★ M9 Bayonet | Damascus Steel in Field-Tested (FT) is a Covert M9 Bayonet for CS2 with a light, wavy Damascus steel pattern. It carries the ★ mark and drops from the three cases of the Chroma series. This wear of the ★ M9 Bayonet | Damascus Steel is assigned a float of 0.15 to 0.38, while the whole scale of the skin runs up to 0.50.

What the ★ M9 Bayonet | Damascus Steel looks like in Field-Tested

The blade is dark graphite, with light silvery swirls running across it, as on forged Damascus steel. A saw runs along the spine, and there is a hole near the point. The handle is black-gray and ribbed, and the guard with its ring is the same steel color, so there is nothing outside the gray range.

Valve points out that the M9 Bayonet was designed to be mounted on a rifle but works in close combat as well. In Field-Tested, wear gathers on the sharp point and on the saw teeth. It is fixed at the drop, and the band from 0.15 to 0.38 holds both nearly clean copies and clearly scuffed ones.
