★ M9 Bayonet | Ultraviolet (Battle-Scarred)

The ★ M9 Bayonet | Ultraviolet in Battle-Scarred (BS) carries a float of 0.45 to 0.80, and above 0.80 the finish has no scale at all. Its rank is Covert, and the name carries the ★ mark. The source of this M9 Bayonet is the Chroma series of cases.

What the ★ M9 Bayonet | Ultraviolet looks like in Battle-Scarred

The blade is dark graphite, with a hole near the tip and serrations along the spine. The guard, ring and pommel are black. The handle is glossy purple with ribbed rings. Valve describes the finish as solid black and solid purple paint on separate parts.

In Battle-Scarred the dark paint on the blade and guard is rubbed back to pale metal, most of all along the edge and the serrated spine. The purple handle is duller than in the higher wears. The wear on this knife was set when it dropped and stays where it is.

Phase and pattern

The ★ M9 Bayonet | Ultraviolet has no pattern variants, so there is nothing to select on that front. Listings differ in float and in the name tag.

What to check before buying

On any listing, look at three things:

• float: the 0.45 to 0.80 band holds very different-looking knives, so the number says more than the wear label;


• handle: the purple rings show how much paint is left;


• name tag: a knife can carry one, and it stays after the purchase.

What the ★ M9 Bayonet | Ultraviolet costs in Battle-Scarred

Rank the Covert M9 Bayonets in this wear and the Ultraviolet lands in the middle, with seven finishes below it and ten above. Freehand and Night are the nearest above. Rust Coat, Scorched and Urban Masked sit below. Case Hardened, Blue Steel and Autotronic take the top.

Against its own other wears, the ladder runs like this:

• Well-Worn sits level with it;


• Field-Tested sits level too;


• Minimal Wear comes in at 1.4 times the price;


• Factory New runs to 4.8 times the price.

Getting the ★ M9 Bayonet | Ultraviolet

Battle-Scarred is a draw from the Chroma series: the Chroma Case, Chroma 2 Case and Chroma 3 Case all contain this knife. Crafting offers another route. Put in five Covert skins of one type and a ★ item from the collections of the inputs comes back, with chance deciding which. Model and finish are not yours to pick, so this knife in Battle-Scarred turns up as a ready listing.

Is there a StatTrak version

Yes. The game has a StatTrak version of the M9 Bayonet | Ultraviolet.

Who this wear suits

Battle-Scarred makes sense in these cases:

• you want a dark M9 Bayonet with a purple handle and can live with a worn blade;


• the CS2 loadout needs the knife to be its only purple item;


• Field-Tested and Well-Worn cost about the same, so the float of the listing settles the choice.
