★ Bayonet | Autotronic (Field-Tested)

The ★ Bayonet | Autotronic in Field-Tested (FT) is a red CS2 bayonet with a shiny steel edge and a mesh insert in the fuller. Covert rank, with the ★ mark. It drops from the Gamma Case and the Gamma 2 Case. The finish's float runs from 0.00 to 0.85, and there are five wears. The band for this wear of the ★ Bayonet | Autotronic lies between 0.15 and 0.38.

What the ★ Bayonet | Autotronic looks like in Field-Tested

The blade is flooded with a saturated red, which Valve calls anodizing. The red is taken off along the edge, and light steel is left there as a separate strip. A ribbed mesh strip is set into the fuller, and the description says it lightens the knife, while a round hole shows near the point. The handle is dark gray and ridged, with a light gray guard.

On red paint, wear reads better than on steel: scratches at the point and along the edge of the fuller expose light metal. Wear is written into the item at drop, and a bayonet with this finish does not wear down after that. The 0.15 to 0.38 band of the ★ Bayonet | Autotronic leaves room to choose: copies toward 0.15 are cleaner.

What to check before buying

What sets listings of the ★ Bayonet | Autotronic apart:

• float: toward 0.15 the red lacquer is better preserved, at 0.38 the marks are more noticeable;


• design: it is fixed and does not depend on the copy, so there is no need to choose by pattern;


• applied name: a name tag can go on a bayonet, and the inscription stays on the item after the purchase.

What the ★ Bayonet | Autotronic costs in Field-Tested

Factory New costs 2.45 times as much, Minimal Wear 1.25 times. Well-Worn is level, and Battle-Scarred is cheaper by a factor of 1.06.

Getting the ★ Bayonet | Autotronic

A bayonet with this finish drops from two cases, the Gamma Case and the Gamma 2 Case, and the wear comes by chance. A contract works too: five Covert skins from one collection give a rare special item, only the model and the finish in it are random. If you specifically want the red bayonet, take a ready listing.

Is there a StatTrak version

A StatTrak version of the Bayonet | Autotronic exists in the game.

Who this wear suits

Buying the ★ Bayonet | Autotronic in this exact wear makes sense when:

• you want a red bayonet with a gray handle, and Factory New at 2.45 times the price is not required;


• your CS2 loadout is made of red and dark gray, and the blade sets the main spot in it;


• you want a copy without extra marks on the red: for that, pick a listing with a float closer to 0.15.
