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

In Valve's wording, the knife is anodized red and lightened with steel mesh. The blade is a saturated red, light steel chamfers run along its edge, a black mesh insert lies in the upper part, and an oval hole shows near the base. The handle and the guard are steel, with a raised ribbed knurl.

Wear settles first on the point, the edge and the raised parts, and the bare steel of the chamfers shows it first. This wear of the ★ M9 Bayonet | Autotronic is allotted the float 0.15 to 0.38.

What to check before buying

When choosing the ★ M9 Bayonet | Autotronic, pay attention to the following:

• float: the band is long, and listings from its edges look different;


• name tag: a name the owner has given the bayonet stays on the item after a sale;


• the wear in the listing title: Factory New and Minimal Wear cost noticeably more.

There is no pattern to choose on the ★ M9 Bayonet | Autotronic, since it is the same on every listing. The float is stretched from 0.15 to 0.38, which shows up on inspection.

Who this wear suits

Buying the ★ M9 Bayonet | Autotronic specifically in Field-Tested is sensible when:

• you want a red blade without a claim to clean chamfers: Factory New costs 1.7 times as much, and that is the price of the edge;


• the copies are identical, so the choice comes down to the float number;


• your CS2 loadout is built around red with a steel handle.
