★ M9 Bayonet | Tiger Tooth (Factory New)

The ★ M9 Bayonet | Tiger Tooth in Factory New (FN) is an M9 Bayonet for CS2 with an amber-orange blade and dark tiger stripes. It holds Covert rank, with the ★ mark. The knife drops from three cases of the Chroma series: the Chroma Case, the Chroma 2 Case and the Chroma 3 Case. The finish's float ends at 0.08, so the game offers only Factory New and Minimal Wear (MW). Factory New is limited to floats of 0.00 to 0.07.

What the ★ M9 Bayonet | Tiger Tooth looks like in Factory New

The blade is flooded with orange-gold anodizing, and dark brown strokes cross it at a slant like tiger fur. A row of teeth runs along the spine, and a round hole sits in the upper part of the blade. The guard with its ring and the pommel are copper-orange, while the handle itself is dark gray and segmented. Valve says the knife is anodized orange and hand-etched with a tiger pattern, and likens it to the animal: just as rare and just as dangerous.

In Factory New the anodizing is intact along the whole blade, and wear marks settle first on the point and the cutting edge. Wear is determined when the knife drops, and an M9 Bayonet never adds to it.

Where the ★ M9 Bayonet | Tiger Tooth came from

The first case for this finish was the Chroma Case, released on January 8, 2015. Tiger Tooth also sits in the next two cases of the series, the Chroma 2 Case and the Chroma 3 Case.

What to check before buying

These are the points to look at before you buy the ★ M9 Bayonet | Tiger Tooth:

• lot title: both wears, Factory New and Minimal Wear, are sold as separate items;


• name tag: an M9 Bayonet accepts one, but there are no sticker slots;


• edition: a StatTrak M9 Bayonet is cataloged as an item of its own.

In this wear the knife sits in a tight 0.00 to 0.07 band, where one lot is hard to tell from another.

What the ★ M9 Bayonet | Tiger Tooth costs in Factory New

Minimal Wear costs 1.09 times as much as the top wear.

Of the 31 M9 Bayonet finishes with a price in this wear, Tiger Tooth sits in the lower part of the row. Only Stained, Damascus Steel, Freehand and Bright Water are cheaper. Marble Fade costs a fifth more and Urban Masked 18 percent more, while Stained is 7 percent cheaper. The top of the row belongs to Doppler (Ruby), Doppler (Black Pearl) and Gamma Doppler (Emerald), which cost 11 to 13 times as much as Tiger Tooth.

Getting the ★ M9 Bayonet | Tiger Tooth

This M9 Bayonet comes out of the Chroma-series cases, and the wear is decided when you open one. A trade-up contract also leads to a rare special item: five Covert skins from one collection give a knife, but you cannot pick the model or the finish. If you want this particular M9, buy it as a ready listing.

Is there a StatTrak version

A StatTrak version of the ★ M9 Bayonet | Tiger Tooth exists in the game.

Who this wear suits

Factory New is the right buy for the ★ M9 Bayonet | Tiger Tooth in three situations:

• you want an orange M9 with untouched anodizing and an intact edge at the point;


• your CS2 loadout is built on orange and dark gray, and the copper guard repeats the color of the blade;


• you are choosing between the two wears: Minimal Wear costs only 1.09 times as much, so the top wear needs no surcharge.
