The reason for it lies in its size and military style. In combination with a Fade finish, it became an iconic mix of straight blade and clean color transition. But what about its rare patterns and how valuable they are? Read forward to know the answers to these and other questions in our M9 Bayonet Fade guide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why the M9 Bayonet Knife Fade Is a Community Favorite?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The M9 Bayonet is based on the real-life M9 multipurpose bayonet used by the U.S. military, which makes it look more authentic and tactical. The most noticeable detail is its long, broad blade. This large M9 Bayonet canvas is perfect for intricate and vibrant skin finishes, such as Fade and Marble Fade. The knife model offers a powerful and imposing aesthetic that appeals to collectors and pro players who prefer a no-nonsense design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Origins of the M9 Bayonet Fade<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Valve introduced <a href=\"https:\/\/shadowpay.com\/csgo-skins-center\/m9-bayonet-fade\">M9 Bayonet knife Fade<\/a> in CS2 (originally CS:GO) on August 14, 2013, as part of the &#8220;The Arms Deal&#8221; update.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Players can find that skin in several cases:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>CS:GO Weapon Case<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>CS:GO Weapon Case 2<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>CS:GO Weapon Case 3<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>eSports 2013 Case<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>eSports 2013 Winter Case<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>eSports 2014 Summer Case<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Operation Bravo Case<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Operation Phoenix Weapon Case<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Operation Vanguard Weapon Case<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Revolver Case<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Winter Offensive Weapon Case<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>As with all other knives in Counter-Strike, the odds of getting M9 Bayonet Fade through a case opening are approximately 0.26%. The low chance of obtaining one of the knife skins makes it a premium addition to any inventory. Besides, the cost of M9 Bayonet Knife Fade starts from $2,000 and can reach almost $4,000 for sporadic patterns such as 100% Fade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Breaking Down the Fade Effect of M9 Bayonet Skin<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/shadowpay.com\/blog\/skins\/fade-percentage-explained-ultimate-fade-pattern-guide-for-cs2-skins\/\">Fade percentage<\/a> is the factor that directly affects the value of M9 Bayonet Fade. This percentage means the amount of purple and gray on the blade. The less valuable patterns are seeds with low Fade percentage (such as 80%). These patterns have the lowest amount of purple and the highest amount of gray. In contrast to them, 100% Fade (Full Fade) patterns don&#8217;t contain any gray area and offer a perfect, smooth gradient with yellow, red, and purple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Let&#8217;s check the details on the example:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>80% Fade<\/strong>: These patterns are known as partial fades and contain a noticeable amount of gray at the base of the blade. That makes them less desirable since the color gradient doesn&#8217;t cover the entire blade.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>90%-99% Fade<\/strong>: These patterns are known as high-tier seeds with a range from the best to the worst. They could have at least a minimum amount of gray area, which makes them less valuable than 100% Fade patterns.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>100% Fade (Full Fade)<\/strong>: The perfect example of a smooth gradient with no gray area. These patterns are rare and highly sought-after seeds among collectors and players.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>M9 Bayonet Fade Patterns Explained<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The M9 Bayonet Fade patterns are divided into tiers, which means a certain percentage of Fade. For example, there are 100% Fade (Full Fade), 99% Fade (Fake Full Fade), 98%, 97%, and others. The less valuable Fade patterns are 80%. These seeds have the least amount of purple on the blade and the maximum amount of gray. In contrast to them, 100% Fade patterns are the most coveted among players and collectors due to their perfect gradient and maximum amount of purple with no gray area.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"940\" height=\"250\" src=\"https:\/\/shadowpay.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/M9-Bayonet-Fade-Patterns-Explained.jpg\" alt=\"M9 Bayonet Fade Patterns Explained\" class=\"wp-image-5675\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shadowpay.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/M9-Bayonet-Fade-Patterns-Explained.jpg 940w, https:\/\/shadowpay.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/M9-Bayonet-Fade-Patterns-Explained-300x80.jpg 300w, https:\/\/shadowpay.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/M9-Bayonet-Fade-Patterns-Explained-768x204.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 940px) 100vw, 940px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><em>Here we provide a table with the most valuable and rarest M9 Bayonet Fade patterns for a better understanding:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Fade<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Patterns<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>100%<\/td><td>41, 87, 93, 205, 326, 341, 348, 403, 422, 468, 520, 521, 527, 575, 583, 601, 636, 651, 668, 714, 742, 763, 807, 892, 897, 910, 911, 961<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>99%<\/td><td>11, 29, 34, 46, 84, 105, 107, 141, 147, 150, 201, 224, 256, 278, 345, 375, 380, 395, 396, 399, 428, 449, 455, 465, 486, 494, 517, 550, 571, 576, 577, 599, 639, 648, 664, 690, 745, 747, 751, 754, 781, 789, 793, 800, 824, 825, 827, 834, 840, 848, 856, 872, 914, 925, 936, 943, 944, 956, 968, 975, 981<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>98%<\/td><td>43, 64, 80, 130, 136, 137, 145, 172, 173, 181, 211, 223, 229, 236, 249, 282, 283, 308, 313, 314, 358, 381, 401, 435, 447, 462, 466, 482, 511, 514, 566, 572, 597, 608, 640, 657, 665, 703, 712, 726, 759, 813, 838, 849, 881, 891, 917, 940<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>97%<\/td><td>6, 12, 21, 30, 33, 47, 73, 76, 89, 94, 103, 109, 155, 168, 210, 227, 260, 295, 302, 377, 424, 429, 430, 440, 458, 481, 488, 508, 513, 525, 536, 564, 568, 586, 612, 677, 686, 719, 749, 762, 790, 798, 887, 915, 960<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>96%<\/td><td>22, 37, 79, 104, 154, 157, 161, 176, 191, 212, 276, 285, 289, 293, 324, 336, 361, 389, 392, 416, 433, 442, 446, 487, 528, 538, 587, 658, 687, 698, 740, 752, 757, 758, 769, 774, 782, 808, 811, 815, 860, 863, 875, 878, 886, 895, 898, 933, 953, 955, 979, 990, 993<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>95%<\/td><td>18, 23, 57, 63, 78, 111, 117, 179, 187, 273, 277, 299, 312, 323, 342, 376, 382, 421, 431, 549, 588, 596, 633, 645, 666, 697, 737, 760, 802, 804, 806, 821, 835, 851, 866, 884, 885, 901, 902, 916, 921, 942, 974, 984, 995<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>94%<\/td><td>2, 53, 61, 95, 114, 118, 163, 167, 240, 251, 271, 272, 291, 294, 298, 301, 318, 343, 414, 427, 437, 453, 470, 475, 491, 512, 518, 556, 573, 584, 592, 604, 654, 661, 695, 738, 801, 828, 829, 864, 903, 904, 912, 920, 924, 946, 947, 967, 978, 991, 996<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>93%<\/td><td>10, 38, 50, 65, 67, 91, 97, 139, 140, 175, 207, 228, 255, 300, 357, 379, 390, 439, 533, 554, 567, 613, 617, 629, 641, 676, 729, 734, 735, 741, 765, 778, 797, 823, 837, 841, 950, 964<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>92%<\/td><td>19, 25, 40, 51, 52, 55, 69, 82, 85, 124, 133, 200, 214, 297, 327, 346, 347, 363, 365, 460, 548, 619, 625, 635, 644, 662, 700, 707, 718, 722, 799, 814, 819, 830, 831, 836, 847, 850, 870, 877, 879, 888, 889, 900, 905, 963, 970<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>91%<\/td><td>26, 36, 56, 70, 74, 81, 86, 99, 123, 128, 192, 199, 215, 239, 245, 257, 264, 267, 270, 316, 319, 322, 331, 350, 367, 418, 501, 524, 543, 563, 565, 615, 620, 643, 713, 724, 775, 786, 842, 880, 882, 906, 932, 934, 938, 945, 957<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>90%<\/td><td>15, 35, 92, 100, 120, 131, 144, 158, 180, 225, 247, 261, 268, 288, 305, 320, 338, 366, 391, 420, 426, 456, 474, 495, 500, 503, 505, 509, 581, 609, 618, 622, 623, 671, 682, 704, 748, 755, 768, 771, 779, 833, 937, 965, 985<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Comparing Fades: M9 Bayonet Fade vs. M9 Bayonet Marble Fade<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>M9 Bayonet Marble Fade is a close alternative to M9 Bayonet Fade. Valve introduced it almost two years after Fade, on January 8, 2015, as part of the Chroma Case, alongside the &#8220;Full Spectrum&#8221; update.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Marble Fade also features a gorgeous combination of colors, but with a key design difference. There is a smooth gradient for Fade, and the rarest patterns contain the highest number of purple. For Marble Fade, the design includes swirls of red, blue, and yellow. One of the best M9 Bayonet Marble Fade seed patterns, also known as Fire and Ice, contains an equal (or close to) amount of red and blue and no yellow. The best example is pattern #412.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite the captivating design of M9 Bayonet Marble Fade, the price of that skin is relatively lower than that of M9 Bayonet Fade. Still, Fade and Marble Fade finishes are highly coveted among collectors, who seek both variations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Float Values and Condition Impact<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>M9 Bayonet Fade is available in two wear levels: Factory New and Minimal Wear. The float value ranges from 0.00 as the best condition to 0.08 as the worst possible quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Wear Level<\/strong><\/td><td>Factory New<\/td><td>Minimal Wear<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Float Value<\/strong><\/td><td>0.00 &#8211; 0.07<\/td><td>0.07 &#8211; 0.08<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The float and wear levels directly affect the cost of the skin due to the wear signs, such as scratches. Still, some offers are highly desirable when a skin in Minimal Wear quality has minimal wear signs. However, the lowest <a href=\"https:\/\/blast.tv\/article\/what-is-float-value-and-wear-levels-for-skins-in-cs2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">float values<\/a> stay as the most coveted. The difference in price between available quality values could range from $100 to over $400.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>M9 Bayonet Fade Price Analysis<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The M9 Bayonet Fade price is another part of our guide. And, of course, it&#8217;s also essential to know the cost of such an adorable design. The actual price for the standard version ranges from $2,000 to $2,700, depending on the platform you purchase it on, float level, wear quality, and the availability of the StatTrack system. Due to Fade finishes, the StatTrack counter diminishes the skin&#8217;s appeal and its value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Here, we provide a table with an average price for a better understanding:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Factory New<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Minimal Wear<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Standard version<\/strong><\/td><td>$2,670<\/td><td>$2,240<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>StatTrack version<\/strong><\/td><td>$2,190<\/td><td>$2,090<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The price of rare patterns could be a little higher than standard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Here is a short list of current offers on marketplaces:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>99% Fade: $3,330<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>98% Fade: $2,570 &#8211; $2,800 (both ST and non-ST versions)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>97% Fade: $2,830<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>95% Fade: $2,260 (ST version)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>91% Fade: $2,500 (ST version)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>84% Fade: $2,230 (ST version)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>81% Fade: $2,930<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The M9 Bayonet Fade price could change due to different factors, such as player demand, tournaments, the popularity of a certain skin in the pro player&#8217;s inventory, or even the announcement of a new update \/ new version of Counter-Strike. M9 Bayonet Fade and its rare patterns aren&#8217;t an exception to the rules. For example, after news about a CS2 release, its price grew almost twice from $1,300 to $2,400.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Wrapping Up!<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>M9 Bayonet is one of the most popular knives in CS2 due to its long blade and military-inspired look. With a Fade finish, it could cost a few thousand dollars, which makes it a great addition to inventory. Using our M9 Bayonet Fade guide, you can find a perfect variant on the market that suits you best, or check a pattern you get through a case opening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As always, remember to explore other guides on the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/shadowpay.com\/blog\/\">ShadowPay Blog<\/a>.
