All Bayonet Skins in CS2: Full List, Wear & Doppler Phases
The Bayonet skins in CS2 hit a sweet spot: classic military shape, clean animations, and a skin lineup that ranges from understated to full flex. It’s slimmer than the M9 Bayonet, easier on the eye in first person, and still carries serious clout in a loadout. If you’re choosing your first knife—or refining a collection—this list covers what exists, how finishes behave across wear tiers (FN–BS), and what actually matters when buying.
Featured Snippet: Bayonet Skins at a Glance
Knife type: Bayonet
Wear tiers: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, Battle-Scarred (availability varies by finish)
Highlights: Doppler phases, Gamma Doppler gems, Fade %, Case Hardened patterns
Collector focus: Float range, pattern/seed, consistent edge wear
What Makes the Bayonet Different
The Bayonet’s appeal is simplicity. The blade profile is narrow and readable; the inspect is smooth; the pull-out doesn’t steal screen space. Compared with chunkier knives, it keeps the view clean—especially helpful on darker maps or with darker finishes like Night or Ultraviolet.
Note: The real-world history is cool, but in CS2 the value comes from visuals, wear behavior, and pattern luck—not lore.

Doppler & Gamma Doppler: Phases and Gems
Dopplers are where the Bayonet really shines. Standard Doppler comes in Phases 1–4, each with different balance of dark and bright tones. Gamma Doppler adds neon energy—and the crown jewels:
Sapphire
Ruby
Emerald
Black Pearl
Pro tip: On Dopplers, small float differences matter less than phase and color balance. On Gamma Dopplers, gem identification beats raw wear.
Pattern-Driven Finishes to Watch
Case Hardened: Blue coverage and placement are everything; seed matters more than float.
Slaughter: Named patterns (diamond, heart, angel) still draw eyes.
Fade: High Fade % reads brighter in CS2 lighting.
Concrete examples collectors often compare: Bayonet Doppler Phase 2, Bayonet Gamma Doppler Emerald, and a blue-heavy Bayonet Case Hardened.
Buying & Inspecting Tips
Check float for edge wear—Bayonets show scratches early on the spine and tip.
Inspect in-game before committing; screenshots don’t tell the whole story.
StatTrak: Exists on many finishes; preference varies—don’t overpay unless you want the counter.
For close inspection, community maps are handy. The CS2 Skin Inspect Map on the Steam Workshop lets you rotate, zoom, and compare wear under consistent lighting.

FAQ
Which Bayonet skin is best for value?
Value depends on taste and timing. Non-gem Dopplers and clean Slaughters often balance looks and liquidity.
Do all Bayonet skins come in Factory New?
No. Wear availability varies by finish. Always confirm FN caps before buying.
What matters more: float or pattern?
Pattern rules Case Hardened and Slaughter. Float matters more on solid finishes where scratches show.
Are Doppler phases equally desirable?
Not exactly. Preferences vary, but brighter, balanced phases usually move faster.
Is StatTrak worth paying extra for?
Only if you want it. Many buyers prefer non-StatTrak on knives.
How does CS2 lighting affect Bayonet skins?
CS2 lighting boosts contrast and color pop—great for Dopplers and Fades, harsher on scratched edges.
