★ M9 Bayonet | Forest DDPAT (Field-Tested)

Skin overview

Forest DDPAT gives the M9 Bayonet a muted woodland camouflage made of pixel blocks in earthy greens and sand. In Field-Tested the first scratches appear at the tip, along the edge and on the spine teeth, but the busy pattern hides them well. The camo still reads clearly on the flat of the blade.

Item type: knife. Covert is the top weapon rarity: usually the most prominent items of a collection or case.

Hydrographic: the pattern is applied as a film over the metal; wear rubs it down to the base, starting with raised parts.

How the skin looks in Field-Tested

The blade is covered in a digital camouflage of square blocks in sand, olive, light green and dark forest green, with small brown accents. The pattern runs over the whole blade, including the sawback teeth on the spine and the area around the hole near the tip, while the cutting edge is outlined by a thin dark line.

Scratches become visible at the tip, along the cutting edge and on the sawback teeth, and the guard ring starts to lose paint. The handle ribs may show light scuffs. The centre of the blade still carries a clear camo pattern. In game the wear blends into the busy pattern and mostly shows during inspect.
