★ M9 Bayonet | Freehand (Field-Tested)

Skin overview

Freehand is a purple and black finish decorated with metallic marker art, and in Field-Tested it starts to show its use. Light scratches appear along the edge and tip, cutting through the purple to bare metal in places. The doodle pattern stays readable, so the knife keeps its character at a lower grade.

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

Anodized Multicolored: several colours in the metal coating; it wears little, the colours only dull with use.

How the skin looks in Field-Tested

The blade is anodized in a vivid violet with black areas along the spine and near the guard, and the whole surface is covered with silver-white marker doodles: block lettering, circles, swirls and small shapes. The sawback teeth on the spine stay silver and break the pattern with a clean row of metal.

Scratches along the edge and around the tip become noticeable, exposing bare metal through the purple. Light scuffs can reach the lower part of the blade flat. In game the violet colour and the doodles still dominate, and the wear shows mainly on inspect. The spine area, sawback and grip still look mostly intact.
