The ★ M9 Bayonet commands premium prices due to several factors: First, knife skins are the rarest drop category in CS2, with approximately 0.26% chance from case openings. Its Covert rarity means only about 0.64% of case openings yield this tier. The Vanilla finish is particularly sought-after for its distinctive appearance, and supply is inherently limited while demand remains high from collectors and players.
Float values in CS2 determine a skin's wear level on a scale from 0.00 (perfect) to 1.00 (maximum wear). This skin cannot be obtained in Factory New condition due to its minimum float of 0.06. The best possible condition is Minimal Wear. Lower float values within any condition category (e.g., 0.01 vs 0.06 in Factory New) result in cleaner appearances and typically command higher prices. For high-value trades, always verify the exact float value using inspection tools.
Prices for the ★ M9 Bayonet vary across marketplaces due to fees, regional pricing, and seller competition.

Investment potential depends on several factors. Knives and gloves historically hold value well due to consistent demand and limited supply. Covert rarity items tend to appreciate over time as cases are opened and supply gradually decreases.

Past performance doesn't guarantee future returns, but the ★ M9 Bayonet has maintained steady trading interest. Diversifying across multiple items typically reduces risk.
