Best M9 Bayonet Skins 2026 — Ranked by Popularity & Price
The ★ M9 Bayonet is CS2's large serrated blade — a clean pull-out and a wide play side that shows pattern. This page ranks ★ M9 Bayonet finishes for 2026 by Steam Market 24-hour trading volume, so you see what is actually changing hands — not a Doppler Ruby screenshot contest.
The list runs from budget M9s like ★ M9 Bayonet | Safari Mesh, ★ M9 Bayonet | Boreal Forest, and ★ M9 Bayonet | Ultraviolet, through workhorses (★ M9 Bayonet | Tiger Tooth, ★ M9 Bayonet | Lore, ★ M9 Bayonet | Autotronic, ★ M9 Bayonet | Marble Fade), up to grails such as ★ M9 Bayonet | Fade, ★ M9 Bayonet | Doppler Sapphire, ★ M9 Bayonet | Doppler Ruby, and ★ M9 Bayonet | Gamma Doppler Emerald. Sort by price or popularity, then open any row for float, wear, and the full price chart.
How We Rank M9 Bayonet Skins
Default order is Steam Market 24h trading volume (what is liquid right now), with live prices from the same database as the rest of TAKE.SKIN. Switch the sort to price if you are shopping a budget, or to 24h gainers if you are watching a spike. Rankings update with the market.
Best M9 Bayonet Skins by Budget
The cheap band is ★ M9 Bayonet | Safari Mesh, ★ M9 Bayonet | Boreal Forest, ★ M9 Bayonet | Forest DDPAT, ★ M9 Bayonet | Ultraviolet, and ★ M9 Bayonet | Night — same pull-out, camo or dark paint. For a dedicated cheapest-first list, use the cheap M9 hub.
In the mid tier, ★ M9 Bayonet | Tiger Tooth, ★ M9 Bayonet | Lore, ★ M9 Bayonet | Autotronic, ★ M9 Bayonet | Marble Fade, and ★ M9 Bayonet | Crimson Web are the finishes most players mean when they say "a real M9."
Grails are ★ M9 Bayonet | Fade, ★ M9 Bayonet | Doppler (Sapphire, Ruby, Black Pearl), and ★ M9 Bayonet | Gamma Doppler Emerald — buy those as collection pieces. The wide blade makes Fade percentage and Crimson Web easier to read than on a Karambit.
Wear, Float, and Pattern on M9s
★ M9 Bayonet | Fade is percentage on that wide play side. ★ M9 Bayonet | Doppler is phase and gem. ★ M9 Bayonet | Crimson Web hunts a full web — a clean play-side web can outprice a higher wear with no web. ★ M9 Bayonet | Case Hardened is blue pattern. Always open the detail page before you pay a gem or "max fade" asking price.
How to Use This List
Use sort and the ranked cards below to scan. Click through for wear, float range, and the price chart. If you only want the cheapest large blade, go to the cheap M9 hub. Comparing claw or flip inspects, use the Karambit or Butterfly hubs.
Pick a color before gloves: the gold of ★ M9 Bayonet | Tiger Tooth, the fade of ★ M9 Bayonet | Fade, or the red web of ★ M9 Bayonet | Crimson Web.
Market Analysis & Budget Guide
In September 2026 this page lists 25 ★ M9 Bayonet finishes by live Steam volume. It is a wide-blade catalog, not a Doppler Ruby screenshot ranking. The numbers below are the same Steam feed as the rest of TAKE.SKIN — not a made-up month-over-month.
From the same Steam feed as the rest of this page, the cheapest row right now is the M9 Bayonet | Safari Mesh (field-tested) at $280.82. The average of this list is $857.06; the top of the slice is $2101.79 (the M9 Bayonet | Doppler Phase 2 (minimal wear)). Use the table, not a remembered number.
Usual M9 Bayonet Bands:
- Tiger Tooth / Lore / Crimson Web: What most players mean by a real M9. The wide blade makes gold and web easier to read.
- Safari Mesh / Boreal Forest: Cheap but the same pull-out. For the floor, use the cheap M9 hub.
- Fade: Percentage on that wide play side. Max fade is its own asking price.
- Doppler / Gamma Doppler: Phase and gem first. Phase 1–4 is not Ruby.
For claw or flip inspects, go to the Karambit or Butterfly Knife hubs. For a budget large blade, start with Safari Mesh or the cheap M9 page.
