Introduced with the original CS:GO Weapon Case in August 2013, the Fade finish on the Bayonet is among the oldest knife finishes in the game. It is available from eight of the early CS:GO legacy cases spanning August 2013 through February 2014.
Airbrushed with transparent paints that fade together over a chrome base coat — a conversation piece, Imogen notes. The warm-to-cool fade transition is one of CS2's most iconic finish techniques.
Fade is one of the most sought-after finishes across all knife types in the game; on the Bayonet it commands significant collector interest from both dedicated Bayonet enthusiasts and general fade-finish collectors.
Covert knife — extraordinarily rare from cases. StatTrak versions are available and carry a significant premium.
