Bayonet | Doppler (Factory New)
Relatively unchanged in its design since World War II, the bayonet still retains a place in modern military strategy. Bayonet charges have continued to be effective as recently as the second Gulf War and the war in Afghanistan. It has been painted with black and silver metallic paints using a marbleizing medium, then candy coated.

Description
The Bayonet | Doppler is one of Counter-Strike 2’s most recognized knife finishes, designed around the famous Doppler color-shifting look. Doppler skins have been part of the CS weapon ecosystem for years, and the Bayonet variant became a fan favorite due to its clean silhouette that highlights the pattern’s movement and color transitions. In CS2, the skin continues to be appreciated for its high visual impact and premium feel.
Classified as a Covert rarity, Bayonet | Doppler sits near the top tier of rarity in the game’s skin lineup. Covert items are uncommon, and while exact drop chances aren’t publicly guaranteed in a single fixed figure, they are generally far rarer than consumer or restricted tiers. Availability depends on the specific case/collection you open, plus the resulting wear and finish outcome you receive.
This skin is available in Factory New and Minimal Wear conditions, with a float range of 0 – 0.08. StatTrak™ is available for Bayonet | Doppler, allowing the knife to track kills with a counter feature in-game. A Souvenir version is not available, and there are no additional collection listings tied to this skin on the page (e.g., no dedicated “found in collections” entries).
Visually, the Doppler finish is defined by its vibrant, shifting pattern and prismatic color blocks, controlled by the game’s pattern system (including paint index: 417 for this model). On a Bayonet, the effect tends to stand out strongly along the blade face, making it a popular pick for players who want maximum visual contrast. The overall look is influenced by the CS2 model rendering (CS2 model) and the specific wear condition you receive.
Players typically obtain Bayonet | Doppler through official case openings. It can be found in the Chroma Case, Chroma 2 Case, and Chroma 3 Case. Since knives are among the most sought-after items in CS2, the Doppler finish on a Bayonet is especially appealing for collectors and players looking for an iconic, high-status display piece.
In the community, Bayonet | Doppler is widely regarded as a top-tier “evergreen” knife skin: recognizable, aesthetically striking, and strongly associated with premium inventory displays. Its combination of Covert rarity, limited wear range, and the Doppler finish’s signature color movement makes it a frequent wishlist item for both casual traders and long-time CS players.
