StatTrak™ Bayonet | Stained (Well-Worn)
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 given a forced patina using lemon and mustard dripped onto the surface.

Description
Bayonet | Stained is a CS2 knife skin based on the CS:GO (legacy) model, introduced as part of the long-running Counter-Strike weapon skin ecosystem. As with many legacy finishes, it carries the familiar CS:GO-era look while remaining fully playable in CS2, giving players a way to bring classic knife styling into today’s inventory.
As a Covert-rarity skin, Bayonet | Stained sits in the game’s higher tier of desirability. Covert items are typically uncommon compared to lower rarities, though exact drop chances are not publicly guaranteed by Valve and can vary based on overall case and pool behavior. In practice, this rarity level contributes to the knife’s strong demand among players looking for premium finishes.
This skin is offered across the standard wear range from 0 to 1, with the following available wears: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, and Battle-Scarred. StatTrak is available for the Bayonet | Stained, allowing owners to track kills with the knife. Souvenir is not available, and the skin is listed as not found in any collections.
Visually, the Stained finish delivers a gritty, irregular coloration intended to resemble dark, worn marks across the blade surface. With paint index 43 and the legacy CS:GO model, the pattern presence and contrast are especially noticeable on knife materials, which is part of what makes the finish feel distinctive at a glance—particularly when comparing different wear states.
Players can obtain Bayonet | Stained from multiple official CS:GO/CS2-era container sources, including: CS:GO Weapon Case, Operation Phoenix Weapon Case, Revolver Case, Operation Bravo Case, eSports 2014 Summer Case, Operation Vanguard Weapon Case, eSports 2013 Winter Case, eSports 2013 Case, Winter Offensive Weapon Case, CS:GO Weapon Case 2, and CS:GO Weapon Case 3. Since it isn’t tied to collections, these cases are the primary route for acquiring the skin.
Among the community, Bayonet knives are already a benchmark for prestige, and the Covert Stained finish adds extra character beyond standard solid-color aesthetics. Its darker, weathered look tends to appeal to players who prefer more rugged styling, and the availability of StatTrak further broadens its appeal for those who want both visual flair and added progression.
