M9 Bayonet | Black Laminate

The M9 Bayonet | Black Laminate is a CS:GO legacy knife skin that remains available in Counter-Strike 2. As a classic knife finish, the Black Laminate theme is known for its dark, industrial look and smooth, modern blade styling—qualities that helped it stay popular with players who prefer stealthy aesthetics over flashy patterns.

In-game, this skin is classified as Covert rarity, which places it among the more exclusive weapon finishes in the CS2 ecosystem. While exact drop chances aren’t publicly confirmed per individual skin, Covert-grade items are generally obtained through case openings rather than direct availability, making M9 Bayonet knives especially sought after. It has a float range of 0–1, meaning it can appear in anything from pristine condition to heavily worn variations.

Players can choose from these wear states: factory-new, minimal-wear, field-tested, well-worn, and battle-scarred. The skin also supports StatTrak™, so you can equip it with the kill-counter feature. Souvenir versions are not available, and there are no confirmed collection listings for this specific item—its most common acquisition route is through cases.

Visually, the Black Laminate finish delivers a predominantly black appearance with a layered, laminate-like texture. The look is designed to feel dark and tactical, with the bayonet’s shape emphasizing contrast between the blade edges and the darker surfaces. The skin uses paint index 567 and is based on the CS:GO (legacy) model, preserving the familiar knife geometry and styling.

To obtain the M9 Bayonet | Black Laminate, players typically look to Gamma 2 Case and Gamma Case. Because it’s a knife in Covert rarity, it tends to be viewed as a premium choice for loadouts—both for collectors who chase specific finishes and for players who want an all-black knife that pairs well with many weapon skins.

Within the CS2 community, the Black Laminate variant is often appreciated for its understated elegance and compatibility with a wide range of playstyles. Rather than relying on bright color accents, it prioritizes a clean, dark presentation—making it a frequent pick for players aiming for a cohesive, “low-profile” inventory look.
