M9 Bayonet | Tiger Tooth

The M9 Bayonet | Tiger Tooth is a premium CS weapon skin based on the classic M9 Bayonet knife design. It uses the original CS:GO (legacy) model, which is still widely recognized by collectors and players who prefer the familiar look of the older knife appearances. The Tiger Tooth pattern is one of the most iconic finishes in the game’s knife skin history, known for its aggressive, high-contrast styling and eye-catching presence in matches.

As a Covert rarity skin, the M9 Bayonet | Tiger Tooth is considered one of the rarer knife options available through normal in-game drops. While exact drop rates are not publicly guaranteed for each individual item, Covert knives generally have extremely low odds compared to lower-tier skins. Its desirability is further amplified by the Tiger Tooth pattern, which makes it a frequent target for collectors even among players who already own high-end knife finishes.

This skin is available in two primary wears: Factory New and Minimal Wear. The float range is 0.00–0.08, meaning it can remain visually clean and crisp at the lower end of the spectrum—especially on Factory New examples. StatTrak is available (Yes), allowing the knife to track kills in-game. Souvenir is not available (No), and there are no dedicated “Souvenir” versions tied to this item.

Visually, the Tiger Tooth finish delivers a bold yellow-and-black theme that resembles the stylized striping often associated with tiger markings. The pattern style is defined by Paint Index: 409, and the result is a knife surface that stands out immediately in first-person view as well as in inventory. Players typically value Tiger Tooth knives for their contrast, their signature look, and the way they keep their visual punch even when inspecting from different angles.

To obtain the M9 Bayonet | Tiger Tooth, players typically rely on opening relevant containers. This knife has been found in Chroma Case, Chroma 2 Case, and Chroma 3 Case. There are no specific collection memberships listed for this skin, and it is not reported as found in collections—so the primary route remains crate-based acquisition or market trading through third-party marketplaces.

Among the community, the M9 Bayonet | Tiger Tooth is widely regarded as a standout “dream” knife due to the combination of a sought-after rarity tier and one of the most recognizable finishes in CS history. Its strong visual identity and limited wear options make it a favorite for players who want a high-impact knife without relying on the most niche patterns.
