M9 Bayonet | Boreal Forest

★ M9 Bayonet | Boreal Forest is a CS2 knife skin with forest camouflage across its broad blade. Olive, tan and brown patches contrast with a mostly plain gray-olive handle. The muted palette suits players building woodland or military-style loadouts. Regular and StatTrak™ versions are available, with exteriors ranging from Factory New to Battle-Scarred.

Description

★ M9 Bayonet | Boreal Forest gives the M9 Bayonet a camouflage finish built around greens and earth tones. Its Hydrographic finish emphasizes irregular patches rather than a single solid color. The broad blade provides space for overlapping shapes, making the camouflage the main visual feature. Coverage continues onto the guard and circular ring, connecting those parts with the blade. A largely plain handle provides a quieter contrast to the patterned metal. The look suits players who prefer subdued equipment colors rather than bright accents. Buyers can choose between regular and StatTrak versions according to their preferred item type. Comparing the exterior, exact float and inspection image helps narrow that choice to a particular copy.

History and Origin

★ M9 Bayonet | Boreal Forest debuted in CS:GO on August 14, 2013, with the Arms Deal update and CS:GO Weapon Case. Valve created the finish rather than a community designer. The underlying weapon was conceived as a rifle-mounted bayonet that could also serve in close combat. Its case sources also include the eSports 2013 Case, Operation Bravo Case and CS:GO Weapon Case 2. The eSports 2013 Winter Case and Winter Offensive Weapon Case offer the finish as well. Further sources include CS:GO Weapon Case 3, Operation Phoenix Weapon Case and eSports 2014 Summer Case. Operation Vanguard Weapon Case and Revolver Case complete its eligible case lineup. Valve retired the rare drop pool on December 17, 2025, so none of these cases receive new drops. Existing cases remain purchasable and openable, while finished knives can be obtained through marketplace purchases or player trades.

Finish Style

Boreal Forest uses a Hydrographic finish to place forest camouflage across the knife. Olive green and pale green share the pattern with tan, brown and near-black patches. Irregular, overlapping shapes cover the broad blade face rather than forming neat stripes. The camouflage extends onto the guard and its circular ring. Dark recesses accent the sawback teeth along the blade's spine. A narrow light-gray edge follows the cutting side, separating it visually from the camouflage. The muted gray-olive handle has raised ribs divided by dark grooves. Green camouflage accents appear on the pommel. Together, the busy blade and largely plain handle give the finish a patterned front and a restrained grip.

Float Value

The float value for ★ M9 Bayonet | Boreal Forest ranges from 0.06 to 0.80. Available exteriors are Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred. Regular and StatTrak versions exist, but there is no Souvenir version; version choice is separate from exterior condition.

Rarity and Popularity

★ M9 Bayonet | Boreal Forest has the Covert rarity grade. The chance of obtaining this specific skin from the CS:GO Weapon Case is 0.0039%. Retired case drops do not remove existing copies from circulation, so marketplace purchases and player trades remain available.

Why it’s Popular:

• Forest camouflage in muted greens and earth tones

• Busy blade balanced by a largely plain handle

• Camouflage coverage extends onto the guard and circular ring

• Regular and StatTrak versions offer different buying options

Price Range

The live ★ M9 Bayonet | Boreal Forest price range is $240.03 to $1,149.25. These bounds cover the whole skin rather than a particular exterior or version. Factory New carries a notable premium in current comparisons, while worn exteriors offer lower-priced alternatives. StatTrak status adds another distinction, so matching only the exterior is not enough when comparing listings. For a useful CS2 skin price comparison, check the exact float, version and inspection image before choosing a copy.

How to Obtain

1. Buy Directly through Eneba Skins

One of the fastest and most straightforward options is to purchase skins directly through Eneba Skins. You can browse available CS2 skins, compare prices, and choose the items that best fit your budget.

2. Open a Weapon Case

Open an eligible case, such as the CS:GO Weapon Case, Operation Bravo Case or Revolver Case, for a chance at this knife. None of its source cases receive new drops, but existing cases can still be bought and opened. Opening a case does not allow the buyer to select this finish.

3. Buy on the Steam Community Market

Buy an available copy on the Steam Community Market to choose the knife directly rather than relying on a case opening. Compare its exterior, float and regular or StatTrak status before purchasing. Inspect the listed copy to confirm that its appearance matches the intended purchase.

4. Trade with Other Players

Trade with another player for an existing ★ M9 Bayonet | Boreal Forest. Compare the knife's exterior, exact float and StatTrak status with the items offered in exchange. Inspect the proposed copy rather than judging the trade solely by the finish name.

Trading and Investment Considerations

Retired case drops limit case replenishment, but existing cases can still produce new copies of the knife when opened. Compare regular and StatTrak listings by exterior and float before deciding to buy, sell or trade. Future resale demand and price movement remain uncertain, so limited case supply alone does not establish a short-term trading opportunity.

Reasons it Holds Value

• Source cases no longer receive new drops

• Factory New carries a premium in current comparisons

• StatTrak availability provides a distinct version choice

• Valve-created finish with a documented Arms Deal origin

The investment rating is medium: retired case drops support the supply argument, and current prices distinguish Factory New from worn exteriors. The main risk is uncertain resale demand, while existing case openings can still add knives to circulation; neither factor supports promised returns.
