The M9 Bayonet is a special decorative piece in both Counter-Strike: Global Offensive and Counter-Strike 2, celebrated for its scarcity and exclusively available through select weapon cases. This knife was one of the first five cosmetic blades rolled out in the iconic Arms Deal update, making it a cherished item among players.
