The ★ M9 Bayonet | Marble Fadewas introduced with the Chroma Case in January 2015 and quickly became one of the most coveted knife skins in CS2. The finish features a stunning blend of red, blue, and yellow that creates a mesmerizing marble-like effect on the long M9 blade. The M9 Bayonet's extended blade length showcases the Marble Fade finish beautifully, making it one of the best knife types for this particular skin.
The most valuable M9 Marble Fade patterns are Fire & Ice — where the blade displays only red and blue colors with absolutely no yellow visible. True Fire & Ice patterns are determined by specific pattern indices and are well-documented by the CS2 trading community. A True Fire & Ice M9 Marble Fade can be worth 2–5x morethan a standard tri-color pattern in the same condition. "Fake Fire & Ice" patterns have a tiny amount of yellow near the spine and are worth less than true F&I but still carry a significant premium. Use our inspect tool to verify pattern index before purchasing.
Marble Fade has a restricted float range of 0.00–0.12, meaning it only exists in Factory New and Minimal Wear conditions. This limited range means every M9 Marble Fade looks good — but the difference between a 0.00x and a 0.08 float is still significant in terms of blade reflectivity and shine. Ultra-low float copies (0.00x) have a mirror-like finish that collectors pay a premium for.
