Bayonet | Freehand

Origin Story

The Bayonet | Freehand, introduced on June 16, 2016, as part of the Gamma Exposure update, features a distinctive black and purple design. This unique visual style sets it apart from many other knife finishes. The Freehand's aesthetic focuses on detailed, almost graffiti-like illustrations that cover the weapon's surface.

Drop Chance

Bayonet | Freehand is a knife-tier skin, so standard Valve rarity odds don't apply. Knives drop at a combined rate of approximately 0.26% from supported cases before accounting for which knife type and finish you get. Valve doesn't publish individual knife or phase probabilities.

Skin Condition

Float range 0 to 0.48. Exteriors: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, Battle-Scarred. StatTrak is available in FN, MW, FT, WW, BS.
