The blade is painted flat cobalt with the spine and the fuller left steel grey, so the colour reads as a panel laid over bare metal rather than as a finish soaked into it. A small white emblem is stamped on the guard plate, beside the ring by which a bayonet slides onto a rifle barrel.

The view model holds 2,879 polygons against the stock knife’s 1,040, on 38 bones, spread over sixteen textures rather than one atlas: each face of the blade has its own 1024-wide strip, the ring has a 152×641 map, and the hands keep the stock game maps under new file names. There is no chrome map. The idle runs 150 frames and every attack 28. The third-person model was rebuilt to 2,202 polygons where the stock one has 112, and nine knife sounds are in the archive. Nothing replaces the dropped knife, so on the ground it stays standard.
