The blade splits along its length: warm gold over the lower half and the sawback teeth, bright blue across the upper half and the point, with the words Heroes of Ukraine engraved along the fuller in gold. The guard is dark and the grip keeps a fine checkered pattern. The M9 Bayonet is a fighting knife adopted by the US Army in 1986; paired with its scabbard it works as a wire cutter.

The view model holds 2,818 polygons against the stock knife’s 1,040, on 40 bones, under fourteen textures: the three stock hand maps, ten separate pieces of the knife including 200×989 and 204×1001 strips for the faces of the blade, and a 64×64 chrome map for the mirrored sheen GoldSrc fakes on metal. The idle runs 360 frames, the draw 30 and the stab 36. The third-person model was rebuilt to 1,512 polygons where the stock one has 112. The archive carries the two models and nothing else: no sounds, and no dropped-knife model, so on the ground it stays standard.
