★ Butterfly Knife | Gamma Doppler (Factory New) Emerald

Skin overview

★ Butterfly Knife | Gamma Doppler (Emerald) pairs a solid green marbled blade with black handles that carry pale blue inlays. In Factory New the candy coat stays even from spine to edge, so the dark and light green swirls stay crisp and the blade keeps its glassy depth. This is the condition for buyers who want the Emerald phase exactly as intended, without any steel showing through.

Item type: knife. Covert is the top weapon rarity: usually the most prominent items of a collection or case.

Anodized Multicolored: several colours in the metal coating; it wears little, the colours only dull with use.

The remaining qualities of this skin: Minimal Wear.

Appearance in Factory New

The blade is coated in a deep emerald green with darker and lighter marbled swirls under a glossy candy coat, and the spine and edge pick up bright green highlights. The handles are black with pale blue inlaid channels running along their length, framed by rows of cut-out holes. The pivot pins, the area near the guard and the latch at the end of the handles stay black. The layout of dark and light green on the blade differs from one copy to another, which changes how deep the colour looks. On worn copies the green thins first at the tip and along the cutting edge, where the coat gives way to bare silver steel.

In Factory New the green coat covers the whole blade without gaps, including the tip and the edge. The marbling stays sharp and the gloss is uniform, so the colour looks deep in both light and shadow. The black handles and blue inlays are clean, with no scuffs on the edges. In game the knife reads as a solid, vivid emerald from any angle.
