★ Butterfly Knife | Gamma Doppler (Factory New) Phase 3

Skin overview

★ Butterfly Knife | Gamma Doppler (Phase 3) pairs a marbled blade in green, teal and blue with black handles that carry bright green inlays. In Factory New the candy-coated finish is uninterrupted from tip to tang, so the marbling shows its full depth and colour shifts. This is the grade for buyers who want the phase exactly as designed, with no marks on the blade.

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.

How the skin looks in Factory New

The blade is covered in a marbled anodized finish: deep green dominates, with teal and blue zones and darker smoky veins running through the pattern. The finish continues onto the tang and the latch area, which show the same green tones. Both handles are black with long green inlays and a row of cut-out holes, and the latch is green. The colours are layered under a candy coat, so the blade has a glossy, deep look. On worn copies the tip and the cutting edge lose the coat first, followed by the spine of the blade, while the handle inlays hold up longer.

The blade shows no visible scratches, and the candy coat is even across the tip, edge and spine. Marbling and colour transitions stay sharp in close inspection. The green handle inlays and black frame are clean. In game, both in hand and during flips, the knife looks exactly like the reference image.

What to check before buying

• Compare the balance of green, teal and blue on the blade, since each Phase 3 pattern distributes the colours differently.
• Look at how much dark marbling covers the blade and whether it sits on the visible side in first-person view.
• Check the float position within the wear range and inspect the tip and cutting edge for scuffs.
• Note whether the copy is StatTrak™ and whether it carries a name tag you want to keep.

Who the Factory New quality suits

• Collectors who want the phase with a fully intact blade.
• Players who inspect their knife often and notice small marks.
• The choice when condition matters as much as the colours.
