★ Skeleton Knife | Doppler (Factory New) Phase 3

Skin overview

★ Skeleton Knife | Doppler (Phase 3) is a skeleton-tang knife with a candy-coated blade in deep blue and violet, crossed by a band of teal and green. The dark marbled flecks across the metal make each copy look slightly different. In Factory New the coating is unbroken from the tip to the finger ring, so the colour shift reads cleanly in any light.

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.

Other qualities of this skin: Minimal Wear.

How the skin looks in Factory New

The blade carries the main colour: a deep blue near the edge that shifts into violet toward the spine, with a teal and green streak running diagonally through the middle. Dark marbled flecks are scattered over the whole surface under the glossy candy coat. The same blue-violet finish continues around the three small holes and the finger ring at the base of the blade. The handle is wrapped in black tape, with strips of the painted blue metal showing between the turns and at the pommel around the lanyard hole. On worn copies the coating goes first at the tip and along the cutting edge, then at the rim of the finger ring.

The candy coat is intact across the blade, the holes and the finger ring. The tip and cutting edge show no breaks in colour, and the gloss on the blade stays even. Copies near the top of the range may carry barely visible specks at the very tip that only show on close inspection. In game the knife looks fully clean at any distance.

Factory New wear: float 0–0.07

What to check before buying

• Inspect the tip and cutting edge closely, since this is where the coating breaks first.
• Compare how much teal and green each copy shows against blue and violet, as the balance varies between patterns.
• Check the float position within the range, especially for Minimal Wear copies close to the Factory New boundary.
• See whether the knife carries a name tag and whether it is a StatTrak™ version.

Who the Factory New quality suits

• Collectors who want the coating fully intact from tip to ring.
• Players who inspect their knife often and want no visible marks on the blade.
