★ Stiletto Knife | Doppler (Factory New) Phase 2

Skin overview

★ Stiletto Knife | Doppler (Phase 2) is a slim switchblade whose blade is covered in a pink and magenta metallic finish with darker purple marbling. In Factory New the candy coat is unbroken from the tip to the bolster, so the pink keeps an even, glossy depth. This is the condition for a buyer who wants the colour exactly as the finish was made.

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 long, narrow blade carries the main Doppler effect: a glossy pink and magenta base with darker purple and near-black marbled streaks running along its length. The guard, bolster and pommel cap share the same pink metallic tone, which ties both ends of the knife together. The handle scales stay a muted olive-brown with warm rusty tints, and the pink pins and release button stand out against them. On used copies the coating first thins at the blade tip and along the edge, then on the raised edges of the bolster and pommel.

The blade shows no scratches, and the candy coat keeps its gloss from the tip to the guard. The pink bolster and pommel cap look fully saturated, with clean edges. In game the knife reads as a bright pink flash in the hand at any distance. Higher floats inside this grade may carry a barely visible speck near the tip that is hard to find even on inspection.

What to look at before you buy

• Look at the pattern, since the ratio of bright pink to dark purple marbling on the blade differs from copy to copy.
• Check how close the float is to the clean end of the range if you want the tip fully intact.
• Inspect the blade tip and the bolster rims, as these are the first places where the coating fades.
• Note whether the copy is StatTrak™ or has a name tag, since both change what you are paying for.
