★ Bayonet | Doppler Phase 3 (Minimal Wear)

“Bayonet | Doppler Phase 3” keeps the bayonet’s clean outline: a long blade, a small guard and a straight handle. The finish stretches along the blade, so a colour transition reads as a long band rather than a compact patch.

Phase 3 mixes blue and greenish areas with a dark base. The result is a cool, varied appearance rather than one uninterrupted colour. One example may emphasize blue while another reveals more of the green transitions.

For the Bayonet, Doppler added a new appearance to an established model. The straight construction and grip stayed the same; the change was the blade artwork. The release of this finish is separate from the original introduction of the bayonet itself.

This is the cool mixed-colour design within the numbered Doppler group. The Phase 3 name does not describe ageing or a stage reached after the pink variants. The item keeps this design throughout its later ownership.

Bayonet | Doppler Phase 3 appeared in the game on Jan 8, 2015.

This Bayonet belongs to the rare special items in its weapon cases. The long blade does not give it a separate rarity tier from other knife models. The skin’s assigned quality and the particular finish variant describe different properties.

A blue patch does not make this Phase 3 item Sapphire. Greenish transitions and dark sections belong to its mixed artwork. An informal claim of “almost Sapphire” cannot replace an accurate identification of the variant.

Rarity: Covert.

Inspect the Bayonet’s long blade face, tip and base beside the guard. A band of colour can look continuous from one angle and more divided when turned. Looking at the handle alone cannot tell you the condition of the blade.

Compare the balance of blue and green against the dark background. A small patch near an edge looks different from a broad central area. Moderate lighting helps reveal their boundaries without a highlight making different shades look alike.

The Bayonet is recognizable by its elongated outline and restrained, straight construction. Its finish is clearly visible along the long blade. This gives it a different character from a Karambit’s compact curve or a Butterfly Knife’s moving handles.

This phase suits a darker appearance with cool, slightly green accents. It can be confused with Gamma Doppler when only one green area is visible, but the whole design and finish family need to be considered together.

Compare listings for this Bayonet and this finish variant. The M9 Bayonet is a different model despite the similar name. Their blade shapes differ, so a price for one is not a valuation of the other.

Decide whether you prefer stronger blue, more visible green transitions or a mainly dark example. Those choices can look different within Phase 3. Compare this model and phase rather than using a Sapphire or Phase 4 listing as the same item.

This Bayonet finish belongs to the rare knife selection in the relevant cases; it is not applied by the owner. The model and artwork are properties of the existing item. Trading it does not change the blade length or colour placement.

The blue-green artwork is an intended Doppler design, not a mixture of ordinary Doppler and Gamma Doppler. Even a strongly visible green section remains part of this Phase 3 item rather than evidence of a different finish family.

The item can be obtained from these containers: Chroma Case, Chroma 2 Case, Chroma 3 Case.

The standard Bayonet and its StatTrak edition retain the same blade shape and animations. The counter records kills, while condition describes surface preservation. Neither should be confused with the selected finish variant.

Small surface details can disappear in the darker sections of Phase 3. Inspect larger views of transitions and edges before choosing condition. An edition change does not turn this mixed design into the more blue-focused Phase 4.

Available conditions: Factory New, Minimal Wear.
