★ Bayonet | Doppler Sapphire (Factory New)

“Bayonet | Doppler Sapphire” 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.

The Sapphire finish gives this model deep, saturated blue with lighter reflections and darker transitions. Its overall impression is more unified than the blue-and-dark bands of numbered Doppler artwork. Lighting adds depth to the same blue surface.

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.

Sapphire is a named Doppler variant alongside Ruby and Black Pearl, not a continuation of the numbered phases. On this model, the name separates the sapphire artwork from other blue-looking Doppler examples before condition is compared.

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 very blue Phase 4 does not become Sapphire. This item has its own intended blue finish. The gemstone name identifies the variant rather than replacing assigned skin quality or guaranteeing a particular market value.

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.

Look at the depth of blue across the actual faces and edges of the model. A bright highlight can exaggerate its lightness, while a shadow makes a clean section look dark. Multiple angles reveal the stable artwork between reflections.

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.

The cohesive blue appearance makes Sapphire distinct from pink or green-accented Doppler designs. Compare it with Phase 4 in larger views: a small thumbnail can conceal dark bands and make different variants look deceptively similar.

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.

An image of a blue item beside the word Doppler may still be Phase 4. Confirm Sapphire before comparing this model’s condition and edition. Close views without excessive glare reveal the edges and surface details useful for that comparison.

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 sapphire effect is a coating on metal, not an item made from stone. It is not obtained by treating Phase 4 after receiving it. Trading preserves this Sapphire artwork rather than converting it into another named variant.

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.

Consider preservation independently of how brightly blue appears in the image. A highlight can hide small surface details. The available editions retain Sapphire, and a cleaner condition does not transform a numbered phase into this finish.

Available conditions: Factory New, Minimal Wear.
