About the item
Description
“Karambit | Gamma Doppler Phase 4” combines a claw-shaped curved blade with a finger ring on the handle. On this compact blade, the finish follows the curve: the central colour area and the thin strip near the edge look different from those on a long, straight knife.
Gamma Phase 4 combines green and turquoise with lighter lime transitions. A warmer yellow-green area can sit next to a cool section. Their relative placement determines whether this example looks more turquoise or more lime-focused.
History
For the Karambit, Gamma Doppler introduced new artwork on a familiar claw-shaped blade. The finger ring and characteristic grip remained. The history of this finish belongs to the Karambit family and is separate from the model’s original release.
The number identifies a mixed cool-and-lime Gamma Doppler design, not a completed upgrade. It does not imply greater value than earlier numbers. Emerald exists separately rather than becoming a next stage after this Phase 4.
Karambit | Gamma Doppler Phase 4 appeared in the game on Jun 15, 2016.
Rarity
This Karambit is among the rare special items in its relevant cases. The ring and curved shape identify the model; the phase identifies the blade artwork. Neither an unusual angle nor a large bright area changes the skin’s quality.
Lime bands do not create a separate official rarity tier. This remains a numbered Gamma artwork. A green-looking example is not automatically Emerald: identify the mixed design before assessing unusual colour placement or a listed price.
Rarity: Covert.
Characteristics
Inspect the Karambit’s curved blade, sharp tip and base near the handle. A reflection can hide much of this small curved surface. Several angles reveal the colour and edge without relying on one strong highlight.
Check how lime areas meet turquoise and green. A broad light band can dominate the visible side, while one near an edge may be less noticeable. Turning reveals whether the yellow-green colour persists rather than coming from one reflection.
Recognition
The Karambit is recognizable by its claw-shaped blade and finger ring. Its inspection spin shows the finish from different sides. The compact curve gives the artwork a different character from the broad faces of an M9 or Huntsman Knife.
This variant adds light accents to a green palette while retaining cooler turquoise areas. Compared with Phase 3, the lime section gives a different impression. If the model hides that area in one view, another angle can be more informative.
Availability
Check both the main and reverse sides of a listed Karambit. A bright area in one view does not describe the entire curved surface. For price comparisons, match the Karambit model, phase and comparable condition.
Check which side carries the lime area. A preview may emphasize it more than an ordinary view during play. Compare the same model and Phase 4 with matching condition and edition rather than grouping all green listings together.
Origin
This artwork is one of the Karambit’s intended Gamma Doppler variants. Neither the ring nor the curve identifies which particular case produced an example. The finish’s origin is tied to the model, while its journey to the current owner involves later trades.
The lime colour belongs to the intended Gamma Phase 4 artwork. It is neither fading nor the result of Emerald ageing. Together with green and turquoise, it forms one finish whose placement is preserved through trading.
The item can be obtained from these containers: Gamma Case, Gamma 2 Case.
Versions
The standard Karambit and StatTrak edition keep the ring, claw-shaped blade and handling animations. The counter does not affect colour placement. Assess condition on the blade itself rather than treating the handle’s shadow as damage.
Light lime and darker turquoise can reveal surface details differently. Assess several areas rather than one bright patch when choosing condition. Neither the selected edition nor a cleaner surface determines the size of the lime band.
Available conditions: Factory New, Minimal Wear.
