About the item
Description
“StatTrak™ Butterfly Knife | Doppler Phase 4” combines a reflective blade with a balisong construction. Two moving handles open around the blade, and inspection turns the knife in the hand. The finish’s appearance therefore depends on both the shape and its movement.
Phase 4 combines blue areas with dark bands, creating a cool and contrasting appearance. Broad blue coverage can look very different from several smaller strips, even though both examples belong to the same intended variant.
History
For the Butterfly Knife, Doppler gave an established balisong a new appearance. Its two handles and opening animations remained. The release of this artwork is separate from the original introduction of the model.
The number completes Doppler’s numbered group rather than marking a final upgrade. Sapphire exists alongside it as a different design. Their shared blue appearance makes the full Phase 4 identification important on this model.
StatTrak™ Butterfly Knife | Doppler Phase 4 appeared in the game on Mar 15, 2017.
Rarity
This Butterfly Knife belongs to the rare special items in its cases. The moving construction identifies the model but does not create a separate quality tier. Assess phase artwork and blade preservation independently of the animations.
Extensive blue coverage does not reclassify this Phase 4 item as Sapphire. The variants remain separate even when their thumbnails look similar. Confirm the finish before assessing an unusually attractive layout or comparing prices.
Rarity: Covert.
Characteristics
Inspect both sides of the Butterfly Knife’s elongated blade and the base beside the pivots. A handle can cover part of the surface during opening. Several positions reveal the entire artwork rather than only the brightest moment of movement.
Look at where blue runs across the surface and how dark areas interrupt it. A highlight can briefly brighten a dark band and suggest more uniform blue. Turning the item reveals the boundaries that persist under different light.
Recognition
The Butterfly Knife is recognizable by its two opening handles and inspection flips. The finish keeps changing its angle to the light, so a still image conveys only part of the appearance. These movements distinguish it from fixed-blade knives with the same finish.
Its appeal comes from visible blue balanced by dark contrast, not only a resemblance to Sapphire. Compared with Phase 3, the overall palette is more blue-focused. Consider the complete artwork rather than one isolated bright strip.
Availability
When comparing Butterfly Knife listings, examine the open blade from both sides. An attractive animation frame does not show every detail near the pivots and tip. Confirm the model and phase before comparing condition and edition.
Check both sides if a broad blue area matters to you. A listing image may favour the best view. Keep Phase 4 and Sapphire comparisons separate, then match condition and edition within the selected design.
Origin
This artwork is an intended Butterfly Knife variant within Doppler. It is not applied through use and does not depend on the number of openings. The balisong model connects the finish to particular cases; trading preserves its blade artwork.
Blue and dark areas belong to one Phase 4 artwork. A dark strip is not evidence of repainting, and a large blue section does not mean the item originated as Sapphire. The pattern is an intended finish on this model.
The item can be obtained from these containers: Spectrum Case, Spectrum 2 Case.
Versions
The standard and StatTrak editions retain the two moving handles, opening animations and chosen finish. The counter records kills; condition describes blade preservation. These properties do not replace one another when choosing a Butterfly Knife.
Distinguish dark artwork from actual surface wear when choosing condition. A small picture can make them look similar. A counter or cleaner surface does not guarantee any particular amount of blue in this Phase 4 example.
Available conditions: Factory New, Minimal Wear.
