★ Navaja Knife | Doppler Phase 3 (Minimal Wear)

The ★ Navaja Knife | Doppler Phase 3 (Minimal Wear, MW) is a Covert ★ knife finish, a black base marbled with teal and green tones. Minimal Wear is the lower of only two grades this phase reaches, still sitting close to the top of its narrow float band. Most players just call it the navaja doppler phase 3 — or simply the navaja phase 3.

Design

The pattern sets itself apart with teal and green marbling over a black base, a cooler color story than the pink or blue seen elsewhere in the numbered Doppler line. It ships with the flavor line "Getting lost in its color can prove fatal," a fitting note for this finish's own take on the phase concept.

★ Navaja Knife | Doppler Phase 3 (Minimal Wear) Float and Wear

Since Doppler is capped between 0.00 and 0.08, Minimal Wear is as worn as Phase 3 ever gets — a full-range finish at this float would already show real wear, but here the teal-green marbling still reads close to mint. It's a small step down from Factory New (FN) rather than an aged grade. On the float scale, Minimal Wear runs roughly 0.07–0.08.

Navaja Knife | Doppler Phase 3 Rarity

Rarity: Covert ★, the rare special ("knife") tier that sits above every regular weapon grade a case can drop. That scarcity applies equally no matter which of the two available wears a copy carries.

Navaja Knife | Doppler Phase 3 Case and Collection

This phase comes from the Prisma Case and the Prisma 2 Case, alongside the rest of the Doppler line on this knife. The rare-special tier lands at roughly 0.26% per case across the board, which is why most copies change hands on the market rather than coming from a fresh unbox.

Navaja Knife Doppler Phases

This blade is fixed on Phase 3 for good. Doppler runs across several phases, and the gem phases — Ruby, Sapphire, Black Pearl — outrank the numbered Phase 1 through 4 in both rarity and price. Within the numbered set, Phase 2's pink and Phase 4's blue tend to draw more demand than Phase 3's teal-green marbling. Whichever phase a copy is born with never changes, wear or no wear.

StatTrak & Souvenir

This knife also comes as a StatTrak™ version, adding a kill counter that sticks with the item permanently through every trade or sale. Souvenir versions were never made for it — knives simply don't appear in Major-tournament souvenir packages, no matter the phase.

Navaja Knife | Doppler Phase 3 Price

FAQ

Is Minimal Wear a big downgrade from Factory New on Doppler Phase 3?

Not really. With the phase capped at a 0.08 float, Minimal Wear still sits well inside near-mint territory — a modest step down rather than a visibly worn blade. That gap is far smaller than on a full-range knife finish.

Is Doppler Phase 3 a good value pick on the Navaja Knife?

Phase 3's teal-green marbling gives it a distinct look among the numbered phases, and while Phase 2 and Phase 4 tend to see more demand for their saturated pink and blue, Phase 3 still carries the same Covert-tier rarity and StatTrak availability as the rest of the Doppler line.

Does the Navaja Knife Doppler Phase 3 have StatTrak?

Yes, a StatTrak™ version exists with a permanent confirmed-kill counter that follows the knife through trades and sales. There's no Souvenir version, though — knives are never part of Major-tournament souvenir packages, regardless of phase or case.
