★ Butterfly Knife | Gamma Doppler Phase 3 (Factory New)

The ★ Butterfly Knife | Gamma Doppler Phase 3 (Factory New) is a Covert ★ knife finish showing green marbling in lighter tones across the blade. Factory New is the lowest-float, crispest grade available, and here that lighter marbling reads at its clearest.

Design

Phase 3 pulls the green marbling into softer, lighter tones compared to its numbered siblings, still distinct from the solid-coat Emerald grail in the same line. That lighter shade gives this phase a different feel from the deeper greens elsewhere in the set.

★ Butterfly Knife | Gamma Doppler Phase 3 (Factory New) Float and Wear

Gamma Doppler is float-capped between 0.00 and 0.08, so only Factory New and Minimal Wear ever exist for this phase — it never ages past a near-mint look on any copy. At Factory New the blade sits at the very bottom of that range, keeping the lighter marbling as legible as it gets. Factory New covers about 0.00–0.07 on the float scale.

Butterfly Knife | Gamma Doppler Phase 3 Rarity

Rarity: Covert ★ — the gold-tier rare special ("knife") slot, not a regular Covert weapon skin. Landing one at all is the hard part; which phase and wear it lands on comes after that.

Butterfly Knife | Gamma Doppler Phase 3 Case and Collection

This phase drops from the Operation Riptide Case and the Dreams & Nightmares Case, the two boxes carrying this knife's Gamma Doppler line. The rare-special ("knife") tier as a whole lands around 0.26% per case opening, so most buyers grab Phase 3 on the market instead of chasing a fresh drop.

Butterfly Knife Gamma Doppler Phases

Gamma Doppler splits into five phases, and this copy is fixed as Phase 3 for good — the phase never changes with wear or trading. Emerald, the solid-green finish with no black, remains the grail of the line and sits far above the numbered Phase 1-4 set in price. Among those numbered phases, the greenest and cleanest examples draw the most demand.

StatTrak & Souvenir

A StatTrak™ version of this knife exists and permanently tracks confirmed kills through any trade or sale. There's no Souvenir version at all — knives never appear in Major-tournament souvenir packages, regardless of case or phase.

Butterfly Knife | Gamma Doppler Phase 3 Price

Factory New sits at the top of this phase's own price ladder, ahead of Minimal Wear, and the phase overall lands in the high-end range for this knife given how thin the market is for Gamma Doppler copies. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

What case is the Butterfly Knife Gamma Doppler Phase 3 in?

It comes from the Operation Riptide Case and the Dreams & Nightmares Case, the two boxes that carry this knife's Gamma Doppler line. Since the rare-special tier only lands around 0.26% of the time, most buyers pick up a specific phase on the market rather than opening cases hoping for one.

Which Gamma Doppler phase is best on the Butterfly Knife?

Emerald is the grail — a solid green finish with no black — and it sits far above the numbered Phase 1-4 lineup in price. Among the numbered phases, the greenest, cleanest examples are the most favored. Each phase is fixed per copy and never changes with wear.

Does the Butterfly Knife Gamma Doppler Phase 3 have StatTrak?

Yes, a StatTrak™ version exists with a permanent confirmed-kill counter that carries through trades and sales. There's no Souvenir version, though — knives are simply never included in Major-tournament souvenir packages, no matter the phase or case.
