Appearance history
Inaugurated into the virtual armory on the 8th of January, 2015, the Bayonet | Doppler Phase 1 (Bayo P1) emerged alongside the vibrant 'Full Spectrum' update. This particular armament is procurable within the confines of every 'Chroma' case.
Pattern description
Adorned with a smoky semblance of undulating, translucent lines, the blade's metallic hues are a tapestry of dark cerulean, amethyst, and fuchsia, weaving together in gradient harmony. The guard and grip, however, stand in their native form, unembellished.
Effect of float
The Float Value spectrum for this skin extends from the pristine 0.00 to a slightly tarnished 0.08, thereby ensuring the Bayonet | Doppler Phase 1's exclusivity in Factory New and Minimal Wear states. At the zenith of wear, the knife betrays its use with discernible nicks and wear along the spine and blade's edge.
Pattern difference
Intricacies of the pattern index modulate the chromatic balance and the distribution of the dark blue, purple, and pink hues. Knives devoid of pink on the obverse blade are reminiscent of the Bayonet | Doppler Black Pearl and are colloquially distinguished as 'Fake Black Pearl'.
Skin Features
The Bayonet | Doppler Phase 1 is classified as Covert quality. It boasts the availability of a StatTrak variant and is akin in scarcity to phases 3 and 4 of its brethren within the 'Bayonet | Doppler' lineage.
Skin popularity
The 'Doppler Sapphire' variant reigns as a highly coveted skin for the M9 Bayonet, cherished by a legion of enthusiasts. Its rarity, coupled with a lofty valuation, renders it an infrequent spectacle in the gaming arena.
