The karambit's claw-shaped blade carries a Doppler finish, made by swirling black and silver metallic paints in a marbleizing medium and sealing the pattern under a candy coat. Phase 1 is one of the four numbered cuts of that swirl, each isolating a different color zone. The marbling guarantees a unique flow of color on every knife.
