The Butterfly Knife | Ultraviolet blends dark tactical styling with vivid purple accents, creating a modern, minimalist aesthetic. Its sleek two-tone design makes it one of the most stylish low-contrast finishes available.
Visual Description
The Ultraviolet finish features a matte-black blade paired with deep purple handle highlights.

During the Butterfly Knife’s spinning animations, the purple accents flash prominently against the dark blade, creating a refined visual rhythm. The overall design feels contemporary and deliberately understated.
History and Origin
Ultraviolet was introduced in early Chroma-themed cosmetic expansions, offering players a sharp, color-driven finish without complex patterns. Its adoption for the Butterfly Knife created a unique hybrid style—stealthy yet vibrant, simple yet visually memorable. This made it a strong choice for players who prefer modern color blocking over saturated effects.
Popularity and Usage
Ultraviolet is popular among players who enjoy purple-themed, neon-inspired, or futuristic inventories. Its minimalist design appeals to competitive players seeking reduced visual noise while still maintaining aesthetic flair. Collectors appreciate its versatility and the way it complements purple weapon skins.
Price Formation Factors
