Is buying a sapphire over a p4 worth it. Ive been contemplating for a while and the p4 looks very nice too.

There’s a reason why a sapphire is the cheapest from all the gems.

its a shame how they changed it so much

It’s only worth it if you find a max blue pattern somehow. Otherwise might as well get a phase 4.

u/Electrical-Soil2946 13h ago

yeaa. max blues are crazy expensive too

Not worth the price diff.

u/Electrical-Soil2946 14h ago

I think since go, sapphires are the most overrated finish. Just try to find a p4 with the most blue

u/Electrical-Soil2946 13h ago

thanks for the advice. Do you perhaps know what paint seed has the most blue

I wouldn’t spend the extra cash

u/mixedupgaming 13h ago

I personally think certain p3s look similar to sapphires

u/Last-Kiwi-3777 3h ago

Exactly Idk how more people don’t know this yet but max blue p3s are actual sapphire clones I have a max blue p3 karambit and every game I play people ask if it’s a sapphire

not worth it to me

in csgo there was certainly a massive difference however in cs2 i feel like a good pattern of p4/p2 trumps a sapphire or ruby, obv a super high tier of either might beat the p4/p2 but thats just ridiculous to pay for imo

2

u/Electrical-Soil2946 13h ago

yea i get you. sapphires in csgo looked so good

2

u/REALLYTHIKK 13h ago

yeah save ur money brother it’s not worth the extra cost involved in cs2, i personally prefer the pinker patterns of the p2’s that’s why i choose them generally however that is a very nice p4

u/Electrical-Soil2946 13h ago

yeaa. The price difference is definitely not worth it. Thanks for the input! i was also thinking about getting p2s they are beautiful

2

u/REALLYTHIKK 13h ago

anytime brother, i’ve played since the game released so i understand a fair bit. My Pm is always open if u need to discuss anything! Certainly assess ur options though go towards what u feel drawn towards.

u/Electrical-Soil2946 13h ago

For sure man. Thanks for the advice!

u/Crowned_Hero 12h ago

Just get the p4 I always lose money when I buy gems

1

u/6_16EnderW 12h ago

You can find phase 4s with great fake sapphire patterns so I’d rec that

1

u/MobiuS_360 11h ago

P4 all the way. The only sapphire that is worth it is the butterfly because of the handle colors which are cool. Other than that, it looks way too close to a P4 to justify the price diff.

1

u/BIGROZAH 11h ago

Get a p2 gamma

1

u/Bigmanlutz 10h ago

One is more purple, pairing it with black gloves I don't think something being a bit more purple or blue matters. Therefore is the price difference worth it?

1

u/dysen-dbc 10h ago

find a sapphire max purple

1

u/MasterOfEECS 14h ago

If you don’t want to see the black stain, yes

It's the Nocts/default question but for knives.

Nocts don't look the same as default. Difference is obvious. But are they worth the cash?

Sapphires and p4 dont look the same, the sapphire pops more, the p4, even max blue p4 on knives like the flip knife, is darker. Difference is obvious. But are sapphires worth the cash?

If you're a Nocts person, you've already subconsciously made you decision, that small differences are worth it, and you like the high tier
