Civivi knife articles and reviews.
A Well Designed Pocket Bowie That May Be Civivi’s Next Classic EDC. Some folder designs seem built around a rather desperate premise: the company needs something new. Others, like this build from Civivi, strike me as instant classics–designs that will likely define a long line of successors. There’s nothing half-baked or desperate about Civivi’s Sinisys. …
The Fixed Blade Version Of The Popular Elementum Folder Delivers From A Value and Performance Standpoint CIVIVI’s Elementum folder is a familiar pocketknife design that’s become a staple for low-profile EDC.
