CIVIVI Elementum Pocket Knife C907V (Purple)

I'd never heard of the Civivi brand. I assumed it was another one of those generic cheap Chinese brands that just sells the leftovers from factory runs, something like that. Now, there are tons of knife snobs out there who'll probably laugh at me for saying it, but this knife is actually pretty good. And it turns out, the guys who make it seem to actually care about making good knives.The steel itself feels sold, not to brittle, not mushy. It's been holding an edge nicely. Of course, one doesn't judge a knife by the factory edge, that's like judging a TV based on what the picture looked like at Costco—as in, it doesn't at all represent what you're going to get when you use it for real. The only thing the factory edge tells you is that it can *take* an edge, which, well, that's probably most knives you're going to run into.The handle is simple, solid, and comfortable. The blade shape is new to me, I've never owned this style of blade, but is comfortable to use when actually knifing things with a knife that need to be knifed. It's easy to maneuver usefully. Opening and closure is easy and straightforward, no struggling with it at all.The Elementum feels maybe a little heavier than it ought to. I suspect that's a sign of the thickness of the blade, but again, I'm no expert. It's comfortable enough to keep on hand normally, in a purse or even an actual pocket. This is the size of knife that, if you're a chick, you can easily carry if you have one of those "Thanks! It has POCKETS!" garments. As in, you don't need anything huge, just bigger than the average women's pocket.If you carry a purse (or a man bag or whatever, I just call mine a purse) it plops right in there and I'm perfectly happy just letting it swim around in the bottom of the bag. They do give you a simple, kinda cheap-feeling zip up nylon case for it, if you're worried about sand or random junk in the bottom of your bag.Overall, the whole thing feels like—despite not being a big brand—something made with care and attention to detail, using surprisingly decent material. I would gladly buy another Civivi, even though I'd literally never heard of these dudes before I looked them up.

Wonderful knife 🔪

Nice knife. Opens very smoothly. Handle felt good as well. But I opened a beer with it and it scratched 😂🤷‍♂️

Solid construction, sharp out of the box
