Civivi Knife P87 G10 Purple, Silver Bead Blasted Nitro-V by Kaila Cumings (C21043-2)

P87 G10 Purple, Silver Bead Blasted unique design by talented American custom knife maker and TV personality Kaili Cumings. The sweeping Reverse Tanto blade made of Nitro-V steel provides exceptional strength for heavy-duty work. The expansive belly from tip to heel and the strikingly sharp hilt that sits exactly in line with the knife's center allow for a variety of both utilitarian and tactical tasks.

Civivi - a sub-brand of WE Knife, a company that produces knives of the highest global quality. Production is on the same production lines as WE, so the highest standard of assembly is maintained.

Nitro-V a new chrome-based martensitic stainless knife steel introduced by New Jersey Steel Baron (NJSB). The manufacturer used the existing superior AEB-L knife steel and upgraded it with nitrogen and vanadium to improve edge performance and achieve high hardness and extreme corrosion resistance, especially crucial in the marine industry and humid environments. Nitro V can be used in diving knives because of its resistance to staining and corrosion. The recommended working hardness is between 58-62HRC, and it has very good impact strength compared to other steels. It is harder than stainless powder steels such as M390, Elmax and S35VN. Therefore, Nitro-V will be a good fit for knives that require good strength.

Blade - Reverse Tanto type with a well-defined belly with Silver Bead Blasted scratch-masking finish. The small thickness of the blade combined with a high flat grind gives excellent cutting edge geometry and extreme cutting performance. Ceramic ball bearings support the smooth operation of the blade's opening mechanism, which can be opened with a double-sided stud in the wedge (Double Thumb Stud) or with a quick index-finger flipper. When opened, the flipper forms a mini-guard to prevent the hand from slipping on the blade. The whole thing is locked with a solid Liner Lock.

Handle - covers made of purple G10, fiberglass pressed with resin. Chamfered edges of the covers eliminate sharp edges for comfort and improve grip confidence. The backspacer is made of the same material as the handle grips. The pivot is decorated with a stylized Civivi brand logo. A two-position, right/left deep carry clip allows you to carry the knife discreetly in your pocket in tip-up position (blade tip up).

Case - the knife is packed in a zippered soft nylon case with the brand's logo for safe storage and transportation of the folder.
