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

Nitro-V stainless chrome-based martensitic 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 - drop point type with an elegant Satin finish. The generous belly extends the length of the cutting edge relative to the length of the blade converging towards the needle-sharp tip of the knife. The small thickness of the blade combined with a high concave grind (Hollow Grind) gives excellent cutting properties combined with high durability. Ceramic ball bearings support the smooth operation of the blade's opening mechanism, which can be opened with a release button located on one of the Handle or a quick flipper flipper. When opened, the flipper forms a mini-guard to prevent the hand from slipping on the blade. A section of the back of the blade is covered with an upper jimping, notched thumb rest for easy control of the knife. The whole thing is locked with a solid button lock. Under the lock button is a spring, providing enough resistance to avoid accidental opening.

ULTEM™ - a plastic belonging to the Polyethermoids family or simply PEI. This material is primarily characterized by high mechanical and impact strength with a very high strength-to-weight ratio. It is also characterized by high thermal resistance (180⁰C) and high chemical resistance to all kinds of solvents (synthetic and natural), lubricants or other chemicals. Adding to this total insensitivity to weather conditions, we get an ideal material for knife handles.

Handle grips made of polished, transparent Ultem™ plastic. All attached to stainless steel liners. Simple, solid construction gives the assurance of many years of use. Open-backed design fixed with steel spacer sleeves reduces weight and facilitates cleaning. The pivot axis is decorated with a stylized Civivi brand logo. The metal one-sided (right) 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 nylon soft pouch with the brand logo for safe carrying and storage of the folder.
