CIVIVI Pocket Folding Knife with Button Lock and Thumb Stud Opener, 2.97" Nitro-V Blade Aluminum Handle, Altus Utility Knife for Men Women EDC C20076-6

This is a very nice little knife for the price. Very solid, locks open nicely. Smooth action and great size and feel for every day use. At the price I’ll feel comfortable using it everyday and not worry about damaging a 2 or 3 hundred dollar knife. Sharp out of the box but time will tell on how easy it is to sharpen and how well it holds an edge. Says it’s D2 so should be ok.

This is perfect knife for smaller hands, very sharp, good robust construction and design.

This knife is gorgeous! The fit and finish is stellar, it feels fantastic in the hand and is super sharp! It's also great as a fidget knife. I swapped out the factory pocket clip for the titanium Civivi aftermarket clip. I think it looks a lot better.

After buying and quickly returning a Kubey Barracuda w/S30V, I bought this knife to replace it.The Kubey arrived with not only a dull blade (high-end dull blade), but the blade also had minor little chips along the edge. You could barely see them with the naked eye - except for one that would catch your fingernail if you dragged it across the blade.In contrast, and $100 lower in cost, this CIVIVI Altus with Nitro-V blade was the superior choice for several reasons.Dual deployment choices are fantastic. The button release is my favorite. The Nitro-V blade is like a razor. It cuts so easily that you hardly feel any opposing resistance. The aluminum handle is just fine, not titanium but who really cares? The blade retracts perfectly centered every time. The clip, which I was worried about, is absolutely excellent. It grips well to your pocket yet easy to remove or put back on your pocket. The blade is just under 3 inches which keeps it legal to carry in all 50 states.So there you go, some of the basics and many reasons why this is an excellent affordable yet high quality choice to be your pocket knife. What's not to love?

Came sharp and has held an edge so far. Ended up buying two and gave them to my two sons. The button lock is a great feature not just for fidgeting but also safety. Allows the person using the knife to operate it safely with one hand and decreases the chance of getting your finger caught between the handle and blade. Great work CIVIVI.

Pleasing to hold and use. Ergonomic in all the right ways. Very fidgety and satisfying to open and close. Maybe one slight drawback is simply that there is no index flipper, only a thumb post, used to open this knife. But other than that this knife hits on all points!

My wife really likes it so far. Everything is great so far, ergonomics, fit and finish, quality, ect...The only thing she, and I, are having issues with is the button closure. We're just not use to it (yet) flopping around totally loose when engaged to close the knife. We are used to liner / frame locks that you have to guide back in place. It is how it is supposed to work though so I can't fault the knife. Still a very good knife to have. Oh, it is a bit slick, but my wife works in an office setting so it doesn't bother her. I don't so I prefer a more solid grip on my knives.

It's all about the ceramic bearing, great knife.
