r/Civivi

Just picked up one of these bad boys for $50 CAD waiting for it to be delivered, and wondering what everyone’s thoughts were on this one.
Ps. I like funky little designs.

Slimmed down the scale profile 30% and slight contouring adjustments for better hand-feel and balance. It completely changes the feel to become more premium. Scales are African Blackwood Burl, widely considered the most valuable exotic hardwood and exceptionally hard to find. It’s incredibly expensive, but it completes the Vision Damascus variant perfectly. As usual, photos don’t do the chatoyancy justice.

Had some extra money burning my pocket so finally decided to pick this up. Probably won’t carry too often but it does fit it the pocket well. Surprised with how fidgety this thing is 😅

Hey everyone,

I’m trying to track down and replace my favorite daily carry CIVIVI that was stolen out of my car last year. It doesn't even show up in my order history on House of Knives anymore, so I am 100% certain it has been discontinued.

I don't have a photo of the handle, but I have attached a picture of the actual blade itself alongside a pen for scale. I also attached a screenshot of a CJRB Locust because, when closed, the overall straight, sleek silhouette and visual footprint are almost exactly like the CIVIVI I had.

Here are the major identity markers:

The Blade: Silver/satin finish. It has a razor-straight utility cutting edge with a flat belly that sweeps up sharply at the tip (as seen in the photo).

The Handle: Completely straight with absolutely NO finger grooves. It was very basic, clean, and rectangular—almost like a classic gentleman's pen knife but scaled up to be bigger, heavier, and sturdier. It was not a lightweight knife.

The Hardware: The black handle had highly visible, flat silver metal pins/rivets running along it.

The Lock & Action: It was a smooth liner lock with full, shiny silver steel liners visible on the inside of the handle. It did not have a button lock. It deployed via a smooth flick action using a standard rear flipper tab located at the back of the handle spine. When closed, this tab acts like a small trigger, and the blade rides on smooth ceramic ball bearings to snap open

It was a very nice, classic-looking "man's knife" without any crazy tactical lines or futuristic curves.

If anyone remembers a discontinued 2021–2023 CIVIVI model that fits this exact "straight utility blade + straight riveted handle + front flipper liner lock" description, please let me know so I can start hunting for a replacement. Thanks!
