Civivi Baby Banter C19068S-5 Folding Knife

Brief description: The Civivi Baby Banter C19068S-5 is a compact pocket EDC knife, created by American designer Ben Petersen as a scaled-down version of the full-sized Civivi Banter. The model is ideal for everyday carry in urban environments due to its small size, light weight, and thoughtful ergonomics.

The 59.4 mm blade is made of high-carbon Nitro-V steel, which contains an increased amount of vanadium and nitrogen for improved corrosion resistance. The steel has a hardness of 59-61 HRC, and the surface is treated with a gray stonewash finish, which reduces metallic glare and makes scratches and fingerprints less noticeable. The grind is flat, ensuring versatility for most everyday tasks.

The blade opens with a 6AL4V titanium thumb stud. A ceramic ball bearing is used inside the mechanism for smooth and reliable action. It is secured by a standard liner lock. For safe operation, the spine has a jimping for the thumb and an index finger choil, which prevent the hand from slipping onto the blade.

The handle is made of G10 fiberglass laminate, a material that does not crack upon impact, and does not lose its shape or color under the influence of sunlight, oils, or acids. The edges of the handle are specially rounded for a comfortable grip, and the handle thickness is 10.3 mm. The tail end features a two-position stainless steel clip and a wide lanyard hole, adding convenience for carrying and the option to attach a lanyard.

Its dimensions and weight make the model an ultralight tool: folded length is 79.3 mm, open length is 138.7 mm, blade thickness is 2.3 mm, and weight is only 56.5 g. The presence of a discreet steel clip allows the knife to be securely fastened in a pocket.
