Civivi Banneret C20040D-1 Folding Knife — Description and Features
The Civivi Banneret C20040D-1 folding knife combines the functionality of a versatile EDC tool with a distinctive design from Civivi's in-house designers. This model is engineered for daily use and pleasant operation thanks to its well-thought-out materials and mechanics: the blade is made from Nitro-V steel (an improved version of AEB-L with added nitrogen and vanadium), which enhances corrosion resistance while simplifying sharpening at a hardness of 58-60 HRC. The blade's black stonewash finish provides a matte look and conceals fingerprints, all while maintaining an attractive appearance.
The blade features a classic drop point profile, universally suitable for cutting and piercing, and its 3mm spine thickness makes the blade robust under intensive loads. A thumb ramp on the spine provides additional control and allows for tasks requiring greater force. The grind type is flat, making the knife convenient for various household and outdoor tasks.
The opening mechanism is a flipper with a steel tab: pressing the tab allows for quick and confident blade deployment. Ceramic ball bearings are used in the pivot assembly, ensuring exceptionally smooth blade action. For safety during operation, a frame lock is employed, securely fixing the blade in the open position.
The knife's handle is made of stainless steel with micarta inlays: this material combination enhances the structure's wear resistance, and the rough surface of the micarta ensures a reliable grip. Decorative and functional holes in the handle not only add style but also reduce the knife's overall weight — the model weighs 111.2 g, making it comfortable for everyday carry. For convenient carrying, a two-position steel clip is provided, which can be repositioned to the right or left side of the handle depending on user preference.
