Civivi Cetos C21025B-3 Folding Knife
The Civivi Cetos C21025B-3 knife is a stylish and functional folding tool for everyday carry (EDC) and outdoor activities. The model was developed by Civivi's in-house designers and introduced in 2022 as part of a collection for those who value a combination of reliability, ergonomics, and attractive appearance. The knife's design is well-thought-out for a wide range of tasks: from precise punctures to neat cutting of materials of various densities.
The blade has a spear point shape with a false edge along 2/3 of its length, which increases penetrating ability and makes the tool effective when working with dense materials. The blade material is 14C28N steel, a stainless grade developed by Sandvik Stainless, known for its optimal combination of corrosion resistance, sharpenability, and strength. The blade hardness is 58-60 HRC, which ensures good edge retention.
The blade's external finish is black stonewash, which gives the knife a neat matte look and hides minor scratches during intensive use. The blade thickness at the spine is 3 mm, combining strength with sufficient thinness of the cutting part for precise work.
The opening mechanism features a steel flipper tab, allowing for quick one-handed blade deployment. Ceramic ball bearings are used inside the mechanism, ensuring smooth action and seamless opening. The blade is secured by a frame lock, providing high reliability when working under load.
The handle combines a Micarta scale on one side for comfort and reduced slippage in the hand, and an exposed stainless steel construction on the other side, which adds rigidity to the product. The knife is equipped with a single-position Tip-Up clip, secured by two screws; the clip's position is fixed, which affects the type of pocket carry.
