Civivi Cogent C20038D-1 Folding Knife

Civivi Cogent C20038D-1 is a high-quality folding knife for everyday carry (EDC), introduced in 2021 as part of Civivi's line of pocket tools. This model combines thoughtful ergonomics, reliable locking, and professional-grade materials, making it a versatile tool for hiking, camping, and everyday tasks.

When open, the knife has an overall length of 200.1 mm, with a blade length of 88.2 mm. The blade is made of Swedish Sandvik 14C28N stainless steel — known for its high wear and corrosion resistance and good edge retention. The steel hardness is 57-59 HRC, the blade thickness is 3 mm, and the surface finish is blackwash, which provides a matte look and reduces glare. The grind type is flat.

The model features a button lock for secure blade fixation. Opening is achieved in two ways: using a steel flipper or by pressing a spring-loaded button located above the pivot screw, followed by a slight flick of the wrist to lock the blade in the working position. The pivot assembly is built on ceramic ball bearings, ensuring smooth and fast blade action.

The knife handle is adorned with contoured G10 fiberglass scales with a slight surface texture for a secure grip and comfortable hold regardless of grip type. The handle length is 111.9 mm, and the handle thickness is 13 mm. A deep-carry pocket clip is installed at the tail of the handle, which can be repositioned for right or left-hand use, enhancing carrying convenience.
