CIVIVICetos Folding Knife, 3.48-in 14C28N Blade Spear Point with Coarse Micarta Scale Flipper Knife Frame Lock, Pocket EDC Outdoor Knives for Camping, Hiking, Hunting C21025B-3

What's not to like? Fit and finish with perfect lock up. Blade is very sharp, right out of the packaging. I like frame locks. This one is great. At this price point I can't find any fault. Good steel and holds an edge.

Typical Civivi quality. Opens smooth, came sharp. Love that 14c28n steel. Burlap micarta scale, yes singular, *eyeroll*, is nice both in look and feel.I know it only came with one side with a scale. But in hand I hate when they do singular scale knives. One side is rounded, the other is flat, makes for an odd gripping experience. I have the carbon fiber/damascus version as well, much better than the standard version. Standard version is heavier too.There's nothing wrong with this knife, but personal preference a couple things bother me.

Civivi never fails me. I wanted to pick up this knife because they have discontinued the model, and I am not disappointed. The damascus pattern is like a fingerprint. No two are ever alike. The blade is sharp out of the box, and the weight is good, not too heavy not too light. The flipper and pivot are smooth and easy to deploy, but the frame lock is a tad stiff. The knife feels great in the hand, definitely worth the price. Pick up your Cetos before they're gone!

The CIVIVI Cetos is like that dependable buddy who’s always up for an adventure—just maybe a little too eager to hang on. With its 3.48-inch 14C28N spear point blade, this thing is wicked sharp, slicing through boxes, rope, and whatever else you throw at it like a champ. The coarse Micarta scales give it a rugged, no-slip grip, so even if your hands are sweaty from wrestling a bear (or just a tough jar lid), you’re good to go.The flipper action? Smooth as a fresh jar of peanut butter. CIVIVI always nails their deployment, and the Cetos is no exception. But here’s the kicker—the liner lock can be a pain to disengage. Maybe I just got one with an extra stubborn lock, but sometimes it feels like this knife refuses to let go, making it a little frustrating when trying to close it up quickly.Final Verdict:A sleek, sharp, and well-built EDC knife with a solid blade and a grip that feels great. If the liner lock was easier to deal with, this would be a knockout, but for now—7/10. Maybe mine was just a little tight, but be prepared for a possible workout when closing it. 🔪🔥

This one is a bit of a miss from Civivi. The frame lock will make the blade stick if there is even the slightest pressure from the left or right hand. So you have to actively make sure your fingers are not on it (which is a very small space). Other than that it is a good solid knife. Action is great when you're not blocking the frame lock. Good and snappy. Great for fidgeting. Good weight and very sharp. Comfort is meh. Price was really good for civivi.

I own a few other CIVIVI knives and this one is perfect as well. They are high quality tools that perform well. For the price you pay their knives are hard to beat.

Very nice Damascus and carbon fiber knife. The flamed titanium pocket clip fits as well making it even better. Can’t beat the price and quality. Very very sharp out the box

Awesome knife and it will go in my everyday knife rotation! Sharp as it should be!!!
