Pros & Cons
Pros
Once you clean it up and break it in, the button action smooths itself out and it's less sticky and gritty. You won't be disappointed.
The handle is extremely ergonomic, with no hot spots, and is a perfect balance between compact and comfortable. And on the topic of damascus, the steel is fantastic. Posted are a couple pictures for a comparison with my benchmade 940 osborne and bench... Read More

Cons
Leads me to believe this is some sort of etching patter & not 110 layer damascus steel as listed. Media could not be loaded.
Highlights
Quality
I'm pretty amazed by the quality for under $100.
I am very impressed with the build quality from a chinese made knife.
Fast delivery but disappointed with the button lock stick.
I found it hard to reliably activate the button lock with the small cutout.
Price
It fits in my hand perfect and is a good price considering the blade steel and great civivi reputation.
Closest knife i can compare this to is my 940-1 osborne that cost $300.
Packaging/appearance
First off, the micarta scales are great.
Competitiveness
Civivi tends to offer a lot of features at a fantastic price point.
It's not a protech malibu, but i think civivi has got its own thing here.
Mostly, i would have preferred a more west resistant steel (eg s30v, 35vn, 20cv, etc) but that would have obviously added to the price.
