Pros

Soft button, as supposed to the altus’s more rigid and “clicky” button. Blade lockup is amazing and is perfectly balanced when closed. Opens easily with the flipper and unlocks smoothly and then drops shut.

I have more than one civivi and considering the price point, they're fantastic knives.

Scales are all well rounded and grip very well, no hot-spots anywhere in particular. Clip is a little awkward because it was set up backwards, he knows it is reversible just hasn't changed it yet.

Keep them clean, sharp and lubricated. Great ergos, blade shape and sharpness out of the box. Stainless steel is relatively easy to sharpen though.

This one is a real gem. Glad i did, this is a keeper. This edc knife is just outstanding!



Cons

This knife seems cheap and flimsy. The blade is loose. Totally defeats the purpose.

Price


Crisp clean action, and the price was great.


I understand why the price is higher than other brands now.


As for negatives, it’s a matter of taste and hand size but given the design, perhaps slightly thicker stock would’ve translated...  Read More

Packaging/appearance


Smooth open/close, fits great in my hands, and the packaging was pretty sleek too.


The edge is, as usual for civivi, shaving sharp out of the box.


It's light weight and sharp right out of the box.

Competitiveness


I think it’s a good value for the money i like the locking mechanism much better than other styles the blade does seem kind of ...  Read More


Looks and feels good, the damascus pattern is a little in your face, but that's the price of wanting the awesome micarta grips.


I use a spyderco sharpmaker on my knives and have gotten hair popping edges on every knife i've sharpened with it.

    I got the jade version with the black blade


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Of course the blade is not of a super steel and the black finish is surely not a dlc coating as the cogent is not an exceptionally expensive pocketknife


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The blade tip is centered and there is zero blade play in my sample


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The pocket clip is the biggest issue for me


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It sticks out a lot and im considering removing it or finding a replacement


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Any cogent kinda rules but the damascus and green micarta is hard to beat


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Slim enough to take to 7590 of american steakdinner events but a wide bowieish blade and micarta literally rougharoundtheedges perfect juxtaposition for a person who wants to flout ridicule dismiss and nullify any false socialclassbased sense of niceness
