Kershaw has seen it's share of the inside of hogs, I'm sure the CIVVI will follow suit.

IMO Civivi knives are the best bang for your buck today. Good steels with good heat treatment : D2, S35vn, smooth opening on bearings, good choice of scales : micarta, G10 and some exotic woods.

I've been carrying a Kershaw Link blackout as an EDC for a couple years. It's similar to the one above. I like that it has the pocket clip and assisted opening. When I reach for it my index finger goes right to that helper tab and it's out and ready for business in 2 seconds flat.

I’ve been carrying a civivi elementum for about 2 years now. Love it! The flipper action is so smooth and fast, you’d think it was spring assisted. When I eventually replace it with another EDC knife, it will likely be another civivi.

I've carried a Kershaw for many years, but you have to make sure its really a Kershaw, there are a lot of knockoffs on the market and its really difficult to tell the difference between them until you discover they will not hold an edge! I had one with that issue I complained to the manufacture, they asked me to send them a closeup Photo of it. I received a reply within 24 hrs, that was in fact a knockoff. When I purchased the real thing and compaired it to mine the differences were very apparent. The box and literature were exactly the same.

I'm pleased with my two, the way they sharpen up, and hold an edge. Workhorse of a knife, hoping the CIVVI holds up as well.

Thinking of getting this Civivi for my Wife for EDC. She has a pink camo Buck knife now but purple is her favorite color. May have to give them a try also. Currently carry a Kershaw but I like new knives.

No, they are made in China. Some Kershaw are too. I only buy the US made Kershaws. One time I bought a China made Kershaw, the spring broke after a couple of months. Civivi are supposed to be very well made knives.

I prefer USA made, but with a global economy it is next to impossible to purchase products that are 100% USA made. But we do our best.

I purchased one before I realised it was Chinese made. I must say the knife is sharp and well made, one of the smoothest opening knifes that I have ever used. We shall see how it holds up around the farm with lots of every day use.

I have used the Kershaw Knockout to clean and skin hogs, it comes through like a champ. The CIVIVI blade seems to be well made and I am confident it will perform well in field dressing and skinning tasks.
