Biophase Pocket Knife for Men, 3.48" Damascus Blade, C23083C-DS1

Absolutely incredible knife, a friend referred me to civivi and I am not disappointed at all. The biophase is razor sharp (learned that the hard way already 😂) and is very well balanced with a centre of gravity right in the middle. Also is the lightest knife I have ever held. I cannot begin to describe it. I really love the button lock mechanism it’s something new that I haven’t seen before and I find it really neat. What more can I say? It’s a beautiful EDC that can be used in a variety of different jobs. The clip is very sturdy as well (a problem I have had with past knives). Not to mention it’s just sexy as hell. Little bit pricey but great value for what you get.

I bought this for myself after buying one for a friend for Father's Day. I love it. It's a very substantial knife in Nitro-V blade steel, but weighs next to nothing. It's Civivi so you get that We Knife quality for a price thats more affordable on a budget. And it's sharp! With plenty of opening options, button lock, flipper tab, etc. And the hollow grind looks and feels amazing!

I've purchased 7 EDC folding knives over the past couple/few months and never once did something make me have an audible noise when I opened the package - until this one. In burgandy. It is visually fantastic, super sharp and weighs less than 2.5 lbs. Very playfull. I am extrememly happy with this purchase.

I was amazed at how nice this knife is, it’s very lightweight and very sharp right out of the box. I’ve bought several knives lately and this is my favorite one to every day carry. I’d definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a good carry knife

Wow! I purchased two of these knives.I have been a serious knife collector for about 75 years, I own about 3,000 knives, some costing a few thousand dollars. THIS knife is my EDC! It's EXTREMELY light in weight, very sharp and opens/closes SO smoothly. I highly, highly recommend this knife!👍🏻👍🏻

This knife has an amazing design and incredible fit and finish. It's in ultra light category but still packs a large usable blade. Lighter than the mini sheepdog micarta and only slightly heavier than the Benchmade Pardue.Fit and finish of this knife and Civivis in general are crazy. I've had Benchmades, ZTs, Spydercos, Emersons, etc over the years. This is better hands down. No cheap nylon washers and scales like the Emersons, rough edges of some ZTs, etc.Design is perfection. Button lock with flipper is like Benchmade but easier to open. Flipper tab is small and unobtrusive when open. Even the skeletonization on the blade are recessed and chamfered.This might not seem like much, but it's huge if you actually use the knife. Food won't get trapped in the holes like the unchamfered Spyderco holes.This is all without even considering the incredible price. Value is unbeatable vs the crazy prices Benchmade and others are charging these days. If you're a non knife person, get this instead of others like Gerber or Kershaw. Those are a joke vs Civivi.I grabbed some knives I had onhand for a size comparison. Weight is 2.62oz (74.26g). Tip to pivot center is 100mm.

Super light frame and very sharp! Sharpest blade I have and holds an edge very well. Very light in the hand, almost weightless. Flips like butter. I carry it everyday and it is well used. Other than having to clean it once in awhile, I rarely have to touch up the edge.

I purchased the Biophase as a replacement for the EDC I've been carrying for a year and a half. A full size Praxis with Ultem handle and dull black finish.The Biophase is an excellent knife, I spent many hours making the decision to change.Under a hundred bucks, i think its the best EDC you can buy is CIvivi. I just had to decide what model.I watched the videos, reviews of dozens of knives. I went with the Biophase, primarily because it's light. Undet 3 Oz. The weight doesn't compromise the design or quality. It does have a hint of Gas Station when you first see it, not after you've held it. The skeleton blade, frame, and handle reduce the weight, not the integrity of the knife.I like the weight and feel of the Praxis better than the Biophase. I open, close and used that knife with one hand like an extension of my hand. Took me 1 or 2 days to get used to it, I've never sharpened it, won't slice paper, but it's far from dull.My previous knife is an outstandingly well designed and manufactured product. Nothing I've bought in the price range is built as well. SOLID, FLAWLESS, PRECISE, SMOOTH, BALANCED. I paid $350 for a similar Benchmade, It's not worth 4 times the price, the Civivi after 18 months has some wear, tiny nicks. The knife operates perfect. Bearings, lock, blade tightness, no blade wobble. I've pried, thrown it into a target a couple dozen times, stripped wires, I used this knife a dozen times a day, I'd miss it more than my cell phone if I left it ar home. Sticking with Civivi for my EDC.All that being said, I'd choose the Praxis over the Biophase. The blade weight is too light. It's balanced well for the weight, but it doesn't have enough weight to open the knife reliably at the speed I'm used to even though the action itself Is looser than the Praxis. I have medium size hands and the knife size is perfect for me, but I'm missing the feel of the blade weight, it will not open as fast and as solid and the Praxis. I also thought I had to have button lock this time around, I never minded the frame lock, I'm a left and can close it one handed without giving it any thought.In short, I'm keeping the Biophase, but I'm going buy a different Civivi for my EDC, something with a little more weight.I added a video and the Biophase doesn't have the "SNAP" the Praxis does. You cant see it, but you hear it, and definitely feel it. I used the Praxis a dozen times a day since I got it from Amazon, I rarely will review a product this well, it's really that good.
