CIVIVI Yonder Small Pocket Knife for EDC, 2.88" 14C28N Blade, Dark Green

It’s a smaller knife for sure. But I was looking for something smaller. This knife feels like quality in your hand with the nice hefty weight of brass and wood. But not uncomfortable in the pocket at all. Smooth opening, and very sharp both blade and tip. Beautiful to look at and fully functional for most daily tasks expected of a pocket knife.

First off, I got the Yonder in dark green and let me tell you this knife looks great. The feel of the knife is also great with the Micarta handles and the jimping on the top. It feels very secure in the hand even with its smaller size. The Crossbar lock mechanism feels rock solid and is silky smooth opening and closing, allowing for easy one hand operation. There’s also zero wiggle between the blade and handle. The knife is light weight yet still somehow feels substantial in the hand. Civivi put out a great knife with the Yonder and I can see why it won Best Buy of the year. It has quickly become my go to EDC knife. For its price point it’s hard to beat. I honestly can’t find anything bad to say about it. It even comes in a nice case with some stickers and other swag. If your thinking about this knife just buy it, you won’t be disappointed!

Excellent every day carry! Very sharp! Easy to open and close, great knife even when compared to those cost 3-4x more

Not a bad knife came really sharp! But dulled out pretty fast, I’ve had it for over a year and carry it every day, it’s light and discreet I don’t notice it. Very sturdy, still no blade play or rust now that I think about it I’ve never even needed to re tighten anything like other knives I’ve owned. I love the black finish on the blade. It’s still fully intact.

The CIVIVI Yonder is a versatile folding pocket knife designed by Zac Whitmore, specifically optimized for everyday carry (EDC) through its compact 2.88-inch blade and lightweight profile. It gained significant industry acclaim by winning the "Best Buy of the Year" award at the 2024 BLADE Show, recognized for its exceptional value and build quality civivi. The knife features a smooth crossbar lock mechanism, allowing for safe, ambidextrous one-handed operation. This pocket knife is smaller than my previous, but you quickly get used to the natural feel in your hand and the quality of the blade. I carry this knife everyday and highly recommend it to all.

It's pretty clear from the reviews that this knife is not for everyone. For me, it's perfect for the things I do daily around the house like cutting boxes, opening plastic wrappings, ripping into rags, etc. It feels pretty sturdy for light to medium tasks like these as the knife is very sharp and easy to handle. I love the quality and feel of the black burlap handle; more on the smooth side than grippy, but definitely textured. The feature that stood out most was the location of the clip and length; level with the rear of the knife and short. Carrying it is very discrete from and pocket, front or back .

Such a cool little knife. Razor sharp out of the box, heavy for its size. Beautiful design.

=Update= Ok, so it's been a bit more than 90 days, but I come with good news. This knife is solid! It's been my work knife since the day I got it and I use it a LOT. Zipties, ceiling tiles, cardboard, drywall, name it. This thing melts! It's easily one of the best knives I've owned. The belly on the blade gives it so much range. The lock makes it a one hand wonder. So easy to carry, too. It sits deep in my pocket next to my arkpro ultra, both always there when I need them, which is often. Very very happy with this knife. I would give it a 6th star if I could. =Original= I only just got the knife 2 seconds ago, but the initial feel is very good. Feels solid, well built, and grippy. Also, it is a gorgeous knife. I'll have to be very stingy with it at work, that's for sure. It cuts very nicely (tried on a few bottles, bags, and boxes), and looks like it'll hold it's edge well over time. I will revisit this review after 90 days or if anything goes critically wrong. I'm getting married in January '26 and I'll need to get 8 more of these for my groomsmen, though I'll be getting them the wood scale Damascus blade version. All my guys are construction/engineer guys, so a good knife is probably the most thoughtful thing I could give them. Maybe they'll even show up for the wedding!

Un buen diseño, la cuchilla es buena y con filo suficiente. El mango un poco pequeño. Pero en general acupa buen espacio en el bolsillo. Buena conservación.
