Folding Pocket Knife- Praxis Flipper Liner Lock Knife, 3.75" Black Stonewashed Blade with Micarta Handles, Reversible Clip for Everyday Carry Outdoor Use C803G

To me, materials notwithstanding, this is a perfect knife. Perfect size, great ergos, good pocket clip, smooth action, tight lock up, grippy micarta scales, perfect detent, excellent flipper tab, has a lanyard hole. Just an absolutely great all-around knife! Are you getting premium materials? No, but is that necessary? Maybe for some, but if you want an amazing EDC knife you won't go wrong with this knife, especially for the price :)

I really like this knife. I got it after my Gerber Evo crapped out on me. It was definitely weird getting used to a knife more than double the size, but it's probably one of the best decisions that I've ever made. Like everyone says, it comes razor sharp out of the box, and it hasn't really gotten any duller after 3 months. I've chopped through hard plastic, wood, and all sorts of other things with almost no wear. It holds an edge very well. The only inconvenience that I experienced was the pocket clip comming loose. This seems to be common and was mentioned in other reviews. I just tightened it back down and it is good to go again. I will probably locktite the little screws at some point too. The handle is super comfortable and I love the texture. The finger cutouts make a big difference compared to previous knives, especially since the knife is a pretty good size. It plays relatively well with my phone in my pocket and isn't ever too uncomfortable. I tend to wear basketball shorts most of the time so even though my shorts move around a lot it has never come out or even come unclipped a bit. The tension of the clip is a great balance between strength and ease of use. The most interesting part to me is the fact that these are made in China. For $60, it is a damn good knife and the construction is beyond what I'd expect for a budget Chinese knife. Over all, if you need a good EDC knife, this is a great choice. Update: So I'm at the 5 month mark now and I have some significant news. While prying on a peice of plastic, I managed the snap a whole 1/8 inch off of the tip of the blade. I know that knives arent pry tools and shouldn't be used in that way but I was being stupid and it bit me in the behind. So just as a bit of a warning, dont under any circumstances, use this knife as a pry tool. It will 100% snap and leave you without a usable knife.

Really one of Civivi’s gems. The Praxis is the first knife that I got from Civivi, and it has lived up to all the praise. The micarta fells excellent in hand. Nice and lightweight for its size 4.1oz. It comes out of the box extremely sharp with that thin blade profile. The 9cr18mov is a very good steel choice for the price. Extremely corrosive, tough, and good edge retention. The drop point blade makes it so you changer in and make good cuts with the long belly. Great knife overall.

I love this knife, love the handle, love the blade. My only complaint is the clip. Plan on ordering a replacement for it

Nice knife with a great flipper action. Perfect price point for an everyday carry.

Absolutely love this knife! Granted I've only had it for a day, as this is the BRAND NEW black micarta handled version of the Praxis - but if it's even half as good as the numerous other Praxis models I've owned and used for nearly 2 yrs now? I'm going to absolutely love it! It's got the same 3.75 inch, 9cr18MOV, Spear Point Blade with the high, nearly full-flat grind - coming in at just 3mm - so we already know it's super slicey! The only real difference here (between the older Praxis models) is the micarta handles, as opposed to G10. Micarta is often preferred as it tends to offer better grip when wet - which is often when you need the grippiness the most! All in all I highly recommend this knife. Particularly if you want a medium to large, super slicey EDC that offers awesome quality & fit/finish but won't break the bank - this model was just under $43 USD! I'll update down the road if any issues arise, but given how well my other Praxis models have preformed I doubt I'll need to. **Edit/Update as of Feb 8th, 2023** I have had the knife and have been using it daily as my EDC since I bought it nearly a year ago now. Just as I suspected, it's held up very, very well. Have had to sharpen it ONLY twice, which is honestly surprising given the 9CR series (budget) steel. Seems the rumors of WE/Civivi having great heat treatment are true! I will update again if anything changes, but like my other Civivi knives this one also really seems like a great deal! Particularly considering the price is only a few dollars more now since I bought it (it's up to almost $46 as of this posting) Quick Specs: Model Name: Praxis Overall Length: 8.45" / 214mm Blade Length: 3.75" / 95mm Closed Length: 4.7" / 119mm Blade Thickness: 0.12" / 3mm Handle Thickness: 0.51" / 13mm Weight: 4.1oz Blade Style: Spear Point Pocket Clip: Reversible Carry: Tip Up Only Color: Black on Black Action: Ceramic Caged Ball Bearings Opening: Flipper/ Manual Edge Type: Plain/Fine Grind: 5/8 Flat Lock Type: SS Liner Lock Liners: Stainless Steel
