Thanks for the heads up on this. I bought one of these for my nephew who only has the use of his left arm from a stroke. The super lock is pretty good, but a little stiff now. I'm sure it will loosen up. I instructed Junior to open and close it a few hundred times. My only beef with the knife, is I hate holes in the side of knives, but wouldn't replace the scales as I think that kind of tuxedo micarta is really sharp.

Phenomenal knife. I opted for the ivory g10 and Damascus spec, which makes it a bit more of a looker than a user in my case.. but I love this spec too so I might just have to bite the bullet and buy another at some point 😅 Civivi does make milled titanium clips that you can purchase, and that was a welcome upgrade to this guy. You forfeit the deep carry but it elevates the aesthetic of the knife a bit, and it still rides well in the pocket

Just received mine yesterday. Super fidgity. Its now my fourth Civivi and my favorite brand to collect. I will say, the bill of the clip is oddly higher than on all my other Civivi's. Also, if I could change one thing it would be moving the clip more centered, or even to the opposide side of the scale to fit in the pocket closer to the seam.

I got the white version and I‘ve got a tiny amount of bladeplay. I don‘t pay as much attention to clips as you do, but I dislike it as well. It‘s to strong for my taste - and for this the dumb shape comes in handy so you can bend it upward more easily when trying to put it on your pocket. I prefer to be able to take the lock out, for some reason. You just gotta remove one pin to make it do that. Yup, sometimes it will now come out if I don‘t want it to, but only when I‘m fidgeting with it, so it doesn’t matter at all. What I don’t like, is how hard the blade slaps at the stoppin when closing it. AND I really don‘t like how the lock feels on the fingertip. A little bit of fidgeting and your fingertips will hurt - even though it’s a relatively wide area. But just as you I really love the knife, though I think the pricepoint you‘re getting if for is more appropriate than what they‘re asking in germany for.

Just scooped one of these up. Found the same thing with my pocket clip so I just cannibalized one off of my Quibit. My favorite part of this knife is the santoku style blade/handle profile. I use my folding knives for cutting up food daily and have been on the lookout for something like the KUF but more fidgety. This fits the bill perfectly. I have tons of high end blades but I keep coming back to the more affordable Civivi stuff, they just seem to get it.
