CIVIVI Incisor II Pocket Knife

Very nice blade, love the Emerson wave type opening, but it's hard to open in reverse grip if the wave doesn't work. There are multiple ways to open it in forward grip. Flick the thumb stud, which doubles as the wave opener, or use the flipper tab on the other side of the thumb stud. It opens very smoothly. I like the metal (aluminum). And the button lock, which can also be used to open the blade. The grip feels nice, and comfortable.EDIT: I also kinda find it funny that on the label they call it a "Fixed Blade Knife", when it clearly is not. Even the item description calls it a folding knife!

Just received and loving it after one day of playing with this knife. Seems like a great value. Opened flawlessly out of front jeans pocket. Feels great in my hands holding without a finger in the ring. Finger flip deployment also works well and is comfortable. Blade seems plenty sharp out of box. I'm guessing similar knives from the more expensive brands have some advantages, but I can't justify the extra cost for some small marginal benefit. Maybe for operators it makes sense to spend more, perhaps for more durability. For me, this knife seems plenty durable, reliable and capable.

The Incisor 2 does not disappoint. The blade is sharp as heck. Very easy to deploy and bring back in. Very light and love the deep pocket carry clip. Highly would recommend.

This is a great EDC knife! Love the different ways to open it. Button, flipper, thumb hole, and of course the wave. But another way to open this knife is using the flipper to bump it on your thigh or other object like the Bramp feature of the Tarani karambit. The finger ring could be a little thicker which would make it more comfortable, but that's a minor thing. This knife comes sharp and I mean SHARP. Only thing sharper would be a woodworking chisel sharpened on a Japanese waterstone. One slight concern would be carrying it in the right side pocket and bumping the button. This did open the knife on me and I nicked my finger tip when reaching inside my pocket for my wallet. So, before I do that I feel the outside of the pocket to make sure the knife is closed before putting my hand in my pocket.

Great knife but my pocket clip bent and broke the first time i carried it. I had to switch it out with another civvi pocket clip

I mean all the knife stuff (centered blade when closed, strong lock up, sharp out of the box, yada yada) yes it’s great. If this thing came with a wave style Emerson opener it would be the best. Be careful closing it!

This is pretty much a fidget toy! Great blade action whether from pocket opening or using the back flipper. Came really sharp right out the box. Fit and finish is great. Not sure how durable the blade steel is but it's not a regular use abuse knife.I do have smaller hands but still very usable. Would fit larger hands even better. The ring is a good size should fit pretty much anyone.I was so impressed with civvi after I got this I purchased a more usable blade style for everyday use at work (again great fit and finish on that one too.

I've been carrying a Karahawk since day one of availability. I have picked up countless other waved k-bits from different manufacturers over the years. All were inferior to the Karahawk in one way or another. I wanted an easy to carry, lighter blade for shorts days. After over a decade of looking - I found one. And it's fantastic. The quality is beyond reproach - fit and finish: perfect, lockup: solid, action: drop shut perfect, locking: survived multiple spine whack and spine stress tests. If you're a karambit kind of person, then please do yourself a favor and look at this one. I was skeptical of the plunge-lock after almost being brainwashed by knife Youtubers - then I remembered - I was issued a plunge lock auto in the Air Force. I have had countless plunge-lock automatics. None have ever slipped or failed. Stop demonizing plunge-locks. When done properly, they're perfectly serviceable - even for a self-defense oriented blade. Just an awesome piece. As functional as it is beautiful and fun to play with. My new EDC.
