Excellent 5th pocket/second knife option
The shape and form factor of this little knife are ideal for light duty tasks and 5th pocket carry. I removed the belt clip and added a small snake knot lanyard to increase it's effective length to about 4", and now it's a perfect second knife or non-threatening office blade.
Great little knife
This is a pretty good little knife. It's legal almost anywhere, it's small, so it's easy to carry. The blade shape is a little odd, so cutting can feel weird. Once you get the hang of it, the front flipper works well. All in all, it's an odd, but cute little knife.
Fun-Size
It’s tiny enough that for a city slicker like me it doesn’t feel weird to carry, fits neatly in that little inner right pocket on your jeans.
The natural G10 looks awesome and the front flip is fun to fidget with.
It is tricky to snap open one handed but doable, might be easier as it breaks in a bit.
All in all I’m very happy with it! 5 stars!
Great knife harder to open
This is a very handy knife with the only negative being the opening mechanism is a bit hard to activate. If this had a bigger flipper it would be a great EDC
I love this little knife...!
I love this little knife a whole lot more than I thought I would when I ordered it. It's very handy to carry around and the only thing I wish was that it was a neck knife because the size and weight would be perfect for that. Maybe they will come out with a fixed blade version of this knife to carry around the neck??? HINT HINT. Ohh and I would love to see this knife offered with…

some premium steel too, say CPM 20cv or something like that?

Great little knife.
A wee bit of fiddling and it becomes very easy to deploy. It's a slip joint that'll flip and the blade can't close on your finger. Great second knife. Sometimes a little knife is precisely what's called for.
Great for what it is
I love this knife. I got it the week after release and I love it. It’s small but it does everything that I need it to do. I bought the jade scaled model but I love this knife so much that I saw the black model had a poor review so I’m reviewing it. It’s a great second option and with a little sharping there is nothing within reason that you can’t get done.
Difficult to use
I was really interested in this, I love little knives. But this front flipper was difficult to deploy, and I couldn't reliably open it.
Compared to how easily my other CIVVI knives run, it was a complete letdown. The serrations on the top of the blade also encourage you to press down on the knife, despite the fact that it's basically a slip joint with absolutely no locking…

mechanism.
Not deploying reliably combined with a non-locking slip joint didn't make me feel comfortable for real world use.
Cool Little Knife
I love front flippers and smaller knives so this was an easy choice. It has a nice design and is perfect for opening boxes, etc. The natural colored scales look cool, too.
