What it needs is a small space milled into the scale, like the tooth pick holder on a Swiss army knife to take a t8 L wrench for blade changes and pivot maintenance

[NitrogenEyes]

I like this for traveling because if you’re flying and don’t want to check a bag, you can take the blade out. Leave it in the bag and easily get a replacement blade almost anywhere when you land.

I have one and aside from the blade change screw, I love it. I don’t *need* $40 utility blade holder. At the same time, no one *needs* a knife over $50, but here we are.

[darriant]

Usually most of the quick releases have a lot of slop, but on this the blade is basically rock solid and no play, well the one I own at least

[Ty]

Picked this up in blue and absolutly love it. Lot of people compain about the screw to remove the blade but dont think thats so much of an issue. Always have my leatherman/bitkit

[aydan]

I absolutely love this one and am glad that it is a fixed blade and not a quick release. Have so many quick release ones and have been wanting something more solid where the blade doesn't always come out from sideways pressure.

On top of that, it is awesome to have one that is more like a standard knife with a smooth botton lock and more deployment options.
Favourite so far!

Long time watcher, first time commentor. I pre-ordered this device, because I generally carry decent knives, but don’t like to use them on junk… I liked the elementum handle and button lock. And yes love the clicks and the clacks, and I can beat this on junk and not feel bad about it. Love it.

[MickBenjamins]

Utility knives are awesome. My “Exceed Designs TIrant razor” is my most used knife, as I definitely dont want to ruin my other knives by cutting boxes and tape with them

[oscarguevara]

I just picked it up and love it. Yes, I got a cheap utility knife, and I had for about a little over a year. Has a good quick release, but it's also sometimes falling apart, so I need to make sure I have screwdriver handy to fix it. I just take the Civi with me everywhere now instead.

[corpuzs]

I have pretty much started a whole separate collection... there's pocket knives and then there's the lovely onslaught of folding utility blades that have been coming out.

[jordanthompson]

I've seen some other reviewers have a complaint that the screw holding the blade will back itself out with use.

[whostolemyuserID]

The screw issue could be easy solved by using a flat head type screw that could be turned using the back of a spare blade.

Some company needs to partner with Milwaukee and make a premium Fast Back

[Szostolini]

I'm getting one for sure. As always, thanks for a great review, Metal Complex!

[hificat]

I got a Reate EXO-U, and I'm done. It's one of the greatest fidget toys I've ever purchased, and a box cutter too.

[jonbeck]

I got one and love it. Has a bit of lock stick but that’s pretty much my experience with almost every button lock knife I’ve tried.

[TheGamerGuy]

Honestly prefer the screw, the Gerber one i use keeps it far more secure than any quick release system I've ever used.

[SMS]

Love my Reate EXO-U. Unfortunately the blade change in this could have been better designed. I've seen issues with the screw not holding the blade properly.

[Cynocehali]

The replacement blades are 3cR. I want one of these to put some sk5 blades on.

[annasoH]

I blind purchased one so thanks for validating my impulsive decisions!
