They should stop using $150 thumb studs😂

Budget brands are a great way of fending off knockoffs too. Byrd knives are pretty great as well

Same I'd have loved both, but must admit the 2nd one had such a beautiful smooth opening

The civivi mini praxis is a great knife. Holds a good edge and came really sharp. I recently accidentally cut the back of my hand and it made a clean cut clear through the skin. I’ve got 7 stitches healing up right now. Definitely worth the money I’ll be buying another for my car 😂

Love my budget kershaw cryo & cryo ll.

[jamesholding]

I am in love with both of my civivi praxis. You just turned me on to that premium version. I MUST HAVE!

[ShelbyvsViper]

My Praxis is one of my favorite knives. Talk about fall shut!!!. Man it’s so good on its ceramic bearings. I have mine in black Micarta with black blade. Sweet, sweet sweet.

Qubit is my current EDC and favorite budget knife out today. Pyrite reverse tanto before that

[inmanshane]

I had no idea civivi was a budget brand if another company! Cool! 😮

The s35 is kaviso doing. They have tons of collaborations and the most premium is always done in s35. Idk if it’s to try and lower the cost or what because we all know if this was just We knives that blade would 99% chance being 20cv

I have the regular Praxis, but the mini one with wood handles and a damascus blade that is coming out soon looks really appealing to me for under $60.

The budget version is fine in my opinion. I have budget, mid-range and high-end knives. There is a point of diminishing returns. Here is a case in point.

[ryanjones]

Civiv and Kizer are so awesome imo
Oh and victorinox!

[divinesoul]

Just picked up the mini Praxis and it hasn't left my pocket!

[JimmyJones]

I wonder if anybody misses the proprietary hardware WE used to use? Thanks again!!!!

[dasauceman]

my civivi praxis stays in my pocket for everything, definitely wish the pocket clip was a little sturdier, but the replacements arent expensive.

[paulsidney]

What do you all think about Kershaw knives. This is the knife that I've bought twice two different styles. Came very sharp and it's a quick opening blade.

i just bought the civivi praxis mini and i love it but it is the budget version

[BigALdeek]

I just need to open mail. I got the Civivi praxis it was $90 black aluminum with Damascus blade. One question tho I don’t see an inner liner just the black aluminum frame.
