CIVIVI Folding Pocket Knife Baklash C801H (Double Black)

I have always carried a name brand 3-blade pocket knife. However, I recently needed a larger blabe and was looking for something with a clip to help secure the knife in my pocket. I'll be the first to admit that I'm not much on Chinese knives. But, after watching reviews on budget friendly EDC knives, I decided to try this knife as it seemed to fit my need without breaking the bank.I'll have to say... I'm impressed with this Civivi Backlash. For me... it's the perfect size, fits well in my pocket with the deep pocket clip which is nice with counter sunk screws so there is no catching or ripping pants material. It is easy opening and has a nice tight blade with no play when locked open; and I added my own paracord lanyard to make it easier to grab and give it my own personal touch. I like the black handles and blade and I like the blue colored liners...just looks good to me. Very sharp blade right out of the box.If there's one thing I didn't like, it is the linerlock mechanism....it works fine, but took me a while to get used to it. The more I open and close it....the more I like it...plus it's nice to be able to operate it all one handed. I can't report yet on how long it will hold a sharp edge but we'll see. For me....this is a great knife for the money. I would not hesitate to buy another if needed. Plus,. I might check out some other Civivi knives now that I've used this one.

Not the sharpest knife out of the box but this is a very consistant brand and my go to for my EDC knife. A few minutes on a stone or ceramic rods will make it a shaver. This black on black knife is one of the best looking knives I have owned.Pros:Light weightHolds an edgeSuper smooth actionLocks up rock solidDeep carry reversible pocket clip.Cons:Could have come sharper but better that others I have purshased.

I read a lot of positive reviews about CIVIVI knifes and decided to add one to my collection of folding (flipper) knives. What I like about this knife? Love the weight and balance holding the knife. I do prefer heavier knives and this one fits the bill. The knife is solidly built and appears flawless in construction. The thing that sold be is how easy it is to open with one finger. There is little resistance opening the knife, yet the blade is absolutely solid. Now my favorite flipper knife. And the blade is extremely sharp out of the box. I can’t find any negatives about this excellent knife and highly recommend it. You won’t be disappointed.

An exceptional knife and an astounding value. The same combination I've come to expect from Civivi. The little value brand that could.The Good. Perfectly executed hollow ground blade and near perfect tip design. The G-10 handle texture is surprisingly good and the knife sports hand-filling grip while still managing to look like a modern art peice. The thin-ground blade and stellar ergos allow for well controlled cutting over surprising long periods. The edge isn't perfectly polished but a little light stropping had it whittling hairs.Okay, so on to the fizz.Lately I've kinda been in love with the murdered out, all-black aesthetic on my knives. Not sure why... Maybe my inner ninja is crying out for attention. Who knows. I justify it pretending the black coating helps the blade resist corrosion and general wear and tear. This particular color combo was out of stock for about 6 months. When it came back and I reordered, I realized there was a slight hitch. No more blackwashed blade. It's still black... But it looks to be either a solid black DLC or Cerakote with no stone washing to be found.Granted this is nit-picky, even for me. After a while, the blade will take on its own unique look... and I know there are ways to stonewash a blade yourself...but I kinda wish it was already done since that's what's listed in the description and what appears in the product pic.Or it did right up until a few days after I got mine and the artwork all got updated with the new look. So...yeah...no harm, no foul.All that being said though, this is easily in my top 3 knives (owning 60+).Buy one before they go back out of stock.

WORKS GREAT, CUTS GREAT, HEAVY DUTY THEN I LOST IT.

Very well manufactured. Opening is smooth and quiet. Clip is very functional.

I’m not the type to write reviews but I had to for this, I’ve bought 3 knives from this company and still have 2 and for 50-60 dollars it can’t get much better. The packaging is really nice and I bought one 2 days ago and have had one for 2 years, I got 2 of the baklash knives and the only issue with mine of 2 years is a tiny bit of blade play that is still less play than any gerber or anything of the same price range and when they are brand new. The blade play being so minimal shows me the quality which prompted me to buy more from this company, to get that blade play I used a hammer to pound it through multiple things, I’ve cut tires/seat belts all kinds of stuff and only had to sharpen my blade twice. Overall would recommend, smooth action, good looking, sharp/stays sharp. I have no complaints

Great knife. Thin, light weight, flips open and closes smoothly. Unobtrusive in the pocket.
