CASE KNIVES
High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESThe CIVIVI Baby Banter in Green G-10 punches well above its weight, offering rock-solid performance in a compact, everyday-carry package. Designed by Ben Petersen, this knife was built for utility, comfort, and control—without the bulk. It’s proof that good design and real-world function don’t require a big footprint.
The 2.34-inch drop point blade is crafted from Nitro-V stainless steel, known for its excellent edge retention and corrosion resistance. Finished in a rugged stonewash, the blade shrugs off scratches from daily use and keeps that working look going strong. It’s razor sharp out of the box and shaped for precision, whether you’re slicing rope, breaking down boxes, or handling fine detail work.
CIVIVI’s smooth caged ceramic ball bearing pivot ensures lightning-fast blade deployment with ambidextrous thumb studs, no matter which hand you favor. The linerlock is secure, easy to disengage, and built to hold strong through repeated use.
The textured green G-10 handle scales are grippy without being aggressive, offering confident control even when wet. The slim profile disappears in your pocket, while the stainless steel pocket clip gives you ambidextrous carry options. At just over three inches closed and weighing 1.99 ounces, it’s compact enough for daily carry but built with enough grit to handle real work.
Thoughtful touches like the lanyard hole and solid ergonomics prove the Baby Banter was designed by someone who carries a knife daily. Lightweight, dependable, and purpose-driven, this is a small knife you’ll reach for again and again.
