The CIVIVI Brazen Damascus Tanto brings together refined craftsmanship and bold design in a folding knife that’s built to perform and made to impress. With its striking blade pattern, smooth deployment, and dependable everyday function, it’s the kind of tool that looks just as good in your hand as it performs in the field.
At the core of this knife is a 3.46-inch tanto blade crafted from layered Damascus steel, known for its captivating appearance and reliable cutting performance. The tanto shape is ideal for piercing and precision work, while the Damascus layers add both character and cutting edge strength. This blade isn’t just functional—it’s a piece of steel art that’s ready to get to work.
Opening the Brazen is smooth and intuitive, thanks to ambidextrous thumb studs that make deployment easy whether you’re right- or left-handed. The knife operates as a manual folder, allowing you to enjoy a more controlled, deliberate action. A solid linerlock ensures the blade stays securely open during use, providing confidence and safety with every cut.
The handle is made from coarse black Micarta, offering a natural texture that’s both tough and grippy. Micarta is known for its durability and lightweight feel, and CIVIVI’s treatment gives it a rugged, no-nonsense look that pairs perfectly with the bold lines of the tanto blade. The handle is contoured for comfort and control, fitting naturally in the hand for long-term use without fatigue.
When closed, the knife measures 4.52 inches, and when fully deployed, it stretches to 7.98 inches—striking a balanced profile that feels substantial without being bulky. At just 3.55 ounces, it’s light enough for daily pocket carry, yet solid enough to tackle tougher tasks without hesitation. A tip-up pocket clip keeps it secure and ready for action, while also allowing for discreet and convenient carry.
Whether you're slicing boxes, prepping gear, or just showing off a bit of style, the Brazen Damascus Tanto is ready for the job. Its combination of premium materials, thoughtful ergonomics, and eye-catching aesthetics makes it a favorite among knife enthusiasts and everyday users alike.
