The CIVIVI Brazen Black Stonewash Tanto Purple is a confident, capable folding knife that brings tactical edge and everyday reliability together in a bold, eye-catching package. With its sharp angles, smooth mechanics, and vibrant handle, this manual folder offers more than just striking looks—it’s built to perform, no matter where your day takes you.
At the heart of the Brazen is a 3.46” tanto blade crafted from tough D2 tool steel. Known for its impressive hardness and edge retention, D2 is a workhorse steel that can take a beating and keep performing. The tanto blade shape offers a reinforced tip that’s ideal for piercing tasks, while the plain edge provides clean, precise slicing. Finished with a black stonewash treatment, the blade resists wear and scuffs while offering a stealthy, rugged aesthetic.
Whether you prefer using the blade flipper or the ambidextrous thumb studs, deploying the Brazen is quick, smooth, and reliable thanks to a caged ceramic ball bearing pivot. The action is fluid and fast, making this knife a joy to operate with either hand. A sturdy linerlock secures the blade firmly in place when open, giving you the confidence to tackle cutting tasks with total control.
The handle is where the Brazen really makes its statement. Made from textured purple G-10, it provides a grippy, secure feel without sacrificing comfort or style. G-10 is a favored material for good reason—it’s lightweight, durable, and resistant to moisture and temperature changes. The handle is reinforced with black stainless steel liners that add rigidity without weighing the knife down. At just 3.82 ounces, the Brazen has a solid in-hand feel but still carries comfortably throughout the day.
With a closed length of 4.52” and an overall length of 7.98”, the Brazen hits that ideal size for everyday carry—compact enough to fit easily in your pocket, but large enough to handle bigger tasks when needed. The tip-up pocket clip offers a secure and accessible carry option, and the knife includes a lanyard hole for added customization or quick retrieval.
CIVIVI has built its reputation on producing high-value knives that punch well above their price point, and the Brazen is a perfect example. Its mix of quality materials, sleek design, and reliable mechanics make it a standout in any collection. Whether you’re looking for a reliable everyday carry folding knife or a striking addition to your gear rotation, the Brazen delivers on both performance and personality.
