SHOP CASE KNIVESThe CIVIVI Cogent Button Lock Folding Knife delivers more than cutting performance—it delivers confidence. From the first decisive click of the button lock to the smooth deployment of its blade, the Cogent feels like an extension of your will, designed to respond instantly and reliably whenever you need it. Whether you’re tackling everyday tasks at home, on the job, or in the outdoors, this folding knife blends rugged utility with modern precision, giving you a tool you’ll want at your side day after day.
At its core, the CIVIVI Cogent is built around a premium Sandvik 14C28N stainless steel blade that balances strength, sharpness, and corrosion resistance. The 3.47-inch clip point blade features a versatile partially serrated edge, making it equally effective for clean slicing and tearing through rope, webbing, and other tough materials. A black stonewashed finish not only adds a sleek, understated look but also helps mask the marks of hard use, ensuring your knife maintains a professional appearance.
The action of the Cogent is where it truly shines. Operating on caged ceramic ball bearings, the blade deploys with silky smooth precision, whether opened with the flipper tab or a simple flick of the wrist. The button lock mechanism is tuned for security and ease, resisting accidental openings while providing quick, ambidextrous operation. This combination of fidget-friendly performance and reliable strength makes the Cogent stand out as both a practical tool and a refined companion.
A folding knife must feel as good as it performs, and the Cogent delivers with its textured G-10 handle scales. Contoured for comfort and traction, the black G-10 provides a sure grip even in wet or demanding conditions. Reinforced by blackened stainless steel liners, the handle maintains both strength and balance without adding unnecessary weight. At just 3.82 ounces, it carries light but feels substantial in the hand.
With thoughtful design extending to every detail, the Cogent also includes a reversible deep-carry pocket clip, keeping the knife discreetly secured whether you prefer left- or right-handed carry. The slim closed length of 4.41 inches makes it easy to pocket, while the overall length of 7.88 inches delivers enough cutting edge for serious work.
The CIVIVI Cogent isn’t just another folding knife—it’s a tool engineered to adapt, excel, and endure. From professional demands to everyday carry, it’s built for those who expect more from their gear.
