SHOP CASE KNIVESThe CIVIVI Elementum Black Wharncliffe OD Green takes everything users love about the original Elementum and sharpens it with a tactical edge and modern flair. Compact, lightweight, and built with premium materials, this everyday carry folding knife is a top-tier choice for anyone who values clean design, functional performance, and a comfortable carry. Whether you're a seasoned knife enthusiast or someone looking for a reliable daily companion, the Elementum Wharncliffe delivers the kind of quality you’ll feel every time you reach for it.
Its 2.97” Wharncliffe blade is crafted from Nitro-V stainless steel, a steel known for excellent corrosion resistance, solid edge retention, and easy maintenance. The Wharncliffe shape lends itself to utility work, offering a straight edge that excels at controlled slicing and precision cuts. Paired with a stealthy black finish, the blade not only performs at a high level but looks the part too—minimalist, sleek, and ready for the task at hand.
Opening the blade is as smooth as it gets thanks to a caged ceramic ball bearing pivot system. You’ll have the choice of two equally satisfying deployment methods: the quick-action blade flipper or the ambidextrous thumb studs. Both options make the knife easy to operate one-handed, whether you're right- or left-handed. Once open, a sturdy linerlock ensures the blade stays firmly in place, offering both safety and confidence during use.
The handle features textured olive drab G-10 scales that offer a perfect balance of grip, durability, and understated tactical style. G-10 is well-loved for its lightweight strength and resistance to environmental wear, making it an ideal choice for daily use in all kinds of conditions. The black stainless steel liners not only reinforce the knife’s structure but also enhance the color contrast, giving the Elementum a sharp, clean look from end to end.
Weighing just 2.89 ounces and measuring 4.03” when closed, this knife disappears in your pocket until it’s needed. The right-hand, tip-up pocket clip offers secure and discreet carry, and a lanyard hole provides added options for personalization or easy retrieval. Fully open, the knife measures 7” overall—compact enough for convenience, yet long enough to be truly capable in everyday scenarios.
