The CIVIVI Pentad Folder in Teal Green brings a bold yet functional personality to everyday carry, blending ergonomic design, reliable materials, and smooth operation into a knife that’s built for real-world use. Named after the concept of a “pentad,” or group of five, the design draws inspiration from its four sculpted handle arcs plus a choil, working together to create a natural, controlled grip that feels intuitive from the first use.
At the center of the Pentad is a 3.48" clip point blade made from Nitro-V stainless steel, a tough, corrosion-resistant steel known for dependable edge retention and easy maintenance. Finished in a black stonewashed coating, the blade carries a low-reflection tactical look that also helps conceal wear from daily use. The hollow grind enhances slicing efficiency and smooth cutting performance, giving the blade a balanced feel whether you’re handling utility tasks, opening packages, or tackling general everyday work.
The teal green G-10 handle is where this version stands out visually while still maintaining serious function. Shaped with dedicated finger placement points that follow the natural contour of the hand, it delivers a secure, full grip that feels stable and confident in use. The textured G-10 surface adds slip resistance, ensuring control even in wet or demanding conditions. The color brings a modern, eye-catching aesthetic without compromising the knife’s practical identity.
Multiple deployment options make the Pentad highly adaptable, featuring both a flipper tab and dual thumb studs for quick, easy opening. Whether you prefer a fast flip or a more deliberate thumb deployment, the action remains smooth and consistent thanks to the caged ceramic ball bearing pivot system. Inside, the stainless steel liner lock engages firmly, providing dependable blade security while keeping the overall profile slim and carry-friendly.
A rear integrated lanyard hole expands carry versatility, allowing for customization or added retention options. At 4.5 ounces, the Pentad carries with a solid but manageable weight, striking a balance between durability and everyday comfort. The stainless steel pocket clip supports tip-up, left or right carry, adding further flexibility for different users and preferences.
Measuring 8.3" overall with a closed length of 4.82", the Pentad is a well-proportioned everyday carry folder that blends thoughtful ergonomics with dependable performance and a distinctive modern look.
