CIVIVI Praxis Folding Knife 3.75in Plain Satin Drop Point

Meet the CIVIVI Praxis Black, a modern folding knife that’s built to feel confident in your hand and ready for whatever your day throws at it. With an 8.45" overall length and a 3.75" blade, it hits that sweet spot: big enough to tackle real work, yet streamlined enough to carry comfortably. The blade’s 0.12" thickness gives you the control you want for detailed cuts while still offering the backbone you need for tougher tasks.

At the heart of the Praxis is a 9Cr18MoV stainless steel blade that’s made for performance-minded users. It’s a steel known for taking a keen edge, holding it well, and resisting corrosion when life gets messy. Whether you’re slicing down boxes, trimming rope, breaking down packaging, or handling everyday utility chores, this blade is designed to stay sharp and look good doing it. The profile flows with purpose, offering a long cutting edge and a practical point that’s quick to bite and easy to guide.

Open it up and you’ll immediately notice the action. CIVIVI’s caged ceramic ball bearing pivot assembly helps the blade deploy with a smooth, clean glide that feels crisp and controlled. It’s the kind of motion you’ll appreciate every time you use it—fast, satisfying, and consistent. Once open, the stainless steel liner lock engages with reassuring stability, keeping the knife solid during use while remaining easy to disengage when it’s time to close up.

The handle is where the Praxis really earns its reputation for comfort. With a 4.7" handle length and textured black G-10 scales, it offers a secure grip that stays dependable even when conditions aren’t perfect. G-10 is tough, lightweight, and built to take daily wear without complaining, and the all-black colorway keeps the look clean, understated, and ready for any setting. The G-10 back spacer ties the build together, while stainless steel liners add structure and strength without making the knife feel bulky.

Speaking of carry, this knife is balanced by design. At 4.42oz., it has enough heft to feel substantial, but it won’t weigh you down. The stainless steel pocket clip is reversible, so you can set it up for right- or left-side tip-up carry to match your preference. Stainless steel hardware—clip, screws, pivot cap, and liners—keeps the build cohesive and durable, giving you a knife that’s ready to handle real use and keep its good looks along the way.

If you’re after a dependable, stylish, hard-working folder that feels refined without being fussy, the CIVIVI Praxis Black is an easy choice.
