The CIVIVI Yonder Clip Point Folder blends timeless tradition with modern performance, creating a pocketknife that feels equally at home in a workshop, on a back porch, or riding in your pocket every day. Designed by Zac Whitmore and building on the award-winning Yonder platform, this refined variation introduces a classic clip point blade, genuine guibourtia wood scales, and rugged brass bolsters, resulting in a knife that delivers both everyday utility and old-school character.
The Yonder earned the prestigious Best Buy of the Year Award at the 2024 BLADE Show, a recognition that highlights its outstanding combination of performance, value, and design. This latest version expands on that success with a heritage-inspired look that recalls the dependable pocketknives carried by generations past. It's the kind of knife that feels familiar from the moment you pick it up, yet performs with all the advantages of modern materials and engineering.
At the heart of the Yonder is a 2.88" clip point blade crafted from 14C28N stainless steel, heat treated to 58-60HRC for an excellent balance of edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness. The satin finish highlights the clean lines of the blade while providing a polished, traditional appearance. The clip point profile enhances precision and control, making detailed cuts, fine work, and everyday utility tasks feel effortless. Combined with a thin blade stock and flat grind, the Yonder delivers impressive slicing performance well beyond its compact size.
The handle pairs warm guibourtia wood scales with stonewashed brass bolsters, creating a rich visual contrast that only gets better with age and use. Every piece of wood carries its own unique grain pattern, giving each knife an individual character. The brass bolsters add durability and a touch of vintage appeal, while naturally developing a patina over time that reflects the owner's experiences and use.
Modern functionality is seamlessly integrated into the traditional design. The Crossbar Lock provides secure, ambidextrous operation and confidence during use, while the caged ceramic ball bearing pivot ensures smooth blade deployment. A reversible stainless steel pocket clip supports both left- and right-hand tip-up carry, making the Yonder versatile and easy to carry regardless of preference.
Measuring 6.62" overall and weighing just 3.29 ounces, the Yonder is compact enough for daily pocket carry while remaining capable enough for the tasks that matter. It's a knife that honors classic pocketknife heritage while embracing the reliability and performance expected from a modern everyday carry tool.
