New WE/CIVIVI/Sencut Knives S.H.O.T. Show 2026
Published: February 11th, 2026
WE, CIVIVI, and Sencut are coming into SHOT Show 2026 with one of their most well-rounded lineups in recent memory, and it feels like every part of the catalog gets something worth paying attention to. WE leans hard into premium materials and bold silhouettes with knives like the Cryonix, Notchline, and Shadowhook, mixing aggressive blade shapes with titanium, carbon fiber, and high-end steels. CIVIVI continues to be the “real-world EDC” workhorse of the group, balancing compact personality pieces like the Purr with practical button-lock folders and lightweight users like the Kitefin and Vexaryn. Sencut rounds it out with the Tauron, keeping things simple, functional, and budget-friendly while still delivering a clean, modern carry. If these releases are any indication of the year ahead, it is going to be a fun one to follow.
WE Knife Co.
Cryonix
The WE Knife Co. Cryonix is a compact flipper folder built around aggressive cutting control and a distinctly modern profile. It features a 2.03-inch Bohler M390 hawkbill blade designed for efficient pull cuts, slicing, and controlled detail work, making it especially effective on cordage, packaging, and fibrous materials. The Cryonix is offered in two configurations: a stonewashed blade paired with a blue and satin 6Al-4V titanium handle, or a black stonewashed blade matched with a black and satin 6Al-4V titanium handle. A flipper tab provides fast, consistent one-handed deployment on a smooth pivot, while a liner lock secures the blade during use. Measuring 4.66 inches closed and weighing 3.55 ounces, the Cryonix is compact and controlled with a tip-up pocket clip.
Fluxor
The WE Knife Co. Fluxor is a modern flipper folder built around a 3.98-inch Bohler M390 wharncliffe blade that prioritizes straight-line cutting and precise tip control for detail work and efficient slicing. It comes in two configurations: a Black and Satin version with a two-tone black stonewash and satin blade and a satin and black 6Al-4V titanium handle, or an All-Black model pairing a black stonewash blade with contrasting black brushed bevels and a black titanium handle. The flipper tab deploys the blade quickly on a smooth pivot, while a liner lock provides secure lockup with simple one-handed closing. Measuring 5.05 inches closed and 9.03 inches overall, the Fluxor weighs 4.39 ounces and carries with a tip-up pocket clip.
Notchline
Version Shown: Black Rose
The WE Knife Co. Notchline is a compact fixed blade offered in two premium variants built around the same 7.5-inch overall profile and a slim 1.09-inch width. Both versions run a 3.45-inch CPM S35VN straight-back blade with a 3.31-inch cutting edge, a flat grind, and a stout 0.17-inch thickness that feels ready for hard everyday use without getting clunky. One model features a stonewashed finish and black rose carbon fiber handle scales, while the other pairs a black stonewashed blade with copper-foil carbon fiber handle scales for a darker, more aggressive look. Each version uses stainless hardware and comes with a black Kydex sheath, a T-clip, and a tied paracord lanyard.
Shadowhook
The WE Knife Co. Shadowhook is a bold, purpose-built folder with a distinctive ringed handle and a compact, aggressive cutting profile. It features a 2.82-inch Bohler M390 reverse hawkbill blade, finished in black stonewash and ground flat for controlled pull cuts and strong slicing performance. The 5.24-inch handle is full 6AL4V titanium in a matching black finish, including the liners and the integral backspacer/ring, giving it a rigid, all-metal build that feels substantial in hand. A caged ceramic ball bearing pivot keeps the action smooth, while the button lock provides fast, secure operation. Overall length is 8.06 inches with a weight of 7.82 ounces, and it carries tip-up left or right-handed with a black titanium pocket clip
CIVIVI
Baby Banter Fixed (Red, White, and Blue)
The CIVIVI Baby Banter is a compact fixed blade built for lightweight everyday carry and quick-access utility. It features a 2.39-inch Nitro-V drop-point blade with a gray stonewash finish, offering a balanced mix of corrosion resistance, toughness, and easy edge maintenance for daily cutting tasks. Full-tang construction adds strength and stability, while the red, white, and blue G-10 handle provides a secure grip in wet or dry conditions without adding bulk. Measuring 5 inches overall and weighing just 2.02 ounces, the Baby Banter Fixed is designed to stay out of the way until it’s needed. It includes a molded Kydex sheath set up for neck carry, keeping the knife secure and readily accessible for light utility, cordage, and general everyday use.
Brr15 Light
Version Shown: Black & Neon Green
The CIVIVI Brr15 Light is a sleek flipper folder offered in two distinct colorways built around the same slim 7.57-inch overall profile. Both versions use a 3.2-inch Nitro-V drop-point blade with a flat grind, giving it a clean, practical cutting shape that fits everyday carry without feeling oversized. The Black Stonewash model pairs a black blade with black and neon green G-10, giving it a bold, high-contrast look that stands out in the pocket. The Satin version leans cleaner and brighter, matching a satin-finished blade with white-and-blue G-10 and a lighter overall feel. Both ride on caged ceramic ball bearings for smooth deployment, lock up with a liner lock, and carry tip-up left or right-hand via a stainless steel pocket clip.
Kitefin
The CIVIVI Kitefin is a slim, lightweight flipper folder built around a 3.22-inch drop-point blade and a fast, user-friendly button lock. It comes in four configurations: a satin-finished Sandvik 14C28N blade with a black aluminum handle, a black stonewashed 14C28N blade with a silver aluminum handle, a black stonewashed 14C28N blade with a purple aluminum handle, or a Damascus drop-point blade paired with a brownish gray aluminum handle. The flipper tab opens smoothly for quick one-handed deployment, while the button lock keeps the lockup secure and makes closing simple with fingers clear of the blade path. Measuring 4.3 inches closed and weighing 2.78 ounces, the Kitefin carries easily in a pocket and includes a tip-up pocket clip for consistent access.
Purr
Version Shown: Black & White
The CIVIVI Purr, designed by Ostap Hel, is a tiny front flipper folder that leans into personality without giving up real cutting function. At just 4.61 inches overall with a 1.83-inch reverse tanto blade, it’s built around a flat-ground Nitro-V blade that feels more capable than the size suggests, whether you’re opening packages, cutting cord, or handling quick daily tasks. It opens via a front flipper on caged ceramic ball bearings and uses a double detent slip joint for smooth, non-locking operation. The 2.9-inch handle gives it a compact footprint, and when closed, the silhouette forms a cute little cat profile that makes it instantly recognizable. It comes in either black stonewash with purple and black G-10 or stonewash with black and white G-10, and both include a tip-up stainless pocket clip for left or right carry.
Vexaryn
Version Shown: Gray Aluminum
The CIVIVI Vexaryn is a full-size button-lock folder offered in two clean, modern variants built around the same 8.02-inch overall profile. Both versions feature a 3.39-inch plain-edge Nitro-V clip-point blade with a flat grind for balanced everyday cutting performance. One model pairs a satin finish with a gray aluminum handle for a more classic look, while the other runs a black stonewashed blade with a purple aluminum handle for a darker, more aggressive style. Deployment is quick and controlled using either the flipper tab or the thumb hole, and the caged ceramic ball-bearing pivot keeps action smooth. A stainless steel tip-up pocket clip supports left or right-hand carry, and the weight is just 3.02 ounces.
Vexron
The CIVIVI Vexron is a compact everyday carry folder built around a 2.98-inch drop-point blade designed for balanced utility and controlled cutting. It is offered in three configurations: (C24066-1) a black stonewashed Sandvik 14C28N blade with milled black G-10 handles, (C24066-2) a stonewashed 14C28N blade paired with green and tan milled G-10, or (C24066-DS1) a Damascus drop-point blade matched with black and green G-10. A flipper tab and thumb hole allow for quick or deliberate deployment through a flipper tab or thumb hole, while a button lock provides secure lockup and keeps fingers clear during closing. The Vexron measures 4.24 inches closed, 7.22 inches overall, weighs 3.78 ounces, and carries tip-up with a pocket clip.
Sencut
Tauron
Version Shown: Burgundy
The Sencut Tauron is a streamlined everyday carry folder built around practical cutting performance and a clean, modern profile.
