CIVIVI Baby Banter Pocket Knife for EDC, Ben Petersen Folding Knife with 2.34 in Nitro V Steel Blade Cuibourtia Wood Handle, Titanium Thumb Stud Opener C19068SB-2(Wood)

I absolutely love this knife. I was looking for something small and lightweight while still being high quality and dependable and this checked all the boxes. Im using it with my summer edc setup which includes my springfield hellcat micro compact and this. The action is so smooth and satisfying, I find myself sitting here and opening and closing it all the time. And I love how the blade is curved at the bottom to give you more grip on the knife. I plan on buying more in the future and I may even be getting one for my wife since the size is perfect for her. I love the fact that I can open and close it with one hand, that was a huge selling point for me. In the winter I'll be looking to get something like the kizer drop bear and maybe a larger edc handgun.. But this would work all year too no doubt. If you're on the fence about getting one I can't recommend them enough. The quality for the price is outstanding, you won't be disappointed.

Wonderful small knife. Pivot tightness was perfect out of the box (usually have to adjust this even on flagship folding knives) and the blade dead center when in the folded position. Balance is quite good with the balance point on the handle just behind the pivot. Choil lets you choke down on the blade when you need more leverage and the jimping on the spine and choil gives you confidence in your grip as well as tactile feedback as to your finger placement. Frame lock is solid and does not bind up when unlocking for folding. Deep carry pocket clip (switchable for left/right carry, but tip up only) is solid but not overly tight. With the smooth wooden scales used on the model I chose, the knife clips slips easily over my pocket edge. The curve at the end of the clip is aggressive enough that the clip feels secure and not going to fall out. My only knock on the knife is that I’m not sure about the durability of the wood chosen for the scales. Looks attractive; it's supposed to be a hardwood (cuibourtia is sometimes known as "African rosewood") so we'll see. Get the G-10 or CF version if that is a concern (actually, I love this knife so much the CF with "damascus" is very tempting). At this price point I think the wood scales are fine. This is my first Nitro-V blade, so can’t comment on how easy it is to sharpen or how well it will hold its edge, but the steel has a good rep. They do make a full sized Banter (under the parent WE KNIFE brand rather than the more value-oriented CIVIVI brand), but I like the compactness of this one. EDC knives keep getting bigger, but I prefer smaller blades like this in my pocket.

Nice little knife. Purchased for my wife, she loves it.. would buy again if she ever wears it out. Going strong and staying sharp being used every day. Don’t think she will wear it out any time soon. Will see

I'm not really a "Knife Guy" but I need one for various home tasks (mostly opening Amazon Boxes). This thing is small lightweight and very sharp. Sometimes I forget it's in my pocket which is exactly what I'm looking for in a Knife

Bought this for my husband, he loved the stubby-ness of it and the quality is amazing. Very easy handling and also very sharp. Comes with a sticker and a case that will never get used but it’s the thought the counts.
