I have been hearing for a few years that Civivi made good folding knives at an excellent price point so I just picked up a few. An Elementum, a Picaro, a Praxis and a Mini Praxis. They arrived this morning and I am impressed. The action and fit and finish are excellent. One has a stainless blade and the others have D2. One has micarta scales and the rest have G10. I will try them out and see if the heat treatment is adequate.
