The Ultraharduseworker Knife
MKM have teamed up with none other than the legendary Bob Terzoula for the Maximo, who has delivered this great design. Terzoula is the grandfather of the tactical folding knife, so to speak, and has created countless designs in addition to several books, inspiring a complete generation of knifemakers around the world.
The Maximo is basically a typical Terzoula design. First of all, there's the straight handle, which is quite universal and offers plenty of room for both small and large hands. While the showside is available in various materials and finishes, the lockside is made of titanium. So that the weight is not too high, small pockets are milled on the inside of the handle scales, which will leave the whole thing a little lighter. To ensure that your Maximo locks reliably for a long time, the lockbar has been given a stainless steel insert that not only makes contact with the blade root, but also ensures that you can't overstretch the mechanism. At the end of the handle, you'll find a small glass breaker that also holds the deep-carry clip. For a little more grip, the Maximo has been given a milled fragpattern, which also looks great.
The spearpoint blade made of Böhler's M390 powder steel can be opened either by the thumb studs on both sides or by the discreet flipper tab, which also ensures that your hand does not accidentally slip onto the cutting edge when the blade is open. The blade also clearly bears the signature of Bob Terzoula: while the tip is almost on the center axis of the knife, you will find the typically long Swedge on the back of the blade, which is so characteristic of Terzoula designs. As always with MKM manufacturing, the finish is of the highest level. All edges are beautifully broken and rounded, so this folder is incredibly comfortable and full in the hand. So you can use your Maximo also for harder cutting and outdoor tasks without any problems.

Made by WE Knife
S35VN Blade
Whaaat iiiiiiis up guys?
If you are interested in knives, you can't avoid him: for a long time, Ben Peterson from Blade HQ was a real institution on Youtube. His videos were not just product presentations, but had a completely unique and entertaining style. After his end at Blade HQ, it was a short while style around Ben. However, he was not idle. Together with WE Knife, he developed a pocket knife that is absolutely tailored to Ben's needs and comes with a few clever features. Here comes the Banter.
First, there's the size: perhaps you remember Ben's requirement that a knife be no longer than his outstretched index finger? To test this, Ben likes to put his finger out the back of the blade and see if he can reach the tip. Thanks to its unexciting, universal contour, the handle made of green micarta is very comfortable in the hand and can be used in a variety of positions. In the back, you'll find a lanyard hole through which you can thread a 550 paracord as a safety strap, for example. While the showside is made of a pure micarta scale, the opposite scale has a liner made of black steel, which also provides the super secure linerlock.
The blade is a very universally shaped Spearpoint blade (comes with a blackwash finish in this version) that has been given a large hollow grind. The genius here is that WE Knife have chosen such a thin grind that the Banter is an incredible cutting machine. The S35VN blade just flies through the cut material and is up to all cutting tasks in EDC. Ceramic ball bearings provide a smooth opening of the blade, giving the Banter a certain playfulness.
Together with the black deep-carry clip, which allows the knife to disappear discreetly in your pocket, you get with the WE Knife Banter an impressively versatile EDC pocket knife that turns out to be an excellent companion in everyday life.

Giantmouse ACE Nimbus V2 Natural Canvas Micarta
€224.00
Giantmouse ACE Nimbus V2 Natural Canvas Micarta
New revised version
Design by Jesper Voxnaes and Jens Anso
Natural micarta handle and Elmax blade
This novelty makes the hearts of many fans of the big mouse beat faster: the Nimbus, one of the very early designs of GiantMouse, gets an update. Although a lot has changed, the knife has basically remained the same. The GiantMouse Nimbus is still not a saint - as the name of the knife suggests. On the contrary: this knife is a merciless workhorse with which you can really nibble something away.
Voxnaes and Anso were inspired by the old Danish motorcycle brand Nimbus, which was built from 1915 until late in the 1950s.
Now you are right to ask what a knife has to do with a motorcycle.
But the comparison is actually quite accurate: the motorcycle was not so much a racing machine as a 'workhorse', which also scored well in the off-road sector. With exactly this philosophy in mind, the Nimbus was designed.
A knife without frills and a blade that represents a modern interpretation of the Nordic puuko shape, with a bulbous curve that leads to a fine but robust tip that allows for fine cuts without any problems.
The function of the knife was also the main consideration in the choice of materials. The V2 version uses a 3D contoured Micarta, as we know it from the GiantMouse Ace Biblio. Micarta is not only very robust but can also be easily cleaned with a little water after work.
The liners, made of Asis 420 stainless steel, make the knife even more stable and the Liner Lock ensures that the blade is securely locked when open. In contrast to the first version, the Nimbus V2 now has washers made of phosphor bronze, which provide a little more stability and are very easy to clean. Also the blade has been updated: Böhler's Elmax steel is one of the best blade steels currently available in the industry. Here you get a 3.5mm thick blade, which is equally rust-resistant, tough and has good cutting properties and can handle even tougher cutting tasks effortlessly.
The Nimbus is clearly a real working knife that will find a new home in your toolbox, jacket pocket or work trousers.

CRKT Scribe Black
Design: Highlighter (handle & lid made of FRN)
T.J Black Design
compact & practical
The knife pen
Who hasn't experienced this: you're sitting in your office, your colleague is writing something down on a piece of paper and asks you if you could hand her the highlighter. "Nothing easier than that" you think to yourself, reach into the drawer and hand her the desired pen. At first you don't know what to make of the look of astonishment on her face, but then you realize that you've once again mistaken the highlighter for your new CRKT Scribe. Crap!
You may have already done this or something similar - after all, the Scribe is almost indistinguishable from a highlighter at first glance. Ultra lightweight, flat and not a bit reminiscent of a stationary knife, the Scribe blends seamlessly into any office - but is still a useful little everyday tool. To extend the plastic handle, you can slip the small cap onto the lanyard loop for a little more hand room. You wouldn't want to cut a watermelon with the short blade - but for most everyday tasks, the edge will do just fine. The 5cr15MoV steel used is very good-natured and resistant to rust. If you want to carry the knife in your pocket, you can clip it to the hem of your jeans thanks to the tight pocket clip.
Oh yeah, did you know that behind the design of the CRKT Scribe is none other than T.J. Schwarz? You may know T.J. because he is responsible for the design of Bill Koenig's Arius folder.

Micarta Scales
CruWear Tool Steel
Compression Lock
A true EDC classic
Spyderco fans have been waiting for this for years: a PM2 with Micarta handle scales. There's a steel update to go with it.
Originally introduced in 2010, this all-around knife has been improved over the years so that this cutting tool is now an absolutely mature design. The incredibly ergonomically shaped handle, is designed for maximum control when working with the knife and allows a variety of ways to guide the blade.
Really great is the so-called Fingerchoil (an indentation at the base of the blade), which makes it possible to grip the knife very close to the cutting edge to transmit maximum force to the cutting movement. Thanks to the attached filing (jimping), you have an absolutely secure grip even in this position and the knife never threatens to slip away thanks to the grippy surface of the Micarta.
An absolute highlight of the PM2 is the Compression Lock. At first glance, this locking technology looks like a rear-placed liner lock - but a closer look reveals that this is not the case. With the Compression Lock, the liner moves between the blade root and the stop pin on the back. To destroy this lock, the steel liner between the blade root and the pin would have to be crushed, which is virtually impossible. This construction makes the Para Military 2 one of the most robust pocket knives the market has to offer. Unlike the standard version of the PM2, the liners on this variant are underlaid and not recessed. This further increases the edge stability of the Micarta.
The blade is made of CruWear tool steel, which is very popular thanks to its toughness and edge retention. The fully raised flat grind ensures optimal cutting performance and the fine point allows for even the finest detail work.
Thanks to the reversible pocket clip on both sides, the knife is ideal for both right- and left-handed users, while the large lanyard hole allows the attachment of a safety strap. Due to the Micarta used and the CruWear steel, the entire knife will put on a certain patina over time and thus get a very personal look.
What is CruWear, anyway?
CruWear is an air-hardened tool steel from Crucible Industries, one of the main suppliers of Spydercos steels. CruWear was basically developed as a sort of D2 alternative, except that it's an entirely different alloy and manufacturing method. While D2 has mainly chromium carbides for better wear resistance, CruWear also contains a high proportion of very hard vanadium carbides. These provide tremendous edge retention with a very high degree of hardness. Tungsten and molybdenum have also been added to the steel.

compact EDC-Knife
Small update
WE Knife's Banter has quickly established itself as one of the best EDC pocket knives around. No wonder: this Ben Peterson design (Knafs, ex-Blade HQ) is so handy and functional that it simply works well in everyday life.
Now Ben has gone one better and brought out an even more compact version of the knife in collaboration with Civivi. The Baby Banter is not only a little smaller, but also uses a different steel. But first things first: there is the slightly modified handle, which offers enough space for all 4 fingers thanks to a small finger recess at the base of the blade. Thanks to the universal shape, the Baby Banter is perfectly suitable for small to medium-sized hands. Only with very large hands, you might better reach for the WE Knife Banter. Thanks to the finger choil, you can reach very close to the cutting edge and thus put a lot of force into the cutting movement (for example, when carving). Like its big brother, the Banter is equipped with handle scales made of robust G10.
The blade steel used here is stainless Nitro-V steel, which has been given a blackwash finish. This nitrogen-alloyed steel is very resistant and offers versatile possibilities in use. Should the cutting edge ever become blunt, it can be quickly resharpened. A smooth blade action is provided by the built-in ball bearings, so that even the Baby Banter can have some fun. The whole thing is rounded off by a convertible deep-carry pocket clip, which makes your Baby Banter discreetly disappear in your pocket.

Small but usefull!
The Brute is a knife that stands out despite its compact size. From a purely visual point of view, the design almost seems a bit chubby. The big eureka moment comes when you take the knife in your hand for the first time and work with it.
The handle of the Brute is made of amboyna burl wood, which you may already know from the furniture or instrument industry. This wood has a soft feel and is super comfortable to hold, even with large hands, thanks to the voluminously designed handle. The trick of this knife is that you can use it in many different grip positions, so precise cutting tasks are no problem. On the back of the blade, you'll find a hollow that allows your thumb to transfer a lot of force to the center of the cutting edge.
The blade is the stainless Nitro-V steel developed in the USA, which offers very good cutting performance thanks to its high content of nitrogen and vanadium and is not dissimilar to the AEB-L. The very high blade has been ground to a very fine finish using a half raised hollow grind, so you're getting a real cutting machine here. The swedge on the back of the blade results in a finely tapered tip, which visually gives the knife that certain something.
The overall package is rounded off by a tight-fitting Kydex and a Birthcard milled from Aluminuim. Each knife is labeled with a running serial number and is handmade by Dominic Binkert in Australia.

Titanium Framelock
M390 Blade Steel
Made by Reate
Little mouse
With the Riv, GiantMouse present a model that fans of somewhat more compact knives in particular have long been waiting for. What may look like a Biblio washed too hot at first glance is actually much more.
Visually, the Riv is clearly reminiscent of its big brother at first, but it also fulfills the long-held desire of many fans of Jesper Voxnaes to get a high-end version of the CRKT Pilar - there is a certain similarity here as well. The basic idea behind the Riv was to offer a pocket knife that is small enough to really carry with you wherever you go. Despite the compact dimensions, however, the knife should still be a full-fledged cutting tool that can be used properly.
The handle of the Riv is designed as a framelock, and it's no surprise that an exceedingly good-looking and popular combination of materials is used here in the form of titanium and micarta. To prevent wear in the lock, the lockbar was provided with a stainless steel insert, which also serves as an internal overtravel guard, so that the lock can not be accidentally overstretched when opening. Typical for GiantMouse is the curved wire clip, which allows the knife to disappear deep and barely visible in the pocket.
For the blade, the manufacturer once again relies on the proven M390 steel from Böhler, which provides excellent cutting performance and is extremely resistant to rust and corrosion and with its stonewash finish gives a great image.The knife is opened either via the thumb hole or the small flipper tab, which allows the ball-bearing blade to shoot out of the hilt.
Like all GiantMouse knives, the Riv was named after a special place.
After boss and founder of the brand, Jim Wirth, moved from California to East Lansing/ Michigan in 2020, he remembered a small pub he had visited often as a student at Michigan State University: The Riv. That pub still exists today and will be the breeding ground for many imaginative evenings together for Wirth, Ansø and Voxnaes in the future.
Like the GiantMouse Sonoma, the Riv is entirely manufactured by Reate.

Of cause colloquially, "fob" also means something like "tag" or "keychain".
Whether as a keychain, lanyard bead for knives or other pocket tools, the Line of Fire FOB offers a smart addition to your EDC!

When Ostap Hel is in the game, things get exciting. If you've been following us for a while or even listening to our podcast, you may have noticed that we are absolute fans of Ostap's designs. So it was clear that the Ki-V definitely had to come into our program.
Here you get an EDC pocket knife that is truly a mini EDC. The Ki-V is Ostap Hel's first collaboration with Civivi and is intended as a small office pocket knife for the lightest everyday cutting tasks. The lack of a lock also makes it portable almost anywhere, so you should basically never have a problem with this little pocket knife. The design of the knife is based on the classic Kiridashi knives of Japan and features a highly modern look despite the historical background. To prevent the blade from simply falling back when open, a liner with your detent ball presses down on the blade root, creating a sort of flip-joint mechanism. The front flipper and ball bearings make for a lot of fun in the office and annoyed colleagues. For the blade steel, Civivi relies on the proven 9CR18MOV, which can be easily resharpened and is extremely rust-resistant. The handle is made out of natural g10.
The story behind the name of the model is interesting: The Ki stands for "Kiridashi" while the V alludes to the many, V-shaped angles of the knife. By the way, the knife is pronounced "Kiwi", which together with the manufacturer's name makes for a funny combination with quite a few Is. By the way, Ostap Hel got the idea for the name while playing Cyberpunk 2077 - here, one of the main characters is simply called "V".
So if you're looking for a cool nerd knife or need something very compact for the office, the KI-V from Civi would definitely be worth considering.
