BearingArms Review – CIVIVI Baby Banter

0

There are a multitude of different affordable, but high quality knives on the market. I was introduced to the CIVIVI brand of knives last year and am pleased with what I’ve experienced so far. CIVIVI is a subsidiary of We Knife, a line of quality everyday carry and utilitarian knives. I’ve previously reviewed the SENCUT Fritch. SENCUT is also a company under the We Knife banner, and I recount my experiences with the Fritch HERE and HERE.  My friends over at CIVIVI sent me a Baby Banter and an Elementum for some testing and evaluation. We’re going to look at the Baby Banter in this review.

The Baby Banter is a small and squat pocket knife. This model has a 2.34” blade and can be opened one handed via the thumb stud. The Baby Banter is a lockback style knife that’s outfitted with a liner lock design. It comes equipped with a pocket clip, making it an easy choice for everyday carry.

The drop point blade is constructed of “Nitro-V” steel, a hard stainless steel. The Baby Banter that I received has a handle made from G10, a material similar to fiberglass, in an ivory finish and the blade, excepting the edge, is painted red. At the end of the knife’s handle is a lanyard hole that’s suitable to accept commercially available paracord or other adornments/accessories as one may see fit. This is a handsome little knife.

The Baby Banter and Elementum, like most knives in the We Knife family, comes in a fashionable protective zippered pouch. Knives are nestled in the slightly padded case and that case comes in a small box. They don’t use an excessive amount of packaging, just what’s needed to transport the products and keep them stored well for picking and packing in a warehouse.

My first impression of the Baby Banter was that it’s rather mighty for a small knife. The extra width of the blade and handle give the Banter the feel of a knife an inch longer, while maintaining the controllability of having a short blade.

It is a great knife.
