CIVIVI Bo Zinker Black Stonewashed Nitro-V Purple G10 Liner Lock Flipper C20009B-5

Designed by custom knife maker Brad Zinker, the CIVIVI Bo takes his clean, minimalist design and delivers it in an amazingly affordable and stylish production piece with excellent performance. The flat ground Nitro-V blade is a slicing machine, while smooth, contoured scales deliver the time tested liner lock platform with comfort and style. This version comes with a black stonewashed blade and purple G10 handle scales.

Brand new, direct from CIVIVI.

Blade: The utilitarian straight spine blade of flat ground, black stonewashed Nitro-V takes advantage of the high edge stability to offer excellent slicing performance. The black stonewashed finish is discreet in use and hides wear while looking great. A caged ceramic ball bearing pivot delivers fast flipper deployment and smooth operation.

Handle: Skeletonized stainless-steel liners support handsome polished G10 scales that are fully contoured for a comfortable, hand filling grip. The simple handle design is comfortable in multiple grips for good versatility with a lightweight, easy to maintain open back construction completed with dual barrel spacers and inline lanyard pin.

Carries via a right-hand stainless-steel deep carry clip.

Nitro-V Stainless Steel: Nitro-V is essentially AEB-L with a dash of Nitrogen and Vanadium thrown in for enhanced performance. What you get is a very fine-grained steel that is easy to sharpen, has moderate edge retention and excellent edge stability, allowing for a very fine, high-performance slicing edge. This is one of the tougher stainless steels.
