CIVIVI Appalachian Drifter

[WE Knife Media]

CPM S35VN blade and micarta handle.Smooth opening and closing action without the oppressive force of a traditional backspring.
Do you enjoy the slipjoint flipper knife with double detent?

Cant wait for the LL versions!!!!!

Cant wait for the LL versions!!!!!

No plan by now,but we let our team know your demand

 

[Dergyll]

But I thought...


Or you mean the S35V one is not LL

Either way, great knife but I am just a little scared of it closing on my fingers! Haha

Hey guys,

Any news when Appalachian Drifter II liner lock might be available???

 

[Dergyll]

Says August!

CiWevi is usually pretty about giving release dates, so let's see if we can bait them for one

Because of the serious congestion in US ports,there’s unexpected shipment delay recently.

The release date of these new knives will be on September 3rd, 2021.
Really appreciate your attention!​

Bought 4 civivis this year. Drifter 2 will be the next. Wasn't planning on expanding my knife collection at all this year but these are all too nice to pass up

Got my Drifter II yesterday. It's nice. Very compact. A lot of cutting edge in a small, lightweight package. I wish the jimping were sharper but it still flips well.

Mine should be here tuesday, which model you go with? i got the red carbon dama to match my bo

 

[Dergyll]

I bought the dark brown micarta one, can't say no to S35VN!

 

[AF]

I used a diamond file to deepen the jimping a little.

I'm really happy Civivi is branching out to more traditional looking knives. I think that and kitchen are two areas with few competition and if they can bring their high quality F/F and material in they can do well.

I mean, GECs cant get all the attention...and case is case lol. Good luck Civivi!

We appreicate your the nice feedback

For those curious. The RG is slightly thinner and pocketable, and I like the colorways too. For fidget friendly and easy of deployment, the AD2 wins.


Another great piece!

That's the brown micarta?

I just ordered the same configuration, it's awesome seeing an example that looks like yours! The marketing photos made it look a bit more uniform, more like the brown micarta the Hadros and Elementum used.

Been carrying and using mine. It's gotten very smooth from playing with it. Cuts very well. Fits in my medium hand perfectly. Pockets smoothly and holds tightly.
I would have preferred if the pocket clip finish matched the blade or alternatively, if either the blade or clip were black coated. The clip looks blasted or stonewashed while the blade is machine satin.

Mine says dark brown matrix micarta. I noticed some places mislabeled it so definitely look at the SKU and pic closely.

I got my first Civivi this week, the drifter. I have to say, I was one of those weary about a Chinese company, but after seeing how innovative and well fitted WE knives have been, I took a chance. Suffice it to say that I am more than impressed! This is quickly becoming my favorite folder- I love the new tech on old patterns! A nice, thin razor of a blade, handsome handle and neat little details have me in awe of how useable and thought out this knife is.
