CIVIVI Elementum

Elementum. The word invokes a sense of the inevitability of nature—the consistent tides, tearing winds, or devouring fire; there is a certain balance that exists in nature. The CIVIVI Elementum is awesome in its own right, and succeeds in establishing a natural balance. Its elements come condensed, landing between too big and too small, high quality and afFordability, plain and extravagant. The resulting knife is MODest, Ergonomic, and functional. Treat your pocket to one of the knife world's finest!The CIVIVI Elementum comes in multiple knife types including the classicElementum Liner Lock, theElementum Fixed Blade, and theElementum Button Lock.
