Notice for U.S. Customers

Dear Customers,

Due to circumstances beyond our control, including government decisions and new customs requirements, courier companies we work with have temporarily suspended shipments from Poland to the United States. In practice, this means:

  • carriers are currently refusing to accept parcels destined for the U.S.,

  • any packages that are sent may be subject to significant delays or returns,

  • additional customs procedures are further complicating the delivery process.

As a result, we are currently unable to fulfill orders to the United States.

If you are located in the U.S., we kindly ask that you refrain from placing orders until regular shipping options are restored.

We apologize for the inconvenience — this situation is beyond our control. We remain in contact with our shipping partners and are working to resume deliveries to the U.S. as soon as possible.

Reason for the Temporary Suspension of Shipments to the U.S.

As of August 25, 2025, new customs regulations in the United States have eliminated the previous duty exemption for goods valued up to $800. This means that every package containing goods may now be subject to additional duties and inspections.

The lack of clear procedures for duty collection and coordination with U.S. customs authorities has resulted in logistical chaos, preventing the efficient handling of parcels containing goods.

As a result, the dispatch of goods-containing shipments to the U.S. has been temporarily suspended — this applies to both parcels and declared-value letters. Only correspondence and documents can still be sent.

This is a temporary measure. We are closely monitoring the situation and will resume full shipping services to the U.S. as soon as logistics and customs conditions allow.

Ben Petersen came into contact with the knife industry in 2011, supplementing his college education with a casual job making YouTube videos. The vortex of the knife world drew him in and he spent the next eight years working full-time in the industry at a knife retailer and manufacturer. He dealt with thousands of knives, recording more than 1,000 knife videos and producing knife marketing content for the entire industry. During his travels, Ben developed a particular preference for knives, such as blades under 3 inches and a fondness for blue Handle grips in simple designs. After years of advertising other people's knives, Ben created his first EC design called “Banter.” It is a thoughtful combination of all the features Ben loves in knives. When he's not working on knives, Ben spends most of his time backpacking, biking and exploring his home state of Utah with his wife and four children. And like him, they all like knives, too.

Civivi - a sub-brand of WE Knife, a company that makes knives of the highest global quality. Production takes place on the same production lines as WE, so the highest standard of assembly is maintained.

Nitro-V stainless chrome-based martensitic knife steel introduced by New Jersey Steel Baron (NJSB). The manufacturer used the existing superior AEB-L knife steel and upgraded it with nitrogen and vanadium to improve edge performance and achieve high hardness and extreme corrosion resistance, especially crucial in the marine industry and humid environments. Nitro V can be used in diving knives because of its resistance to staining and corrosion. The recommended working hardness is between 58-62HRC, and it has very good impact strength compared to other steels. It is harder than stainless powder steels such as M390, Elmax and S35VN. Therefore, Nitro-V will be a good fit for knives that require good strength.

Crossbar Lock - acrossbar that moves horizontally in longitudinal cutouts in the steel side plates of the handle frame. When the knife is opened, the locking bar overlaps the back of the blade from above, preventing its return movement. This beam is pressed down by two springs. Unlocking is done by pulling back the locking bar, the ends of which are accessible through cutouts in the grips on the sides of the Handle grips. In the closed position, the bar presses against the cam surface at the back of the Blade, preventing it from opening on its own. Advantages of the Crossbar Lock include resistance to contamination, practical insensitivity to dynamic loads, ease of operation with both right and left hands, and lightweight operation.

Blade - Drop Point with clearly marked belly finished with elegant satin finish. The small thickness of the blade, combined with a high flat grind, gives excellent cutting edge geometry and extreme cutting performance. Ball bearing ceramic supports smooth and smooth operation of the blade advancement mechanism, which can be opened with Thumb Studs made of solid 6AL4V titanium on both sides. Finger choil, an index finger undercut between the Handle and the cutting edge, and an upper jimping notched section of the Blade's back for the thumb make it easy to control the knife. The whole thing is locked with an intuitive Crossbar Lock.

Handle - two sturdy pieces of solid aluminum. The whole bolted to a solid backspacer, also made of aluminum. The pivot axis is decorated with a stylized Civivi brand logo. A two-position left/right metal deep-carry clip allows you to carry the knife discreetly in your pocket in tip-up position (blade tip up). On the back of the Handle lanyard hole, a hole for a cord.

Case - the knife is packed in a zippered soft nylon case with the manufacturer's logo for safe storage and transportation of the folder.
