Yonder Folding Pocket Knife for EDC, Crossbar Lock Knife with 2.88" 14C28N Blade G10 Handle, Lightweight Knife Gifts for Men Women Camping Hiking, Designed by Zac Whitmore C23073-1

***UPDATE: I recently bought the black-bladed version, and the handle on that one has much better grip IMO. I prefer it to the first one I got, but they are both great knives. **** I just got this one in, and all I can say is WOW! This knife is just really nice, folks. This one is sure to go down in the EDC Hall of Fame. It's smooth, it's slick, and the design is remarkable. The fit and finish is top notch, and the factory edge on this knife is superb. No blade-play in either direction, useful blade shape, just the right size, ergos are excellent, and the centering is perfect. We'll see how it holds up, but I have very high hopes for this one. I'll update as necessary, but I can't find anything wrong with it... at all. I think this one is going to be a winner all the way around. I would say go ahead and buy it now! Like I said above, sometimes, a company just gets it right... and this is one of these times. Bravo Civivi! UPDATE: If there is a knock on this knife, it is that the G10 is a bit slick, and this is accentuated by the fact that the knife is a smaller edc-style knife. However, that does not take away from this brilliant design. This is still a great knife and serves well as a small edc knife that can handle most edc jobs. I would recommend a slightly longer handle and better grip on the G10, and then it would be perfect. I'm going to leave my rating as is because there is still so much to like about this knife.

It’s a smaller knife for sure. But I was looking for something smaller. This knife feels like quality in your hand with the nice hefty weight of brass and wood. But not uncomfortable in the pocket at all. Smooth opening, and very sharp both blade and tip. Beautiful to look at and fully functional for most daily tasks expected of a pocket knife.

The CIVIVI Yonder is a versatile folding pocket knife designed by Zac Whitmore, specifically optimized for everyday carry (EDC) through its compact 2.88-inch blade and lightweight profile. It gained significant industry acclaim by winning the "Best Buy of the Year" award at the 2024 BLADE Show, recognized for its exceptional value and build quality civivi. The knife features a smooth crossbar lock mechanism, allowing for safe, ambidextrous one-handed operation. This pocket knife is smaller than my previous, but you quickly get used to the natural feel in your hand and the quality of the blade. I carry this knife everyday and highly recommend it to all.

The Yonder has some hype around it being that Zac Whitmore is the designer. I have had this knife since shortly after it was released. Having carried it for a while, I can say that it is a bit small for my XL hands. Yes, I can get a secure grip, but I am a bit cramped for 3.5 fingers. I added a lanyard to one of the stand-offs and that helps a bit, but overall it is a bit smaller than I'd prefer. I know a larger version is coming soon and will probably be the size i'm looking for. The build quality is typical Civivi, which means it is well made and the materials are top notch for the price. Contoured G-10, thin and slicy grind on the 14C28N steel- all good. The crossbar lock is relatively new for Civivi and this model might have been the first. Mine has a soft detent, which means blade retention is not that strong. I can shake the blade open pretty easily. I wouldn't trust throwing this knife loose into a bag or backpack as it wouldn't take much to open it accidentally. I do think I have read that they might have firmed this up since the early release knives like mine. If this was a bit bigger and the detent was stronger, it would be a 5/5. As is, I would say a 4/5 and probably best for small-medium hands. I hope this review helped!

It's pretty clear from the reviews that this knife is not for everyone. For me, it's perfect for the things I do daily around the house like cutting boxes, opening plastic wrappings, ripping into rags, etc. It feels pretty sturdy for light to medium tasks like these as the knife is very sharp and easy to handle. I love the quality and feel of the black burlap handle; more on the smooth side than grippy, but definitely textured. The feature that stood out most was the location of the clip and length; level with the rear of the knife and short. Carrying it is very discrete from and pocket, front or back .

First off, I got the Yonder in dark green and let me tell you this knife looks great. The feel of the knife is also great with the Micarta handles and the jimping on the top. It feels very secure in the hand even with its smaller size. The Crossbar lock mechanism feels rock solid and is silky smooth opening and closing, allowing for easy one hand operation. There’s also zero wiggle between the blade and handle. The knife is light weight yet still somehow feels substantial in the hand. Civivi put out a great knife with the Yonder and I can see why it won Best Buy of the year. It has quickly become my go to EDC knife. For its price point it’s hard to beat. I honestly can’t find anything bad to say about it. It even comes in a nice case with some stickers and other swag. If your thinking about this knife just buy it, you won’t be disappointed!

This is an extremely high quality knife (especially for the price) that came out of the box scalpel sharp. Nothing about its design is cheap, it's ambidextrous for the south paws and easily opened/closed with one hand. It's not a huge knife so if you have large hands you might find it small. I have medium sized hands and can get a 4-finger grip on the handle. Large hands will likely get 3. Because of the type of steel which is very tough and retains an edge, and again is *sharp,* it is prone to rust - so this requires one to take some care with exposing the blade to moisture. If you're looking for a small/medium EDC knife with a lot of features for the price point this is a very good buy.

This feels great in hand. Perfect size for a knife to be in pocket all day. You can barely feel it. The blade quality is top notch. The weight feels great in hand and in pocket. That handle looks great. The price you can not beat. You can purchase a knife that’s over 100$ Then you have to worry about losing it. Don’t get me wrong it’s nice to own those knifes. Having a knife like this solves that in my opinion. This is a wonderful EDC. I just purchased the black model for a friend. Life time warranty. Feels and functions nicely. Super smooth action. They have many styles to choose from. You can start with this knife and build from there. The design is legit. Made with strong materials and had a great shape. I hope more colors come out soon!

Un buen diseño, la cuchilla es buena y con filo suficiente. El mango un poco pequeño. Pero en general acupa buen espacio en el bolsillo. Buena conservación.
