CIVIVI Mini Praxis | QGO Reviews
Aesthetics & Feel: 90/100
Right out of the box, the CIVIVI Mini Praxis is impressive. An EDC-friendlier version of the CIVIVI Praxis, the ergonomics on this knife are incredible. Featuring a 1.00” across and 0.51” thick molded G-10 handle, the Mini Praxis feels extremely comfortable in-hand. The thinner handle in tandem with a forward finger blade indentation, allows for maximum control of its D2 drop-point blade.
The blade deploys smoothly with a flipper tab and the action is incredibly satisfying – so much so, this budget knife could just be marketed as a lethal fidget toy.
Build Quality: 87/100
The CIVIVI Mini Praxis is a solidly built budget EDC option. The D2 steel blade is durable and holds an edge well, while the G-10 is molded and textured for a secure grip. The pocket clip exposes the Mini Praxis as a “budget” knife. The pocket clip is flimsy and doesn’t hold its shape well, which can result in loosening.
Performance: 88/100
In terms of performance, the Mini Praxis excels in both utility and ease of use. The blade is razor-sharp right out of the box, and its D2 steel can stand up to rigorous tasks. Its slim profile makes it an easy carry, but it’s pocket clip loses the Mini Praxis points here.
Value: 96/100
For its $30 price point, the CIVIVI Mini Praxis quite possibly is the best deal on the market. It combines quality materials and dependable performance at a competitive price. It stands out among similar options in the market, making it a worthy investment for anyone looking for a reliable EDC knife without breaking the bank.
