I wish Civivi would start cranking out more button-only, lock-shut, full-size models. We have waaaay too many thumb-stud, baby-sized, blade-cutout, frame/liner-lock knives. The button-only full-size elementum is the only knife I trust to not ever pop open inside my waistband. It's a great-selling knife, too.
My 4-year-old daughter's birthday is coming up and I'd love to get her that birthday cake Elementum. She already has a CRKT deployable combat karambit but we're looking for something less tactical-looking and more fitting for her tiny hands. She needs an EDC flipper which is small enough to keep in her handbag alongside her concealed carry and versatile enough for jobs around school.
The original larger BLM is perfection. They had to make the new small one with a detent wider in the pocket than the original large BLM. I’d just like to see Civivi come out with a premium steel version of the large BLM. Just premium steel, please don’t mess with perfection. No flipper needed if it means more thickness in the pocket. LOVE THE HOLLOW GRIND!
Fidget friendly is absolutely a thing. For precisely this reason I demand button lock flipper tab knives. This one is an absolute stunner of a knife. Eat your heart out Benchmade.
This is such a good looking knife! I just got into knives with my Civivi Mini Praxis (I don't have very large hands and a small knife suits my needs just fine). This may be my next buy, as I'm already fan of the brand. And dude, how many knives do you have! D#mn 😆
Dang. Didn’t need to see this and now I need a new knife. I have the baby banter in nitro v and so far I’m super impressed for a budget offering. Came sharp af and takes and holds a great edge considering
my conspirator has been decent. I chipped up the factory edge just using it though. Maybe it was the feather sticking with hardwood. I was able to sharpen it out without too much difficulty.
Obviously, the OG EBL with no flipper tab or thumb studs was a disappointment for many. For me, the original Elementum button lock is a unique offering and my favorite button lock. It’s ultra smooth gravity deployment is almost magical. Still, I won’t be surprised if Civivi discontinues it. I have bought several so even at an accelerated rate of Knife losing as I get older, I’ll always have one. I can’t find a single folder for sale anywhere that has a button only mechanism except for my Milwaukee 6-in-1 utility knife which is kind of a different genre.
Thanks for sharing! I have to agree with you. I'm glad they did the new version but there is just something special about that first one that can't be explained. I love it and the action is so smooth! ✌️ 🔪
One minor correction. It is not the EXACT size as the original elementum. It is very slightly larger but it's pretty negligible. Button 2 Specs: Overall Length: 7.06" / 179.4mm Width: 1.19" / 30.3mm Blade Length: 2.96" / 75.1mm Closed Length: 4.11" / 104.3mm Blade Thickness: 0.12" / 3mm Handle Thickness: 0.51" / 13mm Original Elementum Specs: Overall Length: 6.99"(177.6mm) Blade Length: 2.96"(75.2mm) Blade Thickness: 0.12"(3mm) Handle Length: 4.03"(102.4mm) Handle Overall Thickness: 0.43"(11mm)
Don't put it in your pocket without it being I something. Just got mine and it has 5 scratches on it! 2 were when I dropped it 3 ft into pavement and the other 3 were from my belt rubbing on it. I have a 17 dollar fake pearl handle switchblade in my pocket all the time that sits in the same pocket as my keys and it doesn't have a mark on it.
Looking for a new fixed blade for EDC. I have the elementum and the button lock. I love the button lock. It stayed in my pocket up til about a month ago. Got it on release. Didn't mind just the button. So of course am looking at the fixed. But I'm commenting because! Never make an excuse for any dessert colorways! Lol. That elementum is sick as hell! 😃 Rad you have that for your daughter! But hell I'd carry that in a second! 😃
It's funny because I jumped on it so fast because I just replaced my OG button lock with a serape cormorant. Great knife. But totally bought it for the colorway and the matching dog tag and hip bag. Nothing wrong with wanting something pretty! 😌
I carry the fixed blade elementum daily and use it heavily. It holds up really well and if you like the original and the button lock then you will love the fixed blade.
I never understood why people love the regular elementum. It’s way too small to comfortably cut with. At least for me. XL glove size but not massive hands & I just can’t with it. The bigger button lock size is perfect but the button lock 2 isn’t comfortable
Dont let Civivi hear this, but I have the black out version and the Jade G10 version of this and would have zero issues if they charged me $100 per knife. I can't believe these are $65 dollars or less!
The original is kind of an anomaly in the button lock world that the knife is actually locked. #2 is like most others button locks out there where it isn’t locked but is held closed with spring tension similar to a “detent”. I suppose it’s possible it could open but not very likely.
When does it come out? BTW, I've used the link/promo for White Mountain Knives a couple times already. Not sure if it helps your channel or not. Anyways, great video. Best wishes
not as fun as the regular button lock version, the button is a little different, and recessed deeper, not as easy to open and close in the same way. But maybe just needs to be broken in more.
Yes I did. Lol. I thought within a few days of the release would be fine but apparently not. 😆 suppose to wait until the release date. My mistake! They were cool about it though.

What could go wrong, right?!
You have to be joking right
@@getdookied-on8136Not at all. It's a dangerous world out there and she needs to be prepared for encounters with Muslims and black people.

i have a button 2 but i like the simplicity of the original button almost stealthy
My first Civivi. Purchased recently. The quality is good. Liked it so much i bought the larger button lock only.
Fidget friendly is absolutely a thing. For precisely this reason I demand button lock flipper tab knives. This one is an absolute stunner of a knife. Eat your heart out Benchmade.
Ja
Pretty cool! I did like the first version but nice to see a flipper tab. Great video 👍
Thanks man! Yeah the first version is still pretty cool. I like them both!
Ordered mine today ! Can't wait to fidget it :) Thanks for your perfect video on the knife.
Nitro v is like sandvik 14c28n but better. Super easy to sharpen, great edge retention to boot I had it on a baby banter and it was excellent
Thanks for sharing! ✌️ 🔪
Am I seeing correct. It can deploy without button pressed, but button to close. If it was left hand friendly would get vs my Bugout.
This is such a good looking knife! I just got into knives with my Civivi Mini Praxis (I don't have very large hands and a small knife suits my needs just fine). This may be my next buy, as I'm already fan of the brand.
And dude, how many knives do you have! D#mn 😆
the joycon scales on the mini banter are so cool. i wish i had one of those dessert warriors too
Lol yeah the wii banter is pretty hilarious 😂
@@SHARP_AF oh my god the Wii Banter how did I miss that
Dang. Didn’t need to see this and now I need a new knife.
I have the baby banter in nitro v and so far I’m super impressed for a budget offering. Came sharp af and takes and holds a great edge considering
Lol sorry about that! 😄 Thanks for the info! Good to hear that it's been performing well! Seems like it will be their go-to for awhile. ✌️ 🔪
ps love the baby banter!
@@SHARP_AF hah! Now that you got me thinking, I might wait for them to make in s35vn 😂
But still really like the nitro v
There's a new one coming soon kind of reminds me of the baby banter, civivi Qubit
Nice I've been waiting to see a video on this one. Glad they decided to do another one!!
Sweet! Yeah me too. It's kind of strange to me they didn't do this one first. Lol. But glad it's finally here! 🙌
my conspirator has been decent. I chipped up the factory edge just using it though. Maybe it was the feather sticking with hardwood. I was able to sharpen it out without too much difficulty.
That's good to know! Glad you were at least able to get it sharpened out. Thanks! ✌️ 🔪

I can't stop buying Elementums. I'm onto my third already. I need help 😂
1:44 oh it's yours dont lie to us xD
5:54 omg i knew it! xD
I just ordered mine from Knife Center. Yay!
Nice! You're gonna love it!
The sticky button lock isn't all that great. Maybe it will work in but who knows. Doesn't hold a candle to the CJRB Pyrite
😍finally, but why not do it complete with 3.5 inch blade? 🤷♂
Lol would be cool. maybe they will do that one next. I like this size too. Variety is the spice of knife. 🧂🔪
Don't put it in your pocket without it being I something. Just got mine and it has 5 scratches on it! 2 were when I dropped it 3 ft into pavement and the other 3 were from my belt rubbing on it.

Nice! I need to pick this one up soon.
You won't regret it. Pretty sweet! ✌️ 🔪
Nice channel by the way. Glad I found it. Havent has anything in nitro V yet. But looking at a couple folders at the moment as well.
Hey! Thanks for stopping by! 👋
I like the original Buttonlock more. Dont like the flipper tab shape especially when carrying it.
Great review 🤠
Looking for a new fixed blade for EDC. I have the elementum and the button lock. I love the button lock. It stayed in my pocket up til about a month ago. Got it on release.

Haaaa! I commented too soon! Good man! Own that beautiful 🍨!
It's funny because I jumped on it so fast because I just replaced my OG button lock with a serape cormorant. Great knife. But totally bought it for the colorway and the matching dog tag and hip bag. Nothing wrong with wanting something pretty! 😌
I carry the fixed blade elementum daily and use it heavily. It holds up really well and if you like the original and the button lock then you will love the fixed blade.
Lol! Yeah I love the 🍩 too!! Hahaha
The elementum fixed blade is pretty sweet! Thanks for sharing! ✌️ 🔪

Lol! Shh... don't let them hear that.
Already on preorder at Blade HQ.
Nice!
Good stuff 👍
In my opinion the original button lock elementum is wayyyy better
I read somewhere the elementum 2 doesn’t lock closed and can open in your pocket, is that true?
The original is kind of an anomaly in the button lock world that the knife is actually locked. #2 is like most others button locks out there where it isn’t locked but is held closed with spring tension similar to a “detent”. I suppose it’s possible it could open but not very likely.
Great video bro 😎
Thank you! ✌️ 😎
When is it coming Into stock
I like it!
Me too! Very cool and not a bad price. ✌️
When does it come out? BTW, I've used the link/promo for White Mountain Knives a couple times already. Not sure if it helps your channel or not. Anyways, great video. Best wishes
Supposed to be the 10th I think.
Awesome thank you so much! Yeah Jan 10 is the release date. ✌️ 🔪
And as always civivi isn’t available for my area. So I can only admire from a video
how sway?
where are you located?
Sorry to hear that. Do you live somewhere with knife restrictions?
2 on the table I'm getting the candy sprinkles for a girlfriend and the fixed blade for me
Nice! Great choices!! 🔪 🔪
Button was sticky returned mine
not as fun as the regular button lock version, the button is a little different, and recessed deeper, not as easy to open and close in the same way. But maybe just needs to be broken in more.
Yeah there's something very fun and unique about the original
Did you unlist this video for a few days?😂
Yes I did. Lol. I thought within a few days of the release would be fine but apparently not. 😆 suppose to wait until the release date. My mistake! They were cool about it though.
Your constant flipping of the knife interferes with your presentation and is irritating to the listener.
Not for all. I really enjoy it, and prefer it to simply talking.
they made it to dang small, wtf, why not make the bigger one with the flipper tab.
I think they owed it to elementum fans to do one this size.. but a large or xl button lock elementum with a flipper would be sweet down the road ✌️ 🔪
cuz they will do the big one later
people buy elementum like hotcakes so sell the small then sell the big.
Cause the smaller one is better
Need it larger and reversible pocket clip
