CIVIVI Gordo Flipper Knife (C22018C-4) – Powder Pink G10 & Satin D2

Compact Build. Overbuilt Strength. Stout Precision Utility.

True to its name, the CIVIVI Gordo—designed by world-class custom knifemaker Peter Carey—is built around a single design philosophy: plain stout. Don’t let its sub-3-inch size fool you. The Gordo is engineered to comfortably outperform your expectations, flexing into a hard-use, do-it-all pocket workhorse that behaves like a far larger tactical tool while maintaining a completely discreet, lightweight pocket footprint.

The C22018C-4 configuration stands out with its highly durable Powder Pink G10 handle scales, adding a vibrant, striking pop of color to a rock-solid industrial tool. Paired with a precision-hollow-ground D2 tool steel blade, the Gordo delivers an unyielding cutting experience backed by CIVIVI’s master-tier manufacturing standards.

Key Features

Hard-Working D2 Tool Steel: Heat-treated to an optimal 59-61 HRC, this premium tool steel provides elite edge retention and extreme wear resistance for demanding, repetitive daily cuts.

Stout Drop Point Geometry & Hollow Grind: The 2.51-inch blade features a refined satin finish and a deep hollow grind. This results in a razor-sharp, precision slicing edge balanced by a thick, structurally overbuilt spine optimized for heavy down-pressure scoring.

Ergonomic Powder Pink G10 Handle Scales: CNC-machined fiberglass composite scales provide incredible impact resistance and a slip-free texture that won't degrade over time. The handle contours ensure a full, confident grip that anchors naturally into your hand.

Liquid-Smooth Ball Bearing Deployment: Equipped with a tuned pivot assembly riding on caged ceramic ball bearings, the blade snaps open smoothly and instantly via the responsive index flipper tab.

Solid Stainless Steel Liner Lock: Nestled perfectly flush within the skeletonized steel liners, the heavy-duty lockbar provides vault-tight structural lockup with a comfortable, seamless release.

Discreet Deep-Carry Pocket Clip: The low-profile stainless steel pocket clip allows the knife to ride completely hidden inside your pocket for low-visibility, tip-up right-hand carry.

Technical Specifications

The Tactical Edge: The spine of the blade is engineered with deep, aggressive jimping right at the thumb rest. This gives you maximum leverage and absolute slip-free control when flexing into heavy-pressure cuts or detailed piercing work.
