CIVIVI P87 Flipper Knife (C21043-1) – Black G10 & Bead Blasted Satin Swedish Nitro-V
Sleek Minimalist Framework. Multi-Deployment Versatility. The Ultimate Lightweight EDC.
The CIVIVI P87 is built around an uncompromising design principle: fluid operational speed hidden inside a razor-thin, lightweight geometric profile. Stripping away the excess bulk common in traditional tactical folders, the P87 functions as an executive-tier gentleman’s carry piece that packs defensive-grade structural toughness. It rides completely weightless in your pocket until it's instantly called into action.
The C21043-1 configuration represents the original, clean-cut classic styling for this model family. It mates durable, fine-textured Black G10 handle scales with a premium, bright Bead Blasted Satin blade. Utilizing a high-performance Swedish Nitro-V steel layout, this folder offers an incredibly snappy deployment action that is built to effortlessly slice through daily work, boxes, cordage, or defensive utility tasks.
Key Features
Premium Swedish Nitro-V Stainless Steel: Cryogenically heat-treated to an optimal 59-61 HRC, this specialized steel is heavily enriched with nitrogen and vanadium to provide elite corrosion resistance, outstanding edge stability, and long-lasting slicing performance.
Sleek Clip Point & Full Flat Grind: The precision flat grind ensures an incredibly thin cutting edge that moves through heavy materials with minimal resistance, paired with a swedged clip point spine optimized for clean, accurate piercing.
Clean Bead Blasted Satin Finish: The uniform bead-blasted blade coating offers a refined matte-satin finish that elegantly showcases the sleek, straight machine lines of the frame.
Textured Black G10 Handles: CNC-machined fiberglass composite scales provide high impact resistance, temperature stability, and a reliable, moisture-resistant grip. The slim handle thickness ensures a zero-imprint pocket footprint.
Multi-Deployment Mechanism: Equipped with a tuned pivot riding on caged ceramic ball bearings, the blade can be deployed seamlessly using either the low-profile index flipper tab or the integrated dual thumb studs.
Solid Stainless Steel Liner Lock: Nestled flush within skeletonized stainless steel liners, the solid lockbar ensures vault-tight safety when open, while allowing for a smooth, simple one-handed release.
Ambidextrous Deep-Carry Pocket Clip: The black stainless steel pocket clip allows the folder to sit ultra-low and hidden inside your pocket for discreet, tip-up carry (reversible for right or left-hand users).
