CIVC25066A1: C25066A-1 Ben Petersen Baby Banter Slipjoint Folding Knife - Blue G10

CIVIVI Knives

Ben Petersen's iconic sub-compact EDC champion sheds its liner lock to create a truly global pocket companion. By swapping out a traditional locking mechanism for a smooth, non-locking slipjoint setup, this iteration preserves everything people love about the platform while making it fully legal to carry in areas with strict local knife laws. The flat-ground Nitro-V drop point blade features a rugged, glare-reducing gray stonewashed finish that stands up to heavy everyday slicing. The handle features vibrant blue G10 handles built around stainless steel liners, maintaining the ultra-ergonomic forward finger choil that lets you get a full, secure grip despite the knife's tiny footprint. For deploying the blade, dual titanium thumb studs are paired with classic bronze washers in the pivot, ensuring an exceptionally smooth, manual two-handed feel or careful one-handed roll-out. Complete with a fully reversible deep-carry stainless steel clip, this slipjoint variant reinvents a modern classic into the ultimate, globally compliant utility folder.

Very happy with slipjoint version of Baby Banter
Baby Banter's are amongst my favorite knives in my knife colleciton and I now own 7 of them in four different versions, the regular liner lock, the fixed blade (huge disappointment), the crossbar lock and now this slipjoint version. I am a huge fan of this Civivi model for both its size and utilitarian factor. This model fits great in my medium sized female hand and are easy to deploy and use with the exception of the fixed blade version. I was attracted to this latest version this Baby Banter not only because of the 'burple' colored handles but because it was slipjoint, which I could take overseas. I own over 300 slipjoints and I think there are only a couple of others I deploy with a thumb stud but this one has the added bonus of ease of opening with the thumb stud or just pulling it out by hand (unlike many slipjoints that are fingernail breakers). I also love the half stop opening of this knife, which has a very satisfying feel. All in all I highly recommend this small pocket knife for anyone who loves the Baby Banter, the color 'burple', a thumb stud deploying slipjoint, and/or a very well crafted and affordable slipjoint. Heck, most Case Cutlery knives don't cost as little as this knife.
