What blade steel does the CIVIVI Noctis series use?

How large is the handle on the Noctis folders?
The Noctis handle typically provides a three-and-a-half-finger grip, though the design allows users to choke up for a full four-finger hold. This flexibility makes the knife comfortable for a variety of hand sizes without adding unnecessary bulk to the overall profile.
What is the blade shape and grind of the Noctis?
The Noctis series utilizes a straight-back blade profile with a full flat grind. This combination, paired with relatively thin blade stock, results in a very efficient slicer that excels at precision cutting tasks.
What handle materials are available for the CIVIVI Noctis?
The Noctis series offers several handle options, including textured G10, olive canvas Micarta, and Guibourtia wood. These choices allow you to select a variant that prioritizes either maximum grip or a more traditional, refined aesthetic.
