Civivi Vexillum Review: A Closer Look at the Budget-Friendly EDC Option

Hey everyone, welcome back to another blog review! Today, we’re taking a deep dive into a brand-new knife from Civivi — the Vexillum. Known for producing quality knives at accessible prices, Civivi doesn’t disappoint with this one. Whether you're a seasoned knife enthusiast or just getting into the world of EDC, the Vexillum could be the perfect blade for you.

Let’s jump right in!

Unboxing the Civivi Vexillum

First, let’s start with the unboxing experience. The Vexillum comes in Civivi’s signature minimalist packaging: a sleek, simple box. Inside, you’ll find a black Civivi carrying pouch, which adds a nice touch if you're someone who likes to keep your knife in pristine condition. Along with the pouch, you get a couple of extra items like the standard Civivi documentation and stickers.

But, of course, the star of the show is the Vexillum itself, which comes in three distinct G10 handle variants: green, black, and blue. The knife I have today for review is the blue & black G10 version, and it's a real beauty.

Design & Build Quality

Let’s talk about the design. The Vexillum has a modern, clean aesthetic that stands out in Civivi’s lineup. The handle is made from durable blue & black G10, which not only provides a comfortable grip but also looks visually striking. It’s textured just enough for a secure hold without being abrasive.

The pocket clip is non-reversible, positioned on the back of the handle. It’s a deep-carry clip, which ensures that the knife sits comfortably in your pocket, with only a small portion of the handle peeking out. One thing to note is the linerlock mechanism located in the middle of the handle — you’ll see this in action as you close and open the knife with ease.

Blade Details

Now, let’s get to the good stuff: the blade. The Vexillum features a 3.81” Nitro-V steel blade. Nitro-V is known for its excellent corrosion resistance and edge retention, making it a great choice for a budget-friendly EDC knife. The blade itself has a clip-point style, which is perfect for general-purpose cutting tasks and offers good precision.

The satin finish on the blade gives it a sleek look, and the flat grind provides a sharp, robust edge that can handle daily use without issues. You’ve got multiple ways to deploy the blade: two thumb studs on either side of the blade for ambidextrous opening, and a flipper tab on the back for a more traditional "flick" action.

Specs & Performance

Let’s go over the specs to help you get a better idea of the Vexillum’s overall size and weight:

• Handle Length: 5.22 inches
• Blade Length: 3.81 inches
• Overall Length: 9.03 inches
• Weight: 6.12 oz

At just over 6 ounces, it’s a little on the heavier side for a knife of this size, but that weight adds to the overall solid feel of the Vexillum in hand. It’s a perfect balance between substantial and manageable, making it ideal for EDC use while still feeling sturdy.

Pricing & Final Thoughts

So, how much will this beauty set you back? The Vexillum is priced at $94.95 on our website for the green and black G10 variants, and the blue G10 model is just slightly higher at $95.80. Considering the quality materials, build, and performance, it’s a great deal for anyone looking for a reliable EDC knife without breaking the bank.

In conclusion, the Civivi Vexillum is a solid choice for anyone in the market for a new everyday carry knife. It has all the hallmarks of a well-made Civivi: premium materials (like Nitro-V steel), a sleek and functional design, and a price point that’s hard to beat. Whether you’re looking for a workhorse to get through everyday tasks or just appreciate a solid knife with some flair, the Vexillum won’t disappoint.
