CIVIVI Sendy
The CIVIVI Sendy is Ben Petersen's love letter to the traditional pocket knife, rebuilt with modern materials. Originally designed under the name Cedar, the Sendy pairs a Barlow-style handle and a classic blade with conveniences pulled straight from a Swiss Army knife, giving you a nostalgic everyday carry that still cuts like a modern folder.
A Modern Take on a Traditional Pocket Knife
The Sendy's appeal is in the details. The full flat grind runs thin behind the edge over slender blade stock, so it slices well above its size on everyday tasks while keeping a non-threatening, people-friendly profile. The blade rides on a caged ceramic ball bearing pivot tuned for one of the most satisfying slow-roll openings in this price range. Jimping on the spine and lock bar adds traction for controlled cuts, and a reversible deep carry clip carries the sub-three-inch knife low to either side.
Flipper and Slip Joint Versions
The Sendy comes two ways. The original Sendy uses a slim, subdued flipper tab over a liner lock, deploying the blade with a light touch and locking it open for working tasks. The Slippy Sendy reworks the same platform as a non-locking slip joint, trading the lock and flipper for a traditional back-spring feel that carries easy where locking knives draw scrutiny. Both share the same dimensions, blade geometry, and carry, so the choice comes down to whether you want a lock or a classic slipjoint.
Toothpick, Tweezers, and Carry
What sets the Sendy apart from most modern folders is what hides in the handle. Like a classic Swiss Army knife, it stores a steel toothpick and tweezers tucked into recesses on each side, a small touch that earns its keep more often than you would expect. The backspacer carries an integrated lanyard loop, and the original ships in both a spey point and a drop point blade shape.
Steel and Handle Options
The Sendy line runs Nitro-V throughout, a US-made nitrogen-enriched stainless that stays tough, resists corrosion, and takes a keen, easy-to-restore edge. Handle materials lean into the design's roots, from contoured and cedar-textured milled G-10 to canvas Micarta, milled Guibourtia wood, and Ultem on the Slippy Sendy, each shaped over stainless liners for a solid, hand-filling grip.
