Civivi Starflare: The New Darling of Stylish EDC

Recently, it seems that We Knife Co. has entered the realm of Wharncliffe knives. Following their collaboration with Maciej Torbé to release the Yardbird, the in-house design team at Civivi is set to unveil another highly anticipated piece - the Starflare. This is a super sleek button-lock folding knife equipped with a Wharncliffe blade, redefining EDC (Every Day Carry) fashion with its unique design.At first glance, it's often difficult to judge the size of a Wharncliffe blade. While you might mistakenly assume that the Starflare is a petite tool, its blade length actually measures 8.1 centimeters, with a total length of approximately 20 centimeters, placing it squarely in the medium-sized category.Like many modern Wharncliffe blades, the Starflare is intended to be an ideal cutting tool for everyday carry. Its design is backed by Civivi's commonly used Nitro-V blade steel, a steel that has been eagerly anticipated by knife enthusiasts for its widespread application in budget-friendly knives. While D2 steel remains more popular in the market, Nitro-V is undoubtedly a good choice in this price range, offering better corrosion resistance than semi-stainless steels and being easier to sharpen.
