In 2021, CIVIVI—the value-premium brand of WE Knife Co.—released the Riffle (C2024 series) as a rugged, no-frills EDC folder emphasizing simplicity, durability, and smooth action. Debuting around early 2021 (with first looks and reviews surfacing in spring, YouTube overviews from April–May 2021), it joined CIVIVI's growing lineup amid post-Elementum success, targeting users seeking a reliable workhorse without excess flair
The CIVIVI Riffle features a 3.46-inch drop-point blade in premium Sandvik 14C28N stainless steel (58–60 HRC, gray stonewashed or satin finish) for excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and easy sharpening, with variants in Damascus. It offers dual deployment (flipper + thumb hole), caged ball bearings for snappy action, a secure liner lock, textured Micarta (brown, olive, green), G-10/carbon fiber, or wood handles, and a reversible tip-up pocket clip. Weighing ~3.38 oz, its ergonomic 4.52-inch closed length delivers balanced grip and versatility
Priced affordably (~$50–$80 MSRP), the Riffle earned praise for its clean design, comfortable Micarta scales, hidden lanyard post, and "boring but perfect" reliability—ideal for everyday carry (EDC knives), outdoor tasks, or heavy use. It spawned premium Damascus editions and remains a sleeper hit in CIVIVI's portfolio for blending classic utility with modern production quality
