This Odium model has a black G-10 handle and a stonewash finished blade.
The CIVIVI Odium is a collaboration with the designers at Ferrum Forge Knife Works. The Odium is based off the amazingly popular Archbishop. It has a broad blade that opens either with the thumb hole or the flipper tab. The handle is relatively simple, and allows several different grip styles.
Features:
Clean and functional Ferrum Forge design.
Handle and finger choil provide grip options.
Drop point blade profile maximizes cutting performance.
The fit and finish on the knife is exceptional, as one would expect from Civivi. It came razor sharp out of the box, able to pass testing with magazine paper straight out of the package. The G-10 is smooth but grip isn't sacrificed thanks to a deep finger choil and jimping for your thumb. I have hands much like Kurt's Christmas hams (see the YouTube channel). When choking up and using the forward choil it just reaches all 4 fingers, which for a small blade is impressive. It's perfect for work where blades can be scary and elegant enough for gentleman's carry. Civivi yet again knocks it out of the park.
Excellent knife for small hands and small pockets

Classy offering from Civivi with distinct Ferrum Forge looks! I have XS-Small lady hands and this knife is ideal for me--but generous finger choil also means that it accommodates bigger mitts, too. It has the satisfying action and quality of both materials and workmanship we've all come to expect from this brand, and thoughtful design to boot. Fits great in all my little pockets. Only thing about this knife, which I've heard others also comment on, is the detente is a little strong for thumb-opening. You big handed people probably wouldn't consider it, but even properly tripodding my fingers, it's not worth opening this knife with my thumb. Flicks open just fine with index or middle finger and the flipper is of course a snappy option too.
Excellent Budget EDC Knife

This knife is exactly what you would expect from Civivi. Action is great, no blade play, and centering is perfect. Blade was sharp out of the box. With a 2.65" blade, this is perfect for my EDC.
nice small edc

I was looking for a D2 blade that was short enough to satisfy my EDC for the office. The Odium fits my 5th pocket in my jeans and the knife is sharp! The action is smooth and positive. I really like the knife. It is not good for my desire to have multiple knives though. I can see myself developing a new hobby.
