Only Knife Worth Bringing to a Gun Fight
Designed for undercover federal agents in situations where they cannot carry a firearm, this knife is purely for self defense. There is no utility value to this knife. It is made to slash and tear through clothing and flesh.
That being said, it is very well made. Easy to deploy the blade. Beautiful curve to the blade that perfectly wraps a forearm or thigh.
Generously sized handle with grippy G10 handles, very comfortable and intuitive in the hand whether reverse gripped or not.
I have never had to use this knife and hopefully it stays that way...just deploying it should make any attacker think twice.
While the tip is delicate, you can tell that were it to break you would still have plenty of blade to inflict damage with.
The Spyderedge (full serration) is one of the unique Spyderco designs that I really like and is a perfect fit for this type of application.
Zippered travel pouch included with knife.
Not a practical tool for most people, but easily the most confidence I have ever clipped onto my pocket.

Pricey but worth it. Super high quality and very intimidating. Just showing this would stop most problems before they start. Usual great service from Optics Planet. Fast shipping, great price, no concerns overt getting a fake.
THE Self-Defense Knife
Addendum ‘Pros’ comment added to my recommendation: The Civilian is supported by Spyderco’s maintenance and sharpening service. I view the factory professional sharpening service as very important due to the ‘Reverse S’ blade shape and serrations.
Pros:
- Top tier build with factory maintenance & sharpening support
Cons:
- None
Best Used for:
- Self-Defense
Would recommend: Yes
THE Self-Defense Knife
First I will reaffirm for potential buyers that the Civilian is NOT an EDC Utility Knife. The Civilian IS an EDC self-defense knife or a collector’s knife due to limited production. The Civilian has razor sharp teeth, deploys smoothly, and locks like a bank vault. The G-10 scales have a quality feel and while being a large folder the Civilian is well-balanced and easily concealed. The Civilian is built in Japan employing excellent VG-10 stainless steel for the ‘Reverse S’ blade. Fit & finish are outstanding. I recommend viewing online videos demonstrating application of the ‘Reverse S’ blade shape.
Pros:
- Top tier build with factory maintenance & sharpening support.
Cons:
- None
Best Used for:
- Self-Defense
Would recommend: Yes
