The Gear & Outdoors shelf is the field and carry side of CIVIVI. Right now Knives Now stocks 135 CIVIVI SKUs in this category, from a $10.92 Sphere Paracord Lanyard up to the $141.38 Cloud Peak fixed blade, all picked and packed in our Woodlawn, Virginia warehouse and shipped to all 50 states. That price spread tells you what this is. It is a broad wall, not a niche shelf, covering camp and pack fixed blades, a run of one-hand button-lock work folders, and a tail of low-cost carry accessories that round out an order. Free shipping kicks in over $149.
CIVIVI launched in 2018 as the value-focused, utilitarian everyday-carry line of WE Knife Co., Ltd., the Chinese maker Joe Cheung founded in 2000. This category is where that everyday-tool mission shows up outdoors: knives and gear meant for camp chores, pack duty, and daily cutting, framed as tools and outdoor kit. For the full founding story and the complete warranty explainer, see the CIVIVI brand overview. For the core folder-and-lock lineup, see CIVIVI knives in stock.
The headline of this category is CIVIVI's outdoor fixed blades. The Cloud Peak is a full-tang camp and field knife stocked in three handle trims: wood at $141.38, and black and green at $136.50 each. It is the kind of blade you reach for around a campsite for wood processing, cordage, and general cutting, where a fixed blade with no moving parts is simpler to use and simpler to clean than a folder.
The Typhoeus Adjustable fixed blade takes a different angle. Stocked in green and gray at $108.92 each, its draw is an adjustable design that lets you change how the blade sits for the task in front of you. Both are camp and pack tools first. Nothing on this page is framed as anything other than outdoor gear and everyday cutting tools.
A fixed blade earns its keep on longer trips because it takes rougher work than a folder and stays easy to wipe down and dry. Match the blade to the chore. A camp knife handles kitchen prep, cord, and light wood work without the flex of a small folder, and it does not ask you to open and close a lock with dirty or cold hands.
If you are building an outdoor kit from scratch, a fixed blade is usually the anchor and a folder is the pocket companion that rides along the rest of the time. The Cloud Peak sits in the range where a camp knife stops feeling like a budget compromise, and the Typhoeus is worth a look if the adjustable design fits how you like a blade to sit in hand. Both come sheathed for pack carry, and both are simple to keep clean between trips.
Alongside the fixed blades, this category carries a cluster of CIVIVI button-lock folders. A button lock is a one-hand-operable mechanism: press the button to disengage and fold the blade. Described plainly, that is a convenience feature for working with a full or busy hand, nothing more.

Several of these carry Damascus-patterned blades, which is a visible thread in CIVIVI's stock. We list them by the catalog name and the trim only. We do not publish steel specs, edge geometry, or performance claims we cannot source. If you want the deeper linerlock and framelock family ladder, that lives on the CIVIVI knives sub-hub, not here.
The bottom of this category is a run of small, honest add-ons. None of them is a flagship, and we are not going to pretend otherwise. What they are good for is finishing a cart and rounding an order over the $149 free-shipping line.
The math is straightforward. Pair the Cloud Peak in wood ($141.38) with a lanyard, a Key Coin, or a Quick Snip, and the order clears the $149 mark, so shipping is free. These are the kind of low-cost pieces that are easy to say yes to when they are already on the same page as the knife you came for.
The Quick Snip is a small fixed blade in its own right, handy for cord, tape, and packaging, and the pack version gives you a spare on hand. The Key Coin pieces are pocket and keyring add-ons, and the Sphere Paracord Lanyard is the cheapest way to add a positive grip pull to a blade or a zipper. None of it is a headline purchase, and we are not going to dress it up as one, but all of it is real stock sitting on the shelf in Virginia.
Basic care keeps any of these tools working. Wipe a blade down after use, dry it fully before it goes back in a sheath or pocket, and add a light film of oil to the edge and pivot if it has been wet or worked hard. Steel rusts when it stays damp, so drying is the single most useful habit for camp and pack knives. Keep the edge sharp with proper sharpening gear, because a sharp knife under control is safer than a dull one you have to force.
Use each tool for what it is. A knife is for cutting. When a job calls for prying or scraping, reach for a pry tool, not a blade tip. That is a handling point first, and it also matters for coverage: CIVIVI warrants its knives to the original owner against defects in material and workmanship for the life of the product, repairing or replacing with the same or an equal-value model, but misuse such as prying or throwing, improper sharpening, and third-party modification are excluded, and an RMA is required before you send anything in. The full warranty walkthrough lives on the CIVIVI brand overview.
Every CIVIVI order in this category ships from our real Virginia warehouse. We stock it, we pick it, and we pack it ourselves. Nothing here is dropshipped. To see the whole wall in one place, browse all gear and outdoors.
