I just picked up the version with black micarta scales & dama steel. Got mine for 70 bucks, "used my bladehq member points to knock down the price". This is one awesome knife and the locking system is just as good as my shark lock AD's.
I asked Civivi and FG does stand for Field Grade. Core steel is 10Cr15CoMov clad with alternating layers of 5Cr15Mov and 316. The clip position was the one thing that stopped me from getting the Vision R. Just didn't want it twisting against me or my pocket 🤷♂️ I did buy this very model of the Vision FG and I am very much looking forward to getting it in.
The hole in the front is so you can look inside and see how the lock works. I really don't care about seeing the lock engage, but whatever. Seems like that will increase the odds of pocket lint getting into it. I was going to get the green micarta version, but the more I looked at this version, the more I liked the look of it so ended up ordering this one. Should be here tomorrow. Normally I'm not a big damascus fan, but this one really looks good to me for whatever reason.
Careful…taking apart…I was in my kitchen and when I pulled the back scale off… parts flew! 😫😭..THANKFULLY I walked into the living room to check the score on the ballgame and saw the pin that holds the spring in! It was laying on my rug 20 feet away! I got LUCKY!😂😂😂. COOL KNIFE!
I’ve got the R already and love it. The FG in this configuration will be here Saturday. I’m excited for this one with the new Damascus Civivi is using. Thinking of getting the strike next.
I would swap the Damascus blade to the R if i were you 😁 I have a red Sentinel Strike, absolutely love it, ergonomics and blade shape are great, love the red sheen of the aluminum handle. It's slightly big, but not too heavy at all, its a good work knife
Hey Lee, you got the exact one that I wanted but wasn’t quick enough to WMK. Then they got a few more but I was ill. Still have my vision R, I thought about selling it but didn’t want to buy it again later on.😄
Hi Lee. I’ve been away from collecting for a couple of years. Thanks for a great review as always. What better knife to start up with than a Civivi that has an unusual lock and VG10 Damascus.
@paulaguirre9213 He had to make up for the cutout with the base of the original and it was a bit tight, but it worked. I wish they had centered it, instead.
I simply screwed the clip from the Böker Magnum blue Jay onto the Civivi Vision fg. Visually, in terms of feel and in everyday life, it fits perfectly. 😅🤷♂️👍
Hey bud I need some advice…I was wondering how much the lock feels like a flipper tab in comparison. I’m not a fan of thumb tabs so I just want to make sure it’s close. Seems like a great knife otherwise. Thanks for your input. Keep making great content.
@@Electrogeist it doesnt feel like a flipper tab in any way shape or form because its not a flipper tab. its functionally more similar to a button lock
@@peen2804 I purchased one, customized its scales, & spent time with it since this last post. It most definitely DOES feel like a flipper tab. Just because its function is meant for something else doesn’t mean that it can’t “feel” like a flipper tab.
The damascus has a center layer of 10Cr15CoMoV which is VG10. It‘s not a tough as Nitro-V (especially not as damascus), but it does have better edge retention.
I have the same one but for me is the WE Vision R a way much better! I am not so impressed but for 100€ its okay! Only the Clip is better for me as from the Vision R! I have now both Damast Modell! 😉

We really need a bigger version ... Vision BFG 😁
Absolutely love the idea
Vision BMF 😄

I was wondering what the damascus composition was, thanks!
Thanks for the info on the Damascus composition
@@tacticalcenter8658Gonna be a light user/pocket queen for me. Got about 15 other beaters that'll outshine this damascus in every way
@@tacticalcenter8658older civivi Damascus is better
Their customer service is really helpful when it comes to details about their products.
And that‘s not a bad steel if the heat treat is right.
The blue, textured titanium clip looks great on this knife!
I just ordered one from WMK for Christmas. I never had a Damascus blade before so I'm excited. It just really caught my eye.
How are you liking it?
Cool to see your old school intro. I missed them. Oh, and awesome knife, too.

Right? Civivi is doing the most lately with that Wemascus
Thanks Man, got the Natural G10 version and as well got the Civivi Sentinel Strike toooooo from your other video!

Just got mine but they rubbed off all the etching on the spine from factory. Luckily Amazon still has some, replacement will be here Friday.
I want one of these so bad. But i think i like the smock better and the m4 endura. But this is next up. I just want the nitro v version.
They are back in stock on Amazon. Ordered mine yesterday
9:55 the hole is intentional for ease of cleaning

Maybe this is super obvious, but I've found that a magic eraser is the best way to remove stains/marks from white g10.
Fancy new intro! I like it!

I liked the Vision R so much that now if have both the Vision FG in the white & Damascus but also in the Ultem
@@LuvThemKniveswhich scales do you like better?
@@skupiony.na.bombie right now I’m on an Ultem kick but I prefer the overall look of the white scales with the damascus blade.
The blade looks amazing!! Mimics the appearance of Damacore a bit.
Very cool knife! Great video thanks 👍
can't wait...i am hoping to find a badass clip to swap in it
Stassa23 put a Civivi titanium clip on it and it alleviates the 'hot spot' the stock clip produces.
@@іѕоторё yea it didn't quite fit, i have a few of those tho so we shall see
@paulaguirre9213 He had to make up for the cutout with the base of the original and it was a bit tight, but it worked. I wish they had centered it, instead.
I wonder if you take out that pin, does it keep the same functionality? "Easy to clean" was the- wow you answered my question (Snex did, technically)
But the titanium Kizer clip for the Vision FG! The Civivi version doesn’t seat properly. They’re like $15
Can they make a 4" version like they did with the Synergy 4??

Not sure what you’re asking. It’s definitely not a flipper tab type of feel. But it’s definitely a nice knife.
@@LuvThemKnives was just more or less asking how much it felt close to a flipper tab using that lock. thank you

Idk what made them choose white scales... 😢
Love that knife. When it Comes to sharpness whats better ? NITRO V or the Damascus ?
I think the Nitro V is better
@@LuvThemKnives Thanks Buddy. Then i have to Order a nother civivi with Nitro V. But this time its the great Damascus Look thats catchin me.
@@hollywoodheino27. I bought the damascus on this as well
The damascus has a center layer of 10Cr15CoMoV which is VG10. It‘s not a tough as Nitro-V (especially not as damascus), but it does have better edge retention.
I'm not sure the new lock is worth the size, weight and the impact to the permissible blade shape. Thanks for showing the insides.
does the premium version dent the cutting edge on an internal stop pin a quarter inch from the choil the same way as on the other variants?
Did u ever find out what the FG stood for?
Field Grade
I ended up getting the natural g10 version since I don't own anything in natural g10
Isnt there a risk of activating the lock when pulling the knife out of something?
Mikey LIKES!!!
I have the same one but for me is the WE Vision R a way much better! I am not so impressed but for 100€ its okay! Only the Clip is better for me as from the Vision R! I have now both Damast Modell! 😉
Jared from Kneeve knifes made the comparo with the WE version and surprise the CIVIVI win 👍🏻😃💪
😍
🤩🤩🤩
i made it 10 sec in by
You mean Bye not by. You passed it by or said bye ? 😂
I'd buy one if they offered beautiful pearl scales.
That could be really nice without the three holes and scale cover nasty waffle texture. A smooth polish on scale covers would be better.
Ya think there’s gonna be some aftermarket ones available soon ?
@@LuvThemKnives I hope brother. Thanks for your reviews as always.
Agreed, the holes make it look so tacky. I'll wait for the existence of aftermarket solid scales before picking one up
What age group is your target audience?
30-45 is the main group. Not sure why you’re asking. But a bunch of my audience is also 55+
