CIVIVI quietly posted two of its most recognizable designs at $30 this week, and the listings deserve a careful read before anyone assumes it is a straight discount. The Elementum C18062AF-3 and the BullTusk C23017-2 both appear on CIVIVI's store at $30 under special-price SKUs tied to a free-gift promotion.
The Elementum in that listing is the familiar 2.97-inch Nitro-V version with black canvas Micarta scales. It is the knife that made CIVIVI's reputation: a compact flipper with a clean drop point, a liner lock, and a pocket clip that actually works. Nitro-V holds a fine edge, resists corrosion well, and sharpens easily, which is why it remains the default steel on the model years after release.
The BullTusk is the larger option at 3.48 inches in 14C28N with coarse G10 scales, offered in black or OD green. 14C28N is a sensible step toward toughness compared with Nitro-V, and the larger blade makes the BullTusk a better fit for outdoor tasks where the Elementum runs out of edge. Thumb-hole and flipper opening give two ways to deploy it, which is more useful than it sounds with gloves on.
At $30 these undercut almost everything in the category. A standard Elementum has long sold around $50 to $60, and the BullTusk sits in the same range, so the special-price SKUs are roughly half off if the bundle terms work for the buyer. That caveat matters: promotional SKUs sometimes require an additional item or apply to one unit per order, and stock moves fast on listings like these.
