I bought a Baby banter, then a Banter, then I lost the Baby and bought another one. Then i bought the Big banter. The Lander 1 Then the Baby Wharncliffe. Then I started watching your channel here and subscribed a few months back. Then TODAY, after I watched this video and went to check out the Sendy model, realized who you were (Banter) Ahahhahahhaahah! I think my brain exploded, I can be sooo slow sometimes. Look, for realz. I LOVE your designs, they are snappy, perfect carries, and they WORK. I just want to say, as a multi-purchaser, and a fan, Thank you. I am going to follow you on your adventure journeys and your are inspiring me to create my own. Kudos Sir.

Gawd I freaking love when knife designers explain the inspiration. It REALLY makes a knife more special. I didn't really need another knife before. Now I want one 😑 Touche

Great knaf ahmm knife. 2 Hand opening NO nail nick, Backlock, scissors and a woodsaw and it would be PERFECT - as a KNAF with the scale swap option

Love this so much... Been Sober bout 3 n half yrs and Watching you one of your vids back in the beginning got me back into collection n really using knives , which has helped me stay sober this long. Thanks for loving the Riddle of Steel as much as I do.

This was a journey of a knife introduction. Loved it!

I just did a double take and realized the name did change. I remember setting up the notification for when the Cedar would be in stock at Knafs and I just immediately hit buy when the notification email came in.

A Ben design is always a good design. A man of knowledge and experience. Cudos!

This video is incredibly shot/edited and of course the story with it fits incredibly well! Gonna order a sendy and one of those knafs hats soon!

So solid. So very solid.

It’s wonderful to get a view into the journey of the knife design and designer. Keep it up!

Really cool to get some insight into your design process/philosophy for the Sendy! Would love to see more content like this!

I just became a civivi fan. The sendy will be my first model. And then the storm ridge.

Ordered my Sendy. Thanks for building products we can enjoy, Ben!

A super great knife. Knafs designs are the best designs.

Just got one. The toothpick & tweezers combo did it for me! 👌

I really like my sendy, aka cedar. Nice little pocket knife with beautiful wood scales. Keep ‘em coming!

Love the story Ben. I saw the Sendy on the KC site a few days ago and popped it on my wishlist. The design and spey blade just spoke to me. Now that I know the story behind it, I'm gonna have to tell them to "send it" to me soon. Thanks for everything you do for the knife community.

Great story and way to keep our attention the whole time. Definitely subscribed. I can't wait to see more.

Great knife and video! Congrats! 🇲🇽

Beautiful knife! Def on my wish list.

I’m excited for this one.

Great video Ben! I'm waiting for my Sendy to get here. I know I'll love it like all of your other designs. They're all aces. Thanks and Take care.

Loved the story! Went to go look for that cedar knife and saw it was found! Stoked on that guys stoke for finding it! And stoked to buy that knife because it looks so bad ass !!

Loved your first knife, the lander didnt do it for me but this sendy seems like it's for me. Count me in

Love it! Just got the Baby Banter n the Lander a couple months ago and have been carrying them everyday! I’m 3 1/2 hours away from the first coordinate down in Oakridge but with the current ice storm situation it might be impossible at the moment😅 Keep up the good work brother!

Still ordered one, I'll still call is the Cedar

Good stuff, just bought one of these for my little brother and me. Love this design.

Awesome man!

It is a great looking knife!!

Ordered the black one! Keep it up!

THIS. I love your other content for sure…but this reminisces back to your blade steel video with that “HQ” place of going out and just adventuring outdoors. I can’t imagine running a side-hustle-gone-full-time leaves a lot of room for video content so thank you for this fun little video adventure. And yeah, I’ve been waiting for this knife since it got teased in some civivi video from some blade show a while back. Shipped today. “Snows too soft, another day another beer”

Good video Ben

inspirational and honest story telling.

That detent sounds on point

Incredible story telling, my friend! The Cedar…no, *Sendy 😉 looks incredible. I love the classic Coleman colorway and all of the fine details that you put into this. Well thought out, as always!

Such a fun video!

awesome video

After years of knife buying I am now very particular and a knife has be stand out as something I don’t already have if I’m going to buy it. The Sendy with the twizzers and pick got me! I have the wood scaled drop point model on order. I have many Civivi knives and everyone of them has been a good value and a great build.

I love this knife, just ordered one! can't wait! #sendit

Well if you’re lucky you met my father Jim or the fantastic Laura, they were the rangers at Cedar Mesa FOR EVER. A part of my soul remains their due to the sure magic. All the best. LOVE the knife. Keep up the humble/vibrant/thoughtful work.

I was the first one to buy it from the physical Knafs store today. 🙌

Increíble historia amigo Ben ❤❤❤ solo quedaba decir " envíalo!!! Envíalo!!!😢 esta hermoso el diseño y las vivencias que lo forjaron ❤

Just ordered!

picked up this knife after waiting for it to become available here in Canada for a while... been loving it so far, shame about the name! but it's still absolutely great, I use it in a woodshop so the tweezers also get a lot of use.

Missed the first drop, just swooped up the spey point in green g10. Cant wait for it to get here in oregon!

Sidequest woulda been a cute name that maintains its versatility as urban edc to adventuring. And renaming it, kinda was a sidequest. I think knife designing ia genuinely so cool, what a good problem to have lmao

Love it ✌️

WIUG?! I’m a fan of all your designs and I have to admit I own at least 1 or more of each and every one of them. Also, I just bought a black on black Sendy, and now I need to buy the green micarta version. Thank you for the great video and keep up the great work brother!!!🔪🖤🗡

That's too bad about the name, behind my house here in VT we have kind of this bog area that's full of cedar trees. Definitely one of my favorite trees around here!

Congrats on another great design Ben! I would've called it the "Plank"

I love the tweezers. I wish there were more knives with that feature

great design... LIKE ;-)

Ben I don’t know what it is about the design of this knife. I think it’s the old school meets new school. That just speaks to me so obviously had to pick one up. Keep up the awesome work.

More please

I got two fortune cookies from the same place weeks between visits and both said the same thing "now is the time to fuffill your dream of traveling abroad" coincidence sure, same place, same stock, but this just hit something inside of me, and reminded me of a dream i had where i walked out of what seemed a industrial area into a clearing with mountains in the distance. I can't travel abroad due to.. reasons. But ive always like the idea of traveling by train, ive done a few trips to davis and Sacramento, currently working on saving up and getting out that front door.

👍🏼very nice I like it.

Subscribed 🦉

If this was a spine or button lock i would buy 20 of them. I need locking blades in my life

I have a Baby Banter in Black G-10/Satin blade. I think it's a great alternative to the Spyderco Dragonfly. It's a great 5th pocket knife or my Bob Terzuola ATCF also made by Civivi in Nitro V,

6:23 - Never Forget

This knife is awesome I recently reviewed it

Great video! I've posted it to the Civivi subreddit, where I'm a moderator. We'd love to have you do an AMA there some time!

Ordered

Great name! Super cool knife! Scientific name for a cedar tree is Cedrus Libani. Maybe a Knafs Cedrus in the future?

If you issue a second edition, please see if there’s a way of making the back spacer out of cedar. Out of an homage to the original name. I won’t tell anybody. And I’ll buy another. 😎

Now I'm hungry!

Three hour drive to get to those coordinates in Cedar City. Feeling “Sendy”

Awesome knife. Gonna have to get one of those for sure. I just have to ask who’s the Larry enticer fan?😂😂 4:25

The unique blade profile alone makes this a must-buy for me. What's the inspiration for the spey blade?

You should make a salmon colored Sendy, for a Samy Sendy edition

You should have called it wood.

Hey Ben I featured your knife a few times in my channel and a few of your other designs I am a big fan if you want to send me some to review let me know I will show it on my channel

there’s like a mini pen and ferro rod for the victorinox, i wonder if they are compatible?

Any idea when these will restock? I totally want one. :)

Garnish!😂

Did Peter McKinnon give you pointers on this video? I feel like he had maybe a touch on this, lol!

You should have called it the “seeder” although… maybe not 😂😂😂😂

Are the scales still easily interchangeable as shown in the early proto drawings??

How in the heck did you make a spay blade, look kinda cool?!

I wish there were music credits

Could man get some scissors on the sendy 2?

Gordon Ramsey is jealous ! He just might have to duplicate that Salmon cookout ... just because :)

New series: Ben vs Wild

Looks like a Swiss Tech Würdigg...

Great story👍wish my son would leave home 😡

Lmao Ben what was the name gonna be when you shot this 😂😂

I suppose if someone goes to those coordinates they will comment about it?

Listen all I’m saying is laws prevent Ben from calling it cedar but what’s to stop us, the public, from calling it the cedar/sendy interchangeably?

Checked the Cedar City location and the knife was gone 😢

I removed my original comment because it was unnecessarily critical and unkind. Respect for the effort you made to fix a difficult situation.

Because they are rot resistant, same with in Yellowstone, fire is the major source of removing excess debris. Yeah, regular fires are NECESSARY. The recent fires have been so adverse because environmentalists have legally enforced no burns.🤦‍♂️

shame it's so expensive...

Apple seasoning, should have brought 2 apples.

Why not use another type of cedar.. like there's more than just the one tree called cedar.. or use its scientific name..

Ben can you send me one free of charge kinda hard times

How can someone copyright the name of a tree? This is what is wrong with corporate America… FFS!

No, no, and more no... It looks like we are going back, way back...

First lol

Stupid name. Cedar was better.
