Got mine in the mail yesterday. I’ll get a torx bit tomorrow.

I can't wait to get one of these!

I use utility knives a lot so over the years I've collected so many different "fun" and "interesting" utility knives and there's things about this knife that I definitely am a fan of like the thumb studs and the shape/overall look but unfortunately the downsides for what I like far outweighs that. For one, not having a toolless blade change immediately makes it very impractical for what I do, I much rather have a very small amount of blade play or wiggle if it means I get a quick blade change system. Secondly, and I assume this is much more of a niche problem but for what I do I am not a fan of having that much blade exposure whatsoever. having that much blade is probably better when using it as strictly a boxcutter but for a construction type job I will only use a knife with the typical half exposed at a time.

Is there any blade play? As I see it's only held tight by that tiny screw... So you think it's gonna be a problem after a lot of use? Thanks

I own alot of utilty knives and if Civivi wants a market share instead of just a niche, they best rethink that tooled blade swap or they'll go the way of the Gerber EAB and find their product on a WalMart peg board.

I'm really sad about the recent trend to throw a thumb stud on everything.

It’s ruined by the fact you need a torx bit just to swap the blade. Should be tooless
