The first word that came to mind when I unpacked it was: serious. The quality of the packaging, the build of the product, the harmony of the shapes, the balance between handle and blade, the fine blade thickness: this is a brand that gives you your money’s worth. It looks modern, but also playful in grey. The blade: razor sharp — properly razor sharp, so mind you don’t lose a finger ;). It looks absolutely superb, pointy and slim. The aluminium-like handle feels soft and reassuring in the hand. Ideally a bit of titanium or carbon would be brilliant, but at £140 on offer it’s hard to do better. Not light, but not heavy either: 107 grams with the clip on the scales. I’m only just discovering EDC (I only have an Opinel No. 9... and a Goyard :)), and I’m having an absolute blast with it: easy opening, a delicious sound; closing is a bit less obvious...). I let off steam on an Amazon box: a massacre. I’m no pro, but apparently S35VN steel has already proved itself. In short, I’m very pleased with my purchase.

I don’t like small, skinny knives; they hurt adult hands. But thanks to its parabolic handles, this one fits large hands very nicely — a welcome exception. The Brova is extremely thin overall, much thinner than the PM2. I love Spyderco, but after more than 20 years of collecting I’ve developed a bit of “Spydy fatigue”. I needed some variety, and Spyderco prices are now frankly unreasonable. After several CPM steels from Chinese brands with poor heat treatments (Kansept S35VN, the worst S steel I’ve ever tested: rubbery feel, extremely underperforming, rubbish; D2 and NitroV were good), I feared another bad experience. Instead, Civivi delivered a very good heat treatment, even with medium HRCs by US standards, 58–60. The blade came extremely sharp. With my experience, I refined and polished its excellent starting sharpness further, and it passed all my accuracy tests (splitting tests, extreme standards — the KT staff know). The hollow grind is superb, extremely acute and homogeneous; it’s like having a straight razor in your pocket... awesome, and I do use straight razors, even for shaving (wet-shaving user, and I also build straight razors). I have a bias towards modern premium steels: Maxamet, 15V, CruWear, Magnacut, K390, 4V, M4... my favourites. But this S35VN achieved extreme sharpness very early; one of the best S-steel series I’ve ever tested, on standards similar to Spyderco, and even more precise on the Brova thanks to the extremely acute geometry and hollow grind. I have all the main S steels: S30V, S35VN, S45VN (too much chrome, the worst; never exceed 15%, less is better), Spy27, S110V... This S35VN set new sharpness records, amazing. It even beat CruWear and 15V for sharpness, surprisingly. The lock is good for light EDC tasks, light-duty use (for heavy duty: CS Recon 1). This new ELITE series is not marketing; it really is ELITE, well worth it, highly recommended. Pricey, but the quality is high and Spyderco prices are now unreasonable, too high. For cost effectiveness, buy the Sencut Serene D2; for premium, buy the ELITE Brova S35VN. My favourite Brova is the bronze blade with black handles, followed by the grey one; I bought both. I hope to see more ELITE models with US steels and thicker handles, in warmer materials (micarta, G10, wood) and longer 4-inch blades. A hollow grind is always welcome. Overall: Brova 9/10 True ELITE, recommended
