The Tenable Bombur Black is a powerhouse of an everyday carry folding knife—bold, overbuilt, and purpose-driven. With a commanding presence and no-nonsense design, this manual folder is ready to tackle serious work while maintaining smooth function and pocket-worthy versatility. Whether you're a seasoned user or just stepping up your daily gear, the Bombur Black offers the kind of confidence you can feel with every cut.
At the heart of the knife is a 3.53-inch drop point blade crafted from tough D2 tool steel, known for its excellent wear resistance and edge-holding ability. This blade isn't afraid of hard use. The stonewash finish gives it a rugged, work-ready appearance while also helping to mask scratches and scuffs from regular carry. It’s a look that gets better with use, aging gracefully as it puts in work across a wide range of tasks—from box duty and rope cutting to campsite food prep and everything in between.
Deployment is fast and intuitive thanks to the oversized thumb hole, offering smooth one-handed opening without the need for springs or assistance. Once open, a sturdy linerlock holds the blade firmly in place, ensuring safety and stability during use. The action is clean and solid—no rattle, no play—just reliable performance every time you reach for it.
The handle is where the Bombur Black truly sets itself apart. Built from durable black G-10 with a striking frag pattern texture, it offers an aggressive grip that stays secure in all conditions. Whether you’re wearing gloves, working in wet weather, or operating under pressure, the handle stays planted in your palm. At 4.85 inches closed and weighing in at a substantial 7.55 ounces, the Bombur feels like a true tool—solid, ready, and built to outlast.
Despite its weight, the balance is excellent, and the ergonomics ensure it remains comfortable even through extended use. The handle scales are thoughtfully contoured to fill the hand, providing leverage and control when precision matters most. It’s a knife that demands attention but rewards with performance.
With a beefy .19-inch blade thickness, the Bombur Black offers extra durability at the edge, making it ideal for heavy-duty users who don’t compromise on strength. It’s an everyday carry that leans hard into hard use—strong enough for field work, refined enough for daily carry.
