The Tenable Knives Fermi Jade is the kind of everyday carry folding knife that quietly commands attention—clean lines, standout materials, and reliable function, all wrapped into a sleek profile that’s easy to carry and even easier to admire. Designed by Burchtree Designs with real-world performance in mind, the Fermi delivers that perfect blend of modern utility and minimalist style.
At the center of the Fermi is a 3.11-inch clip point blade crafted from 14C28N stainless steel, a well-balanced steel choice known for excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness. Whether you're tackling daily tasks or reaching for it in a pinch, this blade holds up. The clip point profile offers great control, especially at the tip, making it ideal for precision slicing and clean pierces. Coated in a black titanium carbo-nitrade finish, the blade isn’t just rugged—it’s protected against wear and corrosion while giving off a sleek, no-nonsense vibe.
Thumb studs on both sides of the blade make for smooth, ambidextrous deployment. It’s a manual folder that opens with just the right amount of resistance, giving you a confident flick into place every time. Once open, the linerlock mechanism kicks in with a solid snap, securing the blade and ensuring a safe, steady experience while you work. It’s dependable, easy to use, and designed to keep up with your day.
What makes this version of the Fermi really stand out is the jade-colored G-10 handle. Translucent and cool-toned, it brings a subtle uniqueness to the knife that feels modern without being loud. G-10 is the perfect handle material for daily use—resistant to wear, temperature changes, and moisture, all while staying lightweight and grippy in hand. The ergonomic contours feel natural and comfortable, making the Fermi a pleasure to hold, whether for quick jobs or longer tasks.
Measuring 4.22 inches closed and 7.33 inches overall, this knife strikes that ideal balance between compact and capable. At 4.3 ounces, it’s light enough for effortless pocket carry but has enough heft to feel substantial. The .13-inch blade thickness offers durability without bulk, keeping the profile slim and streamlined.
A tip-up pocket clip keeps the knife securely stowed and ready for action, and the overall size makes it an excellent fit for jeans, slacks, or a pack. Designed with both function and finesse, the Fermi Jade is versatile enough for everything from weekday routines to weekend adventures.
