At the core is a 3.47-inch reverse tanto blade made from 14C28N stainless steel. This steel is praised for its great edge retention, corrosion resistance, and ease of sharpening, making it a practical choice for an everyday blade. The reverse tanto profile provides a strong, reinforced tip for piercing, along with a straight cutting edge that excels at controlled slicing. Finished in a vibrant blue, the blade catches the eye while maintaining a professional, durable look suited to everyday use.
Opening the blade is effortless and smooth thanks to the thumb hole, which offers quick one-handed deployment and works well for both left- and right-handed users. The crossbar lock ensures a secure blade lockup, offering confidence and safety during use. This locking system is known for its robust performance and ambidextrous convenience, making it a favorite among enthusiasts who demand reliability.
The handle features black aluminum with a diamond texture that’s not just about looks—it’s designed to provide a secure, comfortable grip in any condition. Aluminum offers a lightweight yet sturdy frame, and the textured pattern enhances traction, so the knife stays firmly in hand even when things get slippery. The handle’s sleek design balances durability with style, making the Shard Blue & Black as functional as it is visually appealing.
Measuring 4.49 inches closed and 7.96 inches overall, the Shard Blue & Black sits perfectly in the carry sweet spot. It’s compact enough for comfortable everyday carry but big enough to give you full control during cutting tasks. Weighing just 3.84 ounces, it’s light enough to carry all day without fatigue but solid enough to feel dependable in hand.
Additional thoughtful features include a lanyard hole for customizable carry options and a discreet pocket clip that makes everyday carry easy and unobtrusive. These small touches add convenience without cluttering the knife’s clean, modern aesthetic.
