The Tenable Shard folding knife delivers bold modern styling, dependable materials, and the kind of smooth performance that makes a great everyday carry. Designed by knifemaker Kim Ning, the Shard blends sharp lines and practical engineering into a knife that’s as capable as it is eye-catching.
Leading the design is a 3.47-inch reverse tanto blade crafted from durable 14C28N stainless steel. Known for its excellent edge stability and corrosion resistance, this steel makes an ideal choice for a hardworking daily carry blade. The reverse tanto profile provides a reinforced tip and long straight cutting edge, giving the knife excellent piercing strength and slicing control. Finished with a striking rose gold coating, the blade brings a distinctive visual style that stands out from the crowd while adding an extra layer of surface protection.
Deployment is fast and smooth thanks to the thumb hole opener, allowing quick one-handed access whenever you need the blade ready. Once open, a sturdy crossbar lock holds the blade securely in place, offering strength, reliability, and easy ambidextrous operation. The action is crisp and satisfying, making the Shard just as enjoyable to handle as it is to use.
The handles are crafted from black aluminum with a diamond-textured pattern that provides both durability and grip. The lightweight aluminum construction keeps the knife comfortable for everyday carry while maintaining a solid, confident feel in the hand. A stainless steel pocket clip ensures secure carry and quick access whenever the knife is needed.
Measuring 4.49 inches closed and weighing just 3.84 ounces, the Tenable Shard balances size, strength, and carry comfort with ease. It’s a modern folding knife built for real-world use while maintaining a bold visual identity.
