The Kizer Shard is a super compact folding knife, designed by Dirk Pinkerton. Featuring a Wharncliffe style blade, it offers maximum utility paired with plenty of unique style. Its 2 inch blade is made from high end N690 Blade steel. The Shard's stud allows the knife to be flicked open with the thumb. The blade deploys swiftly and locks in with a satisfying click. The deep carry pocket clip means that the Shard sits securely in the pocket which is always a welcome feature. The included lanyard hole also allows you to fit it out with a lanyard of your choice.
The shard has great grip and functionality wrapped into a compact package. Fit and finish of these knives are top notch!

Quality little blade. Paper cutting sharp out of the box. Non confronting, almost a stocky little gentlemans EDC that is handy and capable for light tasks. Comfortable three finger grip and good jimping on the top of the blade for fine work. Fidget friendly.
Great summary of the Shard! thanks for your review, hope the shard serves you well into the future.

My first Kizer knife, and I'm very pleased with it. Certainly a smaller knife, but operates quite well. Smooth snappy deployment and feels comfortable in the hand. All round good quality. It's always a pleasure dealing with Adventure Carry
Hey Chris,
Thanks for the review, glad you're pleased with the shard! Kizer make some great knives. I'm keen to see it in some of your awesome Instagram photos.
Cheers
