Description
The Tenable Tipper B1079A5, designed by Edgy Bladeworks, is a bold and distinctive everyday carry folding knife that blends unconventional styling with practical cutting performance. Known for its unique cleaver-style blade and ergonomic design, the Tipper delivers excellent versatility while offering a fun and fidget-friendly user experience.
At the center of the knife is a 3.39-inch cleaver blade crafted from Damascus steel, featuring a layered pattern that gives each blade a unique appearance while maintaining dependable cutting performance. The wide blade profile and straight cutting edge maximize slicing efficiency, making the Tipper highly capable for everyday tasks such as opening packages, food prep, utility cutting, and light outdoor use.
The flat grind enhances cutting performance by providing a thin, efficient edge while maintaining durability and edge strength. A stonewashed finish complements the Damascus pattern while helping conceal light wear from regular use.
The Tipper is designed with smooth and intuitive operation in mind. A thumb stud deployment system paired with a liner lock mechanism allows easy one-handed opening and secure blade lockup during use. The addition of a finger choil provides improved grip control and allows users to choke up on the blade for precision cutting tasks.
The handle is constructed from amber PEI (Ultem), a lightweight yet durable thermoplastic known for its strength, chemical resistance, and striking translucent appearance. The ergonomic handle design provides a comfortable grip while keeping the knife lightweight for everyday carry.
Designed by Scott Stills of Edgy Bladeworks, a custom knife maker based in Asheville, North Carolina, the Tipper reflects his passion for bold designs and functional craftsmanship. Its distinctive blade shape and comfortable handling make it both a capable cutting tool and an eye-catching addition to any EDC collection.
With its Damascus cleaver blade, lightweight Ultem handle, and smooth liner lock operation, the Tenable Tipper B1079A5 is a unique and practical folding knife built for everyday carry, utility tasks, and knife enthusiasts who appreciate distinctive design.
