The Chaves Black Label Dissident OTF Auto brings rugged American craftsmanship, premium materials, and unmistakable styling together in an exclusive design created for Smoky Mountain Knife Works. Built for everyday carry, this double-action out-the-front automatic combines fast, convenient operation with a distinctive Shipwreck finish that sets it apart from the crowd. With its aggressive tanto blade, premium M390 steel, and eye-catching CamoCarbon inlays, this Dissident is a standout addition to any serious knife collection.
At the heart of this automatic is a 3.70-inch tanto blade crafted from Bohler M390 stainless steel. Known for its outstanding edge retention, corrosion resistance, and wear resistance, M390 is a premium blade steel designed to handle demanding everyday tasks. The angular tanto profile delivers a reinforced point and a strong cutting edge, making it a practical choice for users who appreciate added tip strength and dependable cutting performance. Finished with a plain cutting edge, this blade offers excellent versatility for everyday utility. The double-action OTF mechanism allows for quick deployment and retraction with the convenient thumb slide, providing smooth, one-handed operation.
The Dissident features a durable aluminum handle accented with striking Shipwreck CamoCarbon inlays. The combination of rugged aluminum and distinctive CamoCarbon creates a bold appearance, with rich colors and unique patterns that give each handle its own character. The Shipwreck styling adds a weathered, treasure-inspired look that makes this exclusive model especially hard to overlook. Measuring 5 inches long, 1.21 inches wide, and 0.46 inches thick, the handle provides a substantial grip while maintaining a comfortable profile for everyday carry. At just 4.50 ounces, this automatic offers a solid feel without weighing down your pocket.
Designed for right-handed users, the Dissident includes a tip-down pocket clip for convenient carry and accessibility. Its 8.70-inch overall length gives it a full-size presence, while the 3.70-inch blade provides plenty of cutting edge when you need it. Proudly made in the USA, this Chaves automatic reflects a commitment to quality materials, rugged construction, and distinctive design.
