The 3.5-inch drop point blade is crafted from proven 154CM stainless steel, offering a well-balanced combination of edge retention, toughness, corrosion resistance, and ease of sharpening. Its stonewashed blade finish provides a rugged appearance that naturally hides the marks of everyday use while maintaining a refined look.

Smooth one-handed operation comes from the reliable thumb stud opener, allowing quick access to the blade whenever you need it. Once deployed, the sturdy liner lock secures the blade firmly in place, giving you confidence during demanding cutting jobs. Measuring 8 inches overall with a 4.5-inch handle, the Liberation 229 provides a comfortable, full-size grip while maintaining a practical profile for everyday pocket carry.
The black knurled aluminum handle offers a durable and secure foundation, providing excellent traction without adding unnecessary weight. The textured surface enhances control during extended use, while the lightweight aluminum construction keeps the knife balanced in hand. This model is finished with striking blue PVD titanium accents on the hardware and pocket clip, creating a bold contrast against the black handle and stonewashed blade. The vibrant blue details add a custom-inspired touch while preserving the rugged personality that defines the Chaves brand.
The iconic skull clip has long been a signature feature of Chaves knives, but the Blue Label Liberation 229 gives you more carry flexibility. This model comes equipped with the streamlined secondary pocket clip installed from the factory for a clean and versatile appearance. The legendary skull clip is included in the box, allowing you to switch between a subtle everyday look and the unmistakable Chaves style whenever you choose.
