High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Chaves Handy Utility Blade (C.H.U.B.) OTF with a black aluminum front handle and olive drab green rear handle delivers rugged utility with a refined, tactical edge. Compact yet sturdy, its 3.4" dual-tone handle balances durability and grip, with the black aluminum face presenting a sleek, hard-wearing surface and the OD green rear offering a rugged military-inspired finish. The contrast in colors gives this EDC tool a distinctive character that blends function with style. Equipped with a 1" replaceable razor blade, it’s purpose-built for precision cuts—whether slicing rope, breaking down boxes, or handling fine detail work.
Its double-action out-the-front (OTF) mechanism ensures smooth, one-handed deployment and retraction at the push of a button, keeping the blade ready when it’s needed most. Lightweight at just 3.5 oz, the C.H.U.B. offers a carry-friendly profile without sacrificing toughness. Designed by Jesper Voxnaes and crafted in Maniago, Italy, it embodies a blend of modern design and European craftsmanship that’s immediately evident in its fit, finish, and operation.
With a tip-down, ambidextrous pocket clip, this knife is built for reliable everyday carry. The contrasting handle colors not only enhance grip awareness but also create a unique aesthetic that stands apart from standard utility OTFs. Practical, collectible, and undeniably functional, it’s the kind of EDC tool that looks as sharp as it performs.
