Chaves CHUB Slipper Blue Label Folding Utility Knife Stonewash/Gray Aluminum CK-6C11-5B6F-6D15

The Chaves Blue Label CHUB Slipper Folding Utility Knife reimagines two of Ramon Chaves’ most recognizable designs into a compact, fast-acting everyday cutting tool. It blends the rugged TAK (Tiny Ass Knife) handle profile with the CHUB’s replaceable utility blade system, creating a streamlined folder built for efficient, repeat-use cutting tasks. This version features a stonewash blade holder paired with gray anodized aluminum handles, delivering a rugged working finish with a clean, understated industrial look.

Instead of a traditional flipper, this model uses a thumb slide “slipper” mechanism for deployment. The sliding action provides smooth, controlled blade release with a mechanical feel that’s quick, consistent, and intuitive. It’s designed for users who prefer direct, repeatable operation in a compact utility platform built around speed and simplicity.

The squared-off handle shape maintains excellent control in a small footprint, supporting a secure three-finger grip that feels stable during cutting tasks. Whether breaking down boxes, opening packaging, or handling daily shop work, the CHUB Slipper keeps things efficient with the convenience of standard replaceable utility blades.

Gray anodized aluminum handles keep the knife lightweight while still providing strong structural durability. The slim profile carries easily in the pocket and can also serve as a money clip-style tool, adding versatility without unnecessary bulk or complexity.

Produced by Reate Knives as part of the Chaves Blue Label series, the CHUB Slipper reflects precise machining, tight tolerances, and the bold, functional design language Chaves is known for. The Blue Label line was created to make Ramon Chaves’ iconic designs more accessible while preserving the performance, materials, and fit and finish the brand is recognized for.
