SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Chaves Knives Pro-Tech Redencion 229 SW Tanto is a powerhouse automatic built with purpose, precision, and unmistakable attitude. This out-the-side automatic is the result of a bold collaboration between Chaves Knives and Pro-Tech—two names that carry serious weight in the knife world. Built for daily carry, hard use, and those who appreciate tactical edge with refined detail, the Redencion 229 brings iconic Chaves design into the fast-action world of push-button autos.
At its core is a 3.375-inch tanto blade crafted from premium CPM S35VN stainless steel. Known for its balance of toughness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance, this steel handles real-world tasks without flinching. The stonewash finish adds a rugged, worn-in look that hides wear and tear while giving the blade a no-nonsense edge. Whether you’re cutting cord, breaking down boxes, or tackling field tasks, this blade is ready.
The frame is precision-machined blue aluminum, offering lightweight strength with a clean, contoured feel in hand. It's a sturdy, full-bodied handle with a solid grip and smooth lines that echo the original Redencion’s tank-like profile. Firing is fast and reliable, thanks to the Pro-Tech automatic mechanism—just press the button, and the blade rockets into action with authority.
Rounding out the build is a hand-blasted titanium pocket clip in Chaves’ signature milled skull design, set up for right-hand, tip-up carry. Blasted hardware throughout the knife gives it a subdued, no-glare finish that matches the rest of the build. At 4.5 inches closed and weighing 4.45 ounces, the Redencion 229 carries with confidence and comfort, whether clipped to your pocket or packed in a kit.
This knife isn’t just about looks or speed—it’s built to work, built to last, and built with the kind of bold attitude that makes it unmistakably Chaves. If you’re after a dependable automatic that blends premium materials, aggressive styling, and American-made performance, the Redencion 229 is it. Order it today from SMKW!
