Chaves Redencion 229 Blue Label Linerlock Folding Knife Satin Drop Point/Blue G-10 CK-1A2-1B2A-1C0-5F

The Chaves Blue Label Redencion 229 delivers Ramon Chavez’s unmistakable overbuilt design language in a full-sized folder that’s made for hard use, smooth action, and dependable everyday carry. Built on the proven Redencion platform, it keeps the bold geometry, outstanding ergonomics, and rock-solid construction that define the series, now paired with a clean, versatile configuration that highlights the blade’s craftsmanship.

The blade is a classic drop point profile crafted from premium ELMAX steel and finished in a clean satin grind. The satin finish brings out the precision of the blade’s lines while offering a practical, refined look that works just as well in the field as it does in a collection. The drop point shape provides excellent versatility, with a strong, controllable tip for piercing tasks and a long, sweeping edge that excels at slicing and general cutting. ELMAX steel is widely respected for its excellent edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance, making it a reliable choice for serious everyday use. A thumb stud opener combined with a ball bearing pivot delivers fast, smooth, and consistently satisfying one-handed deployment.

The handles are built from blue G-10 scales over durable steel liners, creating a lightweight yet extremely strong frame designed to take on daily wear. The textured G-10 offers a secure, confident grip in a wide range of conditions, while the liner lock keeps the blade firmly secured during use. The overall feel is solid, balanced, and built for real-world performance.

A tip-up pocket clip supports right-side carry, and the knife includes both a standard clip and the signature Chaves skull clip for added customization. For left-side carry, the liner is pre-drilled and the scale includes subtle guide divots that allow for clean clip relocation without compromising the knife’s sleek design.

The Chaves Blue Label series brings Ramon Chavez’s iconic overbuilt knives to a broader audience while maintaining premium blade steel, rugged construction, and no-nonsense functionality.
