Chaves x Pro-Tech Redencion OTS Auto Grey Aluminum Handle SW Tanto Blade CK-1A10-2B3F-6D13

The Chaves x Pro-Tech Redencion OTS Auto Grey Aluminum Handle SW Tanto Blade is a disciplined blend of bold design and precise American-made performance. Built by Pro-Tech and styled by Chaves Knives, this out-the-side automatic captures the unmistakable Redencion identity while delivering the fast, consistent action Pro-Tech is known for.

Designed by Ramon Chavez, the Redencion 229 Auto carries the same confident geometry and visual weight that made the platform iconic. The 3.375-inch tanto blade is ground from CPM S35VN steel, a proven performer that balances toughness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance for dependable everyday use. The flat grind provides efficient slicing, while the reinforced tanto tip adds strength and control where it counts. A stonewashed finish helps mask wear over time and reinforces the knife’s working character.

Deployment is handled by Pro-Tech’s push-button automatic mechanism, delivering crisp, authoritative blade action with every press. The out-the-side opening is fast and consistent, locking solidly for confident use. This is a knife that feels deliberate in operation, with smooth engagement that reflects tight tolerances and careful assembly.

The handle is machined from aluminum and finished in a clean grey tone that keeps the look understated while still unmistakably Chaves. Subtle contouring and solid proportions give the handle a secure, comfortable feel in hand without excess bulk. At 4.45 ounces, the knife carries a reassuring weight that matches its size and intent, offering balance without feeling heavy in the pocket.

With an overall length just under eight inches and a 4.5-inch handle, the Redencion OTS Auto fills the hand naturally and maintains strong control during extended cutting tasks. The streamlined aluminum construction keeps the profile clean and practical for daily carry, while the automatic action adds speed and convenience when seconds matter.

Proudly made in the USA, the Chaves x Pro-Tech Redencion OTS Auto stands as a clear example of what happens when distinctive design meets disciplined manufacturing. It’s a knife built for users who value strong lines, premium materials, and automatic performance that doesn’t compromise reliability.
