The NO7 Knife Company Chub Fixed Blade is a compact, hard-working knife built with a no-nonsense approach to performance and durability. Designed for those who value strength in a smaller footprint, the Chub delivers dependable cutting power in a stout, easy-to-carry form. It’s the kind of blade that feels right at home in your pocket, on your belt, or in your pack, always within reach when real work needs to get done.
This knife reflects NO7 Knife Company’s commitment to handmade craftsmanship. Each piece is individually built, giving it a level of attention and character that mass-produced knives simply can’t replicate. From the grind to the handle fitment, every detail is dialed in to ensure the knife performs as good as it looks. It’s a purpose-driven tool that doesn’t rely on flash, but instead proves its worth through consistent, reliable use.
The Chub’s compact profile makes it especially suited for everyday utility tasks. Whether you’re breaking down boxes, handling light outdoor chores, or keeping it close as a backup blade, it offers solid control and a confident feel in hand. Its stout build gives it surprising strength for its size, allowing it to punch above its weight when pressure is applied.
The handle features black G-10 scales secured with a bolted construction, delivering both durability and a secure grip. G-10 is well known for its resistance to moisture, temperature changes, and wear, making it a dependable choice in a wide range of environments. The bolted design not only reinforces the structure but also adds to the knife’s clean, functional aesthetic. It’s built to stay solid through repeated use without loosening or shifting.
Ergonomics play a key role in the Chub’s design. The handle is shaped to fit naturally in the hand, providing a stable grip that enhances control and reduces fatigue during extended use. Despite its compact size, it feels substantial and balanced, giving you confidence with every cut.
Paired with a sheath for secure carry, the Chub is always accessible and protected when not in use. It’s a straightforward setup that complements the knife’s practical design, keeping it close and ready for action whenever needed.
