The Chaves Knives x Pro-Tech Redencion 229 Operator is a formidable automatic folding knife born from a powerful collaboration between the bold, distinctive design of Ramon Chaves and the unwavering precision of Pro-Tech's manufacturing. This "Operator" variant embodies a no-nonsense, tactical aesthetic while delivering the lightning-fast deployment and rock-solid performance Pro-Tech is renowned for.
Built for those who demand uncompromising quality and readiness, the Redencion 229 Operator features a robust 3.375-inch tanto blade crafted from premium CPM-S35VN stainless steel. This high-performance steel ensures exceptional edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness, ready to tackle demanding tasks. The blade is finished with a sleek, non-reflective sterile black DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) coating, enhancing durability and reducing glare.
The handle is constructed from durable black aircraft-grade aluminum, providing a secure and ergonomic grip. True to its "Operator" designation, the knife features a unique tritium push-button for reliable, swift automatic deployment, even in low-light conditions. A black DLC-coated steel pocket clip ensures secure, tip-up, right-hand carry, while some exclusive versions may feature a distinctive skull-milled titanium clip, a signature touch from Chaves Knives.
The RCR1103-OPERATOR is more than just a knife; it's a statement of rugged elegance and tactical efficiency, proudly made in the USA. It's the perfect companion for everyday carry, offering a blend of aggressive styling, top-tier materials, and an instantly responsive automatic action.
