 Design & Features

• Blue Label Line: This series is built to deliver Chavez’s bold design language with more affordable materials—swapping titanium for steel liners and micarta or G-10 scales.
• Blade Finish: Available in Black PVD blackout or stonewashed finishes, with a striking compound tanto grind for tactical appeal.
• Handle Options: Most models feature black micarta, while exclusive variants offer red G-10 or other custom scale options.
• Deployment: Smooth flipper action with a solid liner lock for secure use.
• Customization: Comes with both the iconic skull clip and a standard clip, allowing users to choose between bold or discreet carry styles.

 Use & Appeal

• Best For: EDC, tactical use, and collectors who want Chavez design DNA in a smaller, budget-friendly format.
• Why It Stands Out:
  • ELMAX steel offers excellent edge retention and corrosion resistance.
  • Compact size makes it ideal for urban or lightweight carry.
  • Bold styling with the skull clip and tanto blade gives it a distinctive, aggressive look.
  • Blue Label pricing makes it accessible without sacrificing quality.
