The Chaves Handy Utility Blade (C.H.U.B) OTF Automatic in Black Hefted Aluminum is a bold, innovative take on the everyday utility knife—combining premium craftsmanship with the convenience of a replaceable razor blade system. Designed by Ramon Chaves, this OTF (out-the-front) automatic utility knife delivers fast, one-handed deployment in a compact and rugged EDC package.

Built with a 1-inch replaceable utility blade, the CHUB OTF offers unmatched practicality—simply swap out blades instead of sharpening, making it ideal for cutting boxes, plastics, rope, and daily tasks. The double-action OTF mechanism ensures smooth, reliable blade deployment and retraction, giving users quick access with a satisfying, fidget-friendly action.

The handle is crafted from hefted black aluminum, often featuring a crosshatch or textured pattern for enhanced grip and durability. Signature Chaves styling is evident with the iconic skull pocket clip, adding a distinctive tactical edge while maintaining secure carry. Despite its compact size, the CHUB OTF is built tough for consistent daily use. Community feedback highlights its solid construction and smooth action, making it a standout among premium utility knives.
