Chaves Dissident OTF Knife - M390 Tanto & "Purple Haze" Carbon Fiber Inlay

The Chaves Dissident OTF brings Ramon Chavez’s bold, overbuilt design into a fast, hard-hitting double-action out-the-front platform. Built for speed, reliability, and everyday performance, the Dissident combines premium materials with aggressive styling that stands out in any carry lineup.

This variation features a Bohler M390 tanto blade, delivering excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and long-term durability. The drop point profile offers a balanced cutting edge that handles both slicing and precision work with ease, making it a strong choice for everyday carry and real-world use.

Up front, the double-action OTF mechanism provides smooth, responsive deployment and retraction with a single thumb slide. The action feels fast and consistent, built to perform reliably whether you're using it daily or keeping it as part of a collection.

What sets this version apart is the "Purple Haze" carbon fiber handle, giving the knife a bold, retro-inspired aesthetic while maintaining lightweight strength and durability. The layered pattern creates a unique look on every piece, while still offering a comfortable and secure grip in hand.

Slim, lightweight, and built with purpose, the Dissident carries easily in the pocket while still delivering the power and presence of a full-size automatic knife. If you’re looking for a premium OTF that blends performance with standout design, this version of the Dissident hits that balance perfectly.
