Exciting news! The Redencion 229 knife now comes with a flipper tab, specifically the Lee Williams Kickstop flipper tab. This Blade HQ Exclusive features a black G-10 handle and a titanium frame lock. The Redencion 229 is the largest version of the Redencion design, offering Ramon Chaves' legendary designs with high-quality materials at an affordable price. Its overbuilt design is enhanced by a titanium frame and green micarta handle scales. The knife includes both the signature Chaves skull pocket clip and a standard titanium pocket clip. The titanium construction ensures durability while keeping the knife lightweight and comfortable to hold. What sets the Redencion 229 apart is the Lee Williams Kickstop flipper tab. Unlike most flipper knives, this tab is not part of the blade's tang. Instead, it is attached to the frame with a separate pin. When you open the blade, the flipper tab rotates on its pin and hides within the handle, giving the knife a sleek appearance and providing you with greater flexibility in handling it during use.
