Description
Designed for outdoor sports:
- Climbing, mountaineering, mountain use: allows you to quickly cut a cord, a sling, or a rope for various purposes:
- Replacing the cord of a belay anchor.
- Setting up an Abalakov anchor on an icefall.
- Escaping from a route.
- Recovering a rope stuck beyond reach.
- Making a Machard or Prusik knot.
- …
- Paragliding: useful for freeing yourself in case of tangled lines (tree landing, unwanted anchor point, tricky situation). Keep it in the harness or in an easily accessible pocket.
- Hiking, trail running, bivouac: a small, versatile tool that’s always handy — even just for a snack or a quick repair.
- Everyday use: discreet keychain format, always with you, never in the way. Compact and ultralight rescue knife.
Its effective grip with gloves makes it a reliable companion, even in cold or technical conditions such as ice climbing or winter mountaineering.

Pack contents
- 1 Chouka knife.

Restrictions
- This knife is not designed for sawing wood or cutting hard materials: it is too flexible for that.
- Handle with care — very sharp blade. Keep out of reach of children.
- The optional carabiner provided is not suitable for climbing or mountaineering but only for attaching accessories.
Blade lock
Locking / unlocking — closed

For the opening, slightly bend the blade in the direction of the arrow so it passes beside the latch, then unfold the blade.
For the closing, the blade locks itself behind the latch when you fold the knife.
Locking / unlocking — open

Once fully unfolded, slide the blade in the direction of the arrows to lock or unlock it in the open position.
Blade replacement
The blade of the Chouka knife can be replaced easily in about 2 minutes :
- Unscrew and remove the screw (Torx 2.5 mm driver).
- Insert the new blade (with its adapter supplied) into the handle and fit the screw. Do not overtighten the screw so the knife can pivot correctly.
- Check that the knife works correctly (blade locks open and blade locks closed).

Je l’ai vu sur le baudrier d’un ami et j’ai adoré !
Je l’utilise au quotidien sur mon porte-clés : ouverture de colis , picnic improvisé, etc. Très pratique !
Very useful! I like the locking system.
Objet super sympa, j’en ai acheté plusieurs. Mieux que d’autres coupe-suspentes plus lourds qui ne servent que a couper des suspentes. Comme améliorations, je pourrais imaginer avoir plus de matière autour de l’anneau qui risque de casser à la longue. Un petit sac pour le protéger lorsque on le garde en permanence dans une poche pourrait être utile, il semble que l’acidité de la sueur attaque un peu la lame. Mais tel quel c’est déjà un bel objet très réussi.
Tip top comme couteau de secours.
J’en ai pris un dans chaque taille. Je préfère l’autre modèle qui est un poil plus gros mais celui-ci va très bien aussi.
Système blocage lame rentrée et sortie pas top
Je l’ai rajouté à mon kit de secours pour le parapente à la place du coupe-suspente que j’avais auparavant, je trouve ça plus polyvalent.
Très bien, exactement ce que je cherchais depuis longtemps comme couteau de secours (très petit et très léger).
Parfait comme couteau de secours pour emmener en montagne.
