Product Description
The CRKT CEO Flipper is the ultimate "gentleman’s tactical" folder, designed by Richard Rogers to be as discreet as a fountain pen. This model provides a high-performance narrative by pairing a 3.35-inch AUS-8 stainless steel drop point blade with an ultra-slim profile that disappears into a shirt or suit pocket. Unlike the original thumb-stud version, this iteration features a streamlined flipper tab and the IKBS™ ball bearing pivot system, ensuring a lightning-fast and butter-smooth deployment. Built with a lightweight black glass-reinforced nylon (GRN) handle and a secure liner lock, the CEO is the perfect low-profile companion for the boardroom, the office, or any environment where professional aesthetics and reliable utility are required.
Key Features:
-
IKBS™ Ball Bearing Pivot: Provides a frictionless opening action, allowing the slim blade to deploy instantly with a simple pull of the flipper tab.
-
Premium AUS-8 Steel: A high-performance Japanese stainless steel known for its excellent balance of toughness, edge retention, and ease of sharpening for daily maintenance.
-
Low-Profile Deep Carry: Equipped with a recessed pocket clip that mimics the appearance of a pen, ensuring the knife sits deep and securely while remaining accessible for one-handed operation.
