The CRKT CEO in Desert Tan proves that a capable everyday carry knife doesn't have to look tactical to perform like one. Designed by Richard Rogers, this slim gentleman's folder takes its cues from the profile of a premium executive pen, slipping discreetly into a shirt pocket while remaining ready for everything from office tasks to everyday cutting chores. Its refined appearance is matched by practical performance, making it an ideal companion wherever the day leads.
The 3.35" straight back blade is crafted from dependable AUS-8 stainless steel, delivering an excellent balance of toughness, corrosion resistance, and easy maintenance. A black EDP finish enhances durability while giving the blade a clean, modern look that contrasts beautifully with the Desert Tan handle. At just .09" thick, the blade excels at precise slicing, controlled utility cuts, and everyday tasks without unnecessary bulk.
Deployment is fast and intuitive thanks to the low-profile blade flipper, allowing smooth one-handed opening whenever the job calls for it. Once deployed, the sturdy linerlock secures the blade confidently, providing the strength and stability needed for reliable daily use. Every element of the mechanism reflects Richard Rogers' focus on blending simplicity with dependable function.
The Desert Tan GRN (glass-reinforced nylon) handle keeps weight to an absolute minimum while offering impressive durability and a comfortable grip. Its slim profile carries effortlessly, disappearing into a pocket while remaining easy to retrieve with the tip-up pocket clip. Measuring 4.35" closed, stretching to 7.69" overall, and weighing only 1.9 ounces, the CEO delivers full-sized utility in an exceptionally streamlined package.
