Columbia River Knife and Tool: CRKT CEO Flipper Blackout, CR-7097K
The 7097K CRKT CEO Flipper Blackout, designed by Richard Rogers, is a welcome addition to the popular CEO lineup that features a 3.35 inch normal blade made of AUS 8 stainless steel, .09 inch thick, with a non reflective black EDP finish, and a flipper for ambidextrous one hand opening. The super slim black GRN (glass reinforced nylon) handle, 4.35 inches closed, has subtle patterned texturing for secure purchase and visual interest, IKBS ball bearing pivot system for smooth deployment, steel liners for strength, sturdy liner lock and a side to side reversible deep carry pocket clip mounted at the butt end. The CRKT CEO Flipper Blackout has an overall open length of 7.69 inches, and it weighs 1.90 ounces. Made in Taiwan.
From the CRKT website: A knife that's dressed for success. At first glance, it could be mistaken for a pen tucked into a shirt pocket. And that's exactly the way the CEO Flipper folding knife was designed. With a supremely low profile and no corners cut on usability and ergonomics, it embodies the working spirit of everyday carry.
Known for his clean, simple, highly-usable designs, Richard Rogers releases another formidable knife from his shop in the scrubby hills of Magdalena, New Mexico. Created with dress shirt pockets and v-neck scrubs in mind, the slim, low-profile CEO Flipper poses as a pen until a sealed letter needs opening or a suit needs a finishing touch. With lubed ball bearings in the pivot to reduce friction, a prominent flipper sets IKBS™ in motion, smoothly deploying the blade. A locking liner keeps it securely in place between the sleek and strong glass-reinforced nylon handle.
The CEO: pairs best with an extra dark roast and a long to-do list.
