The CRKT CEO Compact in black is a 2.61-inch folding knife from Columbia River (brand part no. 7095KX) dressed for success, easily mistaken for a pen tucked into a shirt pocket. That is exactly how the CEO family was designed: an extremely low profile without cutting corners on usability or ergonomics. An IKBS ball-bearing pivot deploys the high-carbon 4116 stainless steel blade smoothly, and the blade is easy to sharpen when it is time for touch-up. The black glass-reinforced nylon handle keeps the knife light in the pocket, and a liner lock closes easily with one hand.
