The CRKT CEO Blackout 7097K delivers professional-grade cutting performance in a sleek, business-appropriate design. This folding knife combines the precision of AUS-8A stainless steel with tactical aesthetics that won't draw unwanted attention in corporate environments.
What Makes This Different
The CEO Blackout features a unique flipper opening mechanism that deploys the blade with one-handed operation, while maintaining the refined appearance of a gentleman's folder. The black EDP (Electro Deposited Paint) coating on the AUS-8A steel blade provides corrosion resistance and reduces glare. Unlike traditional tactical folders, the CEO's minimalist profile measures just 0.47 inches thick when closed, making it ideal for professional carry without printing through dress pants or suit jackets.Key Features
