Description

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 satin-finished stainless steel 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.

  • Liked the first one so much that I bought a second.
Style: 7097K
Great, thin knife that's easy to carry. Holds an edge extremely well.

  • Nice low profile carry knife.
Style: 7097K
Haven’t really used it for much but I like the size and quality of the knife. I had planned to use it for whittling and for a low profile carry knife.

  • Not my favorite
Style: 7097K
Small, SUPER pointy, doesn't stay sharp. Previous EDC was the sog flash tanto. This one seems to have a softer steel than I'm used to and loses its edge just sitting in my pocket

  • Fits in place of a pen on your shirt. Probably more useful than a pen too.

Sharp stick is sharp. Very nice sharp stick.

  • Very good pocket knife
Style: 7097K
Fits well in the hand and the pocket. Easy to open with one hand, holds and edge well and sharpens easily. I bought a similar CRKT model also and I like both of the them. Recommended.

  • Quite an attractive little blade!
Style: 7097K
A great little knife for every day use. Got me back into EDC'ing a knife since it is so unobtrusive. Well worth the price!!

  • Difficult and inconsistent opening
Style: 7097K
Not sure if I got a dud or there is a flaw in the design, but trying to open this one handed is hit or miss. The flipper is small and stiff and it common to strike the flipper with your thumb or index finger and nothing happens. It has loosened minimally the more I’ve broken it in, and I even lubed the gears, but the improvement is negligible. It’s a good size knife and cool concept, but it’s far from my go to EDC, because it’s extremely unreliable in its opening mechanics. I’ve used Keyshaws, CRKTs, gerbers, etc and no knife I’ve used is this spotty in its opening. Even other CRKT knives don’t have this issue. So yeah, buyer beware. ... show more
