Nice review! Sorry to hear that the painted scales aren’t holding up. I’m the guy (At Home Hack) that did the CEO Compact “Buyer Beware” video 5mo ago. I was hoping mine (small batch from CRKT) was the only few that had this problem. I just disassembled & fixed (painted) my scales and made a KZbin vid. (in case you want to take a gander ; ) I wanted to see if others had this same paint issues & now watched 2 vids + my experience w/this issue. That’s how I came across your vid on the Compact.

I agree completely with you. This is just a very cheaply made knife that shouldn't sell for more than $10. Richard Rogers knocked it out of the park with the design. I wished he would have pressed CRKT to use better materials. The handle alone starts paint chipping right out of the box. I would gladly buy this knife for $50 but only with better materials.

I wish they had stayed with aus8 or 8cr, 1.4116 seems like a step too low for such a nice designer piece. I'd rather pay a little more money.

I actually like the original CEO. Looks like a great knife though.

This is the first CEO I’ve been interested in and one of the only CRKTs to pique my interest in a long time.

I was hoping to find out if it was better than the original. Any comments?
@7redi2 жыл бұрын
I did never have the original but i prefer it as a flipper instead of the thumbstud for such a slender folder. Thanks for the comment!

I prefer smaller knives and the original was too large in my opinion. Let's be real, these knives are really letter openers. Not much else.
