Product Description
The CRKT Tuna Compact 2522, designed by Lucas Burnley, takes the popular Tuna design and scales it down into an even more pocket-friendly everyday-carry folder. Despite its compact size, the Tuna Compact maintains the substantial feel and clean, modern styling that made the original Tuna a popular EDC choice.
The 2.73-inch blade is made from 8Cr13MoV stainless steel and features a stonewashed finish that gives the blade a rugged appearance while helping conceal everyday wear. The plain-edge blade offers a versatile cutting profile for common everyday tasks.
The hybrid handle combines G-10 and stainless steel, balancing grip and durability in a compact package. A frame lock provides a secure lockup, while the thumb stud allows for straightforward one-handed blade deployment.
At just 2.8 ounces and 6.44 inches overall, the Tuna Compact is noticeably lighter and smaller than the original Tuna, making it particularly well suited for customers who want a capable folder that practically disappears in the pocket. A low-profile pocket clip provides convenient everyday carry. (YouTube)

Knife-Depot Take
The Tuna Compact is a great choice for anyone who likes the original Tuna but wants something smaller and lighter. At only 2.8 ounces, it’s extremely easy to carry, while the G-10 and stainless steel handle gives it more substance than its compact dimensions might suggest. The stonewashed blade and clean Burnley design also give it a rugged, understated look that works especially well as an everyday carry.
