The C62 Navigator is a small knife with a short blade designed for travel by air and business carry. It can be viewed as a descendant of the C09 CoPilot and shares very similar design goals.
Initially introduced in 1997 with a G-10 handle as the CX02 Experimental 2, in 1998 (?) this model was assigned the C62 SKU and given the name "Navigator". Variations with Almite coated Aluminum handles also exist.
A very similar model designed and introduced in parallel to the Navigator exists: The C61 Pegasus has a slightly different and smaller blade shape and a Stainless Steel handle.
A few years after discontinuing the C62 in 2003, the name "Navigator" reappeared with the C93 Navigator II.
