"Persian" edc blades?

And then there's this:

I’ll admit I stopped mid-sentence when I saw the Mamba for the first time. This is, to me, a very impressive bold design. I’m not sure if I have a specific cutting task for the Mamba, but I don’t care. I will own one! This was a big bold folder. The flipper barely needed a push to let the blade just fly out. The Mamba’s blade features satin finished flats and the hollow grinds were coated in TiCN if I recall correctly. This bladefinish refers to the fact that Walter Brend is famous for his polished blades. Since such a polish could not be achieved in production, the choice was made to coat the hollow grinds. The handle consists of a hefty titanium frame covered with full carbon fiber handle scales. The knife really locks in the hand, in every edge-out grip. The knife felt surprisingly light and well-balanced. It certainly was a fist full of blade. Simply awesome.

My first thought was Brian Tighe with a Spyderco twist.

If someone could post a picture of the Kershaw Asset, I tried with no luck. This is a great little Chinese made knife with a similar blade design as those featured here. These can be had for less than 20$!!!!!!!! You should handle one before you dismiss as junk.

Looks like a decent knife for the price. Image from Knifecenter. :thumbup:
