*SOLD*. Spyderco Persian C105 (75 mm) by Ed Schempp, with Black Micarta handles and brushed stainless bolster. Hard-to-find discontinued model. Purchased new several years ago, but very lightly used. Blade and handle are in very nice shape. I am asking for $70 net via PayPal (add 3% for a total of $72.16). I'll pay for shipping and insurance via USPS Priority Mail. Sorry, but original packaging and documentation are not available. No trades, please.

Custom knifemakers are more than simply steel junkies. Ed Schempp is a wheat farmer, metallurgist and celebrated knifemaker whose Persian Folder introduces Classic Western with Exotic East. Persian knives traditionally are fixed blades but Ed integrates this indigenous shape into a folding knife. Comprised of graceful curving lines, the new smaller Persian Folder 75mm is eye-catching with black Micarta handle scales capped by polished stainless bolsters. On the handle a series of finger choils position the hand for complete control over the cutting edge. Its Eastern inspired blade arches into a curving belly and ends in a graceful upswept tip. The 2-15/16" (75mm) blade is made of high-performance VG-10 steel (hollow-ground) with a prominent hump positioned above the hole as a thumb leveraging spot. The pocket clip positions the folder to carry right-handed tip-up. A small portion of steel removed from the locking lever offers additional lock safety and is called a David Boye Dent. It permits tightly gripping the handle without grasping with enough force to inadvertently disengaging the lock during use.

Sorry, but I received a private email from another bladeforums buyer (who is on the road) 30 minutes before your reply. If he falls through, I will let you know. Thanks!
