Custom Knife Factory Peter Rassenti Persian Integral Titanium M390 Blade
The world renowned Canadian knifemaker Peter Rassenti and Custom Knife Factory had already collaborated on 3 models in the past. The Satori, SNAFU 2.0, Satori 2.0 and SNAFU 3.0. All 4 models were extremely popular and highly sought after by CKF collectors. The Persian folder is the newest collaboration between the two, and one of the most anticipated so far.
The Persian presents one the most intriguing blade shapes with breathtaking hollow ground bevels. The clean and uncluttered design is classic. The mesmerising Zircuti pivot collar and pocket clip add a pleasant pop of colour to the handle.
The handle is integral and made entirely from one piece of solid titanium. This is a complicated and laborious process, requiring higher levels of precision, skill and attention to details. CKF has absolutely knocked it out of the park with the quality and fit & finish.
The Persian style blade is made of M390 and finished in two-tone satin & stonewashed. The blade has a front finger choil as well as very deep and aggressive jimping on the spine. The large external blade stops attached to both sides of the blade are a signature of Peter Rassenti.
As you'd expect from Custom Knife Factory, the action is sharp & snappy on the deployment and silky smooth, drop shut on the closing. The flipper tab is nicely bevelled to prevent any possible hot spots and guarantee a hard firing flip every time.
As always, you will receive more than just the knife from Custom Knife Factory. The Persian comes in a high quality pouch including a microfiber cloth, certificate of authenticity and full set of hardware & screws.
Each knife is individually numbered and the serial number on the knife you will receive may be different to the knife in the listing photos.
