Spyderco Persistence Satin Plain Edge Black G10 Liner Lock C136GP

Persistence can mean continuing without veering off course or changing function or structure and describes ongoing existence regardless of interference or challenges. It is also a great name for the smaller version of the Spyderco Tenacious. The Persistence has a similar construction with an ergonomically milled G10 handle, skeletonized steel liners and a flat ground, 8Cr13MoV stainless blade. A great, hardworking everyday carry folder, the Persistence will get you through the day without breaking the bank. This version has a satin finished blade and black G10 scales.

Brand new, direct from Spyderco Knives.

Blade: Made from satin finished 8Cr13MoV, the broad, modified leaf shaped blade is delivered in a full flat grind for good slicing performance balanced with durability. There is plenty of point for piercing and fine work and an efficient “all edge” blade design. A 13 mm RoundHole provides easy ambidextrous deployment on a smooth, phosphor bronze washer pivot with excellent action. Safety and control are enhanced thanks to the jimped thumb ramp and ergonomic handle design.

Handle: Skeletonized stainless steel liners support G10 composite scales in a well-designed handle that is comfortable and secure in the hand. An open back design makes cleaning and maintenance a breeze. One of the liners forms the Walker Liner Lock mechanism which delivers smooth, reliable operation and rock solid lock up. A handle cutout and jimping on the liner offers reliable purchase for operating the lock as well as added traction in the grip. A hole is provided for lanyard attachment.

Carries via a 4-position, stainless steel Hourglass clip.

8Cr13MoV: Similar to Japanese AUS-8, 8Cr13MoV is a low carbon, high chromium stainless steel with an excellent balance of toughness and strength. It offers good corrosion resistance and is capable of acquiring a razor sharp edge. Edge holding is similar to 440B. Sharpening should be a breeze.
