Ed Schempp, a wheat farmer, metallurgist, and renowned knife maker, created the Persian Folder by blending classic Western elegance with exotic Eastern charm. Traditionally, Persian knives are fixed, but Ed reinterpreted this typical shape in a folding knife.

Characterized by curved and harmonious lines, the Persian Folder 90 mm stands out for its black Micarta scales combined with polished stainless steel guards. The handle features a series of finger choils that allow for a firm grip and total control of the blade. The blade, inspired by the East, has a pronounced belly and an elegant upward-pointing tip.

Made of high-performance VG-10 steel with a concave grind, the blade measures 89 mm and features a prominent “hump” above the opening hole, ideal as a thumb rest. The clip allows for right-side tip-up pocket carry. A milling on the locking mechanism, known as the David Boye Dent, increases safety by preventing accidental unlocking during a firm grip.
