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.

Bud Nealy's MCS II System knives are designed to be compact and lightweight, with a focus on low weight. The MCS System, developed in the 1980s, offers great versatility in carrying thanks to a Kydex sheath that can be adapted with five different attachments (included), allowing nine carrying positions. Ambidextrous use of the system is possible.

The MCS System has been improved with the MCS II, which incorporates 3M Dual Lock attachment systems with five times the adhesion strength of classic Velcro. This version further increases versatility and allows transport positions to be configured more quickly. The system offers options for both on-body and off-body carrying.

Biographical Note:
Bud Nealy is universally recognized as one of the best knifemakers in the world. He is also known as the inventor of the MCS (Multi Concealment Sheath) system that allows the knife to be placed securely in any type of position. And it is because of these two requirements that every day hundreds of his MCS systems are used by police officers, undercover agents, S.W.A.T. and R.A.I.D. members, U.S. embassy guards, Bodyguards and Air Rangers.
