It seems that I have been negligent in making announcements of new models being released lately. My apologies. We have been a bit behind.

I would like to formally annouce that we have the Persistence model in house and it is shipping. SFO has some and dealers are being contacted.

The "Persistence" is a smaller version of the "Tenacious" model. It's made by the same maker.

Blade:
2.75" full flat
8Cr13MoV stainless
13mm opening hole
Spine jimping on spine behind opening hole

Handle:
Walker Linerlock
Black G-10 scales
Dual stainless liners
4 way stainless hourglass clip (no coating)
Screw construction

MSRP:
$49.95

Rock on! What a great price for a full flat ground blade with G10 scales!!!
Looking forward to picking one of these (and a tenacious) up in the near future!

Are there any pictures?

I like the 'sound' of this knife. I think the 2.5-2.75" blade size is an 'in-between' size that is lacking in the current lineup. Bigger than Dragonfly, but smaller than Delica. Like Urban-byrd Crow size: very useful in my opinion.

Sal did say SFO, the Spyderco Factory Outlet, has them. So, even though it's not in the online catalog yet, a call to them might get you one.

Might have to get a couple of these when I see a pic. Mini-military anyone?
