Spyderco Persistence C136gp Plain Edge Knife In Stock
Looking for a good value in an everyday carry knife? This is it.
The Spyderco Persistence is an outstanding entry-level choice for those who are looking for a sturdy, dependable pocket knife. The 8Cr13MoV blade (a decent Chinese stainless steel tempered at the Rc56 to Rc58 range) retains a good edge and resists corrosion well. The full flat grind makes this knife a good slicer. Be careful, it comes scary sharp right out of the box. The G-10 handle, as well as the jimping along the spine and lock liner, provide a good grip and tactile feedback to the user. It also has a sturdy pocket clip that does not interfere with the user's grip (in my opinion). The clip can be moved for four different carry styles (left/right hand, tip up/down). Fit and finish are good, especially considering it's one of their lowest price (and overseas manufactured) models. But then you would expect nothing less from Spyderco.
The Persistence is only a slightly smaller version of the Spyderco Tenacious model but just as wicked. The primary difference between the Persistence and it's older sibling is in size and weight.
Tenacious:
7 3/4" - length overall
4 7/16" - length closed
3 3/8" - blade length
4 oz. - weight
Persistence:
6 13/16" - length overall
4 1/8" - length closed
2 3/4" - blade length
3.3 oz. - weight
The difference may not look like much on paper but it is significant in your hand. I'm a big fan of the Tenacious but find myself carrying the Persistence more often simply because of size. Much will depend on what your needs are and what you are used to. For those who have only carried their grandfather's pocket knife even the Persistence will seem large at first. But more than likely you'll love the feel of it in your hand.
For the money the Persistence is an outstanding value from a quality knife maker.
2011 UPDATE: Spyderco has now added two new members to this series of knives. For those needing something larger than the Tenacious there is the Spyderco Resilience. The smallest of the group is the Spyderco Ambitious. All four knives in the series have the same features mentioned in this review (i.e. 8Cr13MoV, jimping, liner lock, moveable clip, etc). All are a good value.
