This Sprint Run PPT model has been outfitted with solid carbon fiber handle scales and a CPM-S90V blade in a satin finish. The Perrin PPT folder is named in honor of its three designers; Fred Perrin, Philippe Perotti and Sacha Thiel. This knife has a shape and feel that is reminiscent of Perrin designs. Its lock is a crossbreed annexing components of both Michael Walkers LinerLock® and Chris Reeves Reeve Integral Lock. It functions as a frame-lock but a black G-10 scale overlaying the lock makes it appear closer to a LinerLock. The carbon fiber scales are milled with corrugated creases for skid-free and ergonomic handling. Its full-flat ground CPM-S90V steel blade is a modified-Wharncliffe profile with a finger choil and spine jimping and a tapered spine-swedge. Item includes a deep-carry pocket clip and handle lanyard.
