Description
The Korriphila HSP 701 stands among the most refined semi-automatic pistols ever produced, a model that reflects Edgar Budischowsky’s uncompromising vision of mechanical precision, restrained aesthetics, and absolute quality. Chambered in .45 ACP, this example embodies the HSP 701’s reputation as a true connoisseur’s firearm, engineered not for mass production, but for those who appreciate deliberate craftsmanship.
This pistol features the hallmark slim, angular slide profile, meticulously machined steel construction, and a beautifully balanced frame that gives the HSP 701 its distinctive feel in hand. The deep, uniform black finish contrasts elegantly with the richly figured wooden grip panels, each carefully fitted and contoured to complement the pistol’s clean lines.
Mechanically, the HSP 701 is known for its smooth operation and deliberate trigger feel, prioritizing control and consistency over excess embellishment. Every component reflects careful engineering rather than decoration, resulting in a firearm that feels purposeful, precise, and timeless.
This example is accompanied by its original fitted presentation case, finished in burl wood with leather trim and green felt interior, underscoring the model’s premium positioning from the moment it left the factory. The pistol and its accompanying components are matching, preserving the integrity and completeness collectors expect from a high-grade Korriphila offering.
Rare, understated, and uncompromising, the Korriphila HSP 701 in .45 ACP remains one of the most desirable European pistols of the late 20th century, an essential piece for the advanced collector who values engineering excellence as much as rarity.
