Description

The German Korriphila HSP 701, conceived by the visionary designer Edgar Budischowsky, stands as a pinnacle of firearm engineering. Before this feat, Budischowsky had already left his indelible mark with the compact TP70 .22 and .25 caliber pocket pistols. Yet, the HSP 701 represented an evolutionary leap. It emerged as a full-sized centerfire handgun, primarily tailored for personal defense, embodying an unwavering dedication to unrivaled quality and excellence.

Formally patented in 1979, the Korriphila HSP 701 embarked on its production odyssey in 1984. Each exemplar was painstakingly handcrafted to order, meticulously fashioned one at a time in the sanctum of Heidelberg, Germany. Budischowsky’s mission was clear: to forge the world’s preeminent pistol, synonymous with peerless reliability and pinpoint accuracy. In this relentless pursuit, fiscal considerations paled in comparison.

Unlike arms destined for national militaries or law enforcement agencies, the Korriphila HSP 701 was not a mass-produced commodity. Instead, it emerged in exceedingly limited numbers, with fewer than 30 units crafted annually, each tailored precisely to the discerning preferences of individual patrons. It stood as a testament to artisanal craftsmanship and bespoke luxury in the realm of firearms, epitomizing a fusion of precision engineering and artistic flair.
