Awesome knife
Love the look and functionality. Fits great in my hand.

Exceptional
This is my first Spartan blade and it did not disappoint. It has a high-quality blade, great balance, and a rugged (yet beautiful) design. The Kydex sheath is form-fitted and makes pulling the knife out quickly a little tough but that was expected after reading the previous comments prior to purchasing. Besides, you wouldn't want the knife to simply fall out of it's sheath. Anyone reading this (especially current/prior military) should be able to respect the idea of 'gear retention'. In addition to the knife, the customer service was amazing. I highly recommend this company and their knives. I will purchase from them again.

another average knife
Nothing exciting about this knife. Knife fits okay in the hand, well balanced. Not razor sharp and not easy to remove from sheath. Note: The knife comes sharp and will cut easily into flesh - Razor Sharp is what razors are and is not what a combat knife should be, otherwise it would dull quickly in the field. Our Kydex is form fitted, so you want to grab the handle of knife in position of function and push your thumb against Kydex sheath to release, should be easier for you and provide best retention. Sorry you were not pleased!

Another awesome knife!
The Ares is my fourth Spartan knife. I don't know what else I can say about their knives! The service is great, the knife, as usual, above and beyond! Spartan Blades are definitely for the more "discerning" knife owner. Everyone who sees any of my Spartans loves them. The EK dagger (and now the Ares) always makes them drool. I plan to get every one of their knives!

I am very highly impressed with the Ares, the best fixed blade I have owned to date. Superior edge, brilliant design. As a warrior I approve.

absolute must have
Was looking for a combat knife for a while but nothing too big and something high quality. This met all my criteria with a style and uniqueness that I have not seen before . I carry it on my vest with pride and a sense of reliability
