Spartan CQB Tool – Close Quarters Battle Companion
Engineered for speed, retention, and lethal efficiency, the Spartan CQB Tool is a purpose-built ring dagger designed for Close Quarters Battle (CQB) and transition work. Compact and slim, it stows easily behind front pouches or magazines on MOLLE/PALS platforms, or on the belt/IWB for rapid access. The included Kydex sheath is contoured to the ring form for lightning-fast draw and re-stow in high-stress environments.
Developed in collaboration with Greg Thompson, founder of H2H/Team ROC, Curtis Iovito, Mark Carey, and a former Special Forces unit at USAJFKSWCS, the CQB Tool is shaped by battlefield experience. This tool is designed as a “transition tool”—a slim, fast-deploying implement intended to break grips, gain control, and quickly return to the primary weapon system. Built from proven materials and treated for battlefield durability, it blends functional design with tactical practicality into a mission-ready package.
Originally made for USSOC's SOC-P Program
The Spartan CQB Tool is a mission-ready close quarters battle companion forged from battlefield insight, engineered for speed, precision, and reliability. Compact, durable, and designed for fast deployment, it is a testament to Spartan Blades’ commitment to excellence.
Love it, on my belt as we speak, it is now part of my EDC
Very good quality
Just received my Spartan CQB Tool and am running it on my battle belt. It is the exact width of my belt and tucks perfectly behind my tourniquet holder for seamless incorporation and quick access. I highly recommend Spartan Blades and the CQB Tool!
This is a product I can trust my life with when it comes to self defense and concealing your personal security, top notch on my utility belt
Got this to compare and support the company that supports vets. Wife saw it and told me why I needed another blade like that since I already have several versions of the SOCP from BM. I told her it was better steel and she gave me the blank "Are you serious" wife look. I then told her it was like upgrading from a Road King to a Street Glide. Then she understood. Love and carry it as my new daily stabby thing.
I can not thank Spartan Blades enough for their impeccable quality. Everything was flawless from order process to delivery. I will be making purchases again without hesitation. Also, thank you to our veterans at Spartan Blades for service to our great nation whom gave themselves selflessly to protect me and all the citizens of this soil. You will always have my support.
i understand that this knife was designed to puncture not slice but i still wish the edge was of a finer grade so as to make cutting more viable with the tool for simple day to day tasks
Outstanding as expected. I sharpened blade another inch down both sides, careful about cutting fingers but more useful blade cutting edge if also used as carry knife. Quick and effective. Fits benchmade sheath also. De Oppresso Liber!
High quality, great service. I wouldn't mind if it was a little longer but great tool.
These are a much nicer version than the Benchmade equivalent. The finish work is superior and the use of 154CM is a huge upgrade. My only quibble is the sheath, which while versatile could have shipped with a clip. All in all like all my other Spartan knives this one is the luxe Cadillac in both form and function.
