    Absolutely some of the best fit and finish available on a production knife! And in Magnacut steel, what more could you want. Would like to see scales available like your Moros fighter for large hand customers.

    A Great Knife. It has a nice feel with a thick blade, though I would prefer a slightly beefier handle. Nylon sheath is good for ambidextrous use.

    Awesome knife! The fit and finish are second to none. I bought this knife for my nephew when he graduates the Q course and he’s carrying one of your folders now. Keep up the good work!!!

    Fantastic Design & Top Quality

    The Spartan Horkos is one of my favorite knives. It’s only second to my Spartan Harsey Difensa. My Horkos was ordered with a black blade, black Micarta handle, and a black Kydex sheath. The design of the Horkos is excellent. It is well balanced, extremely sharp, and well crafted with no flaws. Be aware that the Kydex sheath will slightly scratch the blade’s black finish after several sheathing cycles. I knew this going into the Kydex sheath option, so it doesn’t bother me at all. The nylon sheath may be gentler, but the Horkos fits so well and tight in the Kydex sheath. That is something I like. It’s also easy to pull it out of its sheath. The sheaths retention is perfect. The knife’s handle is excellent. It fells comfortable in my medium sized hands. The thickness of the blade always grabs my attention. This is one rugged tool. The blade design is fantastic. It is so cool looking, and it makes a grand addition to my knife collection. The blade is extremely useable in every way. From batoning wood, cutting material, prying parts apart, and even digging, it is a great survival tool. As a former military veteran and law enforcement officer, the Horkos would serve you well in a self-defense situation. For the price, I believe it is well worth it. I highly recommend it. I ordered my Horkos directly from Spartan Blades because it was so difficult to find a seller online. The knife and box were packaged well and in excellent condition upon delivery. Spartan Blades rock!

    Another outstanding knife by those who have carried them in war. Great balance and weight. The finish is second to none. A great defense knife should it ever be needed to be used for that purpose. Cannot go wrong feels great in the hand and comes from a truly outstanding company. As a former US Marine and LEO I appreciate Spartan blades There quality and finish are outstanding. PS I did not get paid to write this but did receive my money's worth in buying this model....
