    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....

    He really likes it. Says it's surprisingly light and fast yet made of super stainless. If he likes it, it must be good.

    Horkos

    Published by Jon on Oct 18th 2022

    Exceptional build, fit and finish. My caution is to those with larger hands. It’s a bit smaller overall than I’d thought but the handle is tiny. In length, scale thickness, width. There’s not much real estate there to get a good grip on it for bigger paws. If it was a 6-6 maybe with thicker scales this knife would be a grail. We’ll see how she holds up. Very high product quality and service.

    Horkos

    Published by Barry on Aug 22nd 2022

    This is a very well made blade, outstanding ergonomics, well made, high quality, however when I received it I couldn’t believe it wasn’t very sharp at all. I have had numerous Benchmade knives and ever one comes razor sharp from factory. I can’t believe Spartan sends out knives that need sharpening right from jump. Very disappointing.
