Horkos
Worth every penny. Everything about this knife and the service from Spartan is impeccable. The pictures do not do justice to how great the handle grip is and the design and sharpness of this knife.

Horkos-Combat/UtilityKnife
Excellent craftsmanship as always with Spartan Blades! I am confident it will withstand a lifetime of abuse just like the other blades I have from them.

I Can't Say Enough Good Things
This blade is my idea of an all around combat blade. Sharp as a razor out of the box, and very solid feeling in the hand. Micarta grips are perfect with their size and grip texture. Honestly, for all you grunts out there, this knife brings the cold steel and sex appeal to you in a sleek package. Keep up the great work Spartan Blades!

Horkos Review
Loved the personal note on the receipt. The knife arrived quickly and was VERY sharp. It has excellent balance, a comfortable handle, that doesn't have any hot spots. The knife is very light. My only criticism: the handles could be a bit thicker. Overall I'm tremendously satisfied with the purchase.

Outstanding Knife!!!
I am VERY happy with my Spartan Horkos (Black on Black). After reading all of the reviews on the forums, I decided to purchase one. The knife and service provided by Spartan is outstanding. I will be recommending them to friends and family.
