The Clandestina, a meticulously engineered tactical knife and fixed blade masterpiece born from the collaborative prowess of Spartan Blades and William W. Harsey Jr., driven by their rich history in the Special Operations community. This survival knife, aptly named as a feminine adaptation of "Clandestine," encapsulates an essence of mystery, secrecy, and the covert nature of the missions that inspired its creation.

 

The Clandestina stands as a testament to the legacy of William W. Harsey Jr., whose illustrious career in the world of tactical cutlery is deeply intertwined with influential figures and elite military units. Harsey's collaborative work with Colonel Rex Applegate, a pioneer in close combat and self-defense techniques, laid the foundation for his expertise. The principles developed in collaboration with the likes of Col Rex Applegate, Al Mar, and the Special Operations Community, have left an indelible mark on the Clandestina, ensuring it embodies the essence of practicality and effectiveness as both a tactical and survival knife.

 

William W. Harsey's connection with the U.S. Army Special Forces adds another layer of authenticity to the Clandestina. With firsthand experience in meeting the unique needs of these elite forces, Harsey's insights have been instrumental in crafting a fixed blade knife that goes beyond expectations, catering to the demands of those operating in the most challenging environments.

 

Moreover, Harsey's collaborations with elements of the Canadian Special Operations Forces (SOF) Community underscore the international relevance and adaptability of the Clandestina as a survival knife. The knife is designed not only to meet the rigorous standards of U.S. Special Forces but also resonates with the diverse international military community, reflecting its capability to excel in a variety of operational contexts.

 

In every facet of the Clandestina, Harsey's rich history of collaboration with esteemed figures and elite military units echoes. This blade stands as a living testament to the collective expertise and dedication poured into its creation, ensuring it is not merely a tool but a reliable partner in the hands of those who operate at the forefront of tactical excellence.

 

As a lightweight protective companion, the Clandestina is meticulously engineered to be an inconspicuous yet reliable ally, embodying utility with discretion. Crafted for effortless carry, its design prioritizes portability without compromising functionality, ensuring swift deployment when needed most.

 

The backbone of the Clandestina lies in its quality materials. The blade, a pinnacle of precision, is crafted from top-tier CPM MagnaCut steel, guaranteeing razor-sharp edges, durability, and resilience against corrosion. The ergonomically designed handle, crafted from CE Canvas Micarta® in Black or Camo, ensures a secure grip, reflecting Spartan Blades' commitment to both form and function.

 

The Clandestina transcends the realm of a mere knife; it emerges as a symbol of trust, precision, and collaboration. For those navigating the path of secrecy and precision, this fixed blade tactical and survival knife stands as a dedicated partner, ready to cut through the veils of uncertainty, serving as a testament to the unwavering commitment of its creators.

    Sheath

    Published by Dallas on Aug 23rd 2024

    I tried to delete my previous comment but there was no option for that, so l want to say here in a second comment that l rescind my first post and say that the sheath snaps just needed some working in and now functions just fine. So the nylon sheath is great, the knife is amazing, but l still feel the tip seems a bit too thin, hopefully magnacut is that strong and l won't snap the tip someday. Very expensive knife but l'm happy with my purchase. The blade, grip, and size is like no other knife l own and l've bought a lot of knives. Great knife!

    Sheath

    Published by Dallas on Aug 22nd 2024

    The knife is great as expected but a little concerned with how thin the tip is. My bad review is about the nylon sheath. The snap button does not snap. I cannot get it to snap closed. The two parts don't seem to fit one another. I did get it to snap a couple of times with tremendous effort and pressure and using both hands...but there is no way l can actually wear the sheath and snap it with one hand, if even at all with 2 hands. It doesn't align, you can see it visibly. Thus the sheath is rendered garbage because there is nothing keeping this very expensive knife in its sheath. They obviously don't quality test the sheath before shipping it out. I paid a lot for this knife plus another $75 tax when it got here, and l got a useless sheath.

    This is an excellent blade. This fit and finish are phenomenal. It’s large enough to handle a heavier task and light enough for smaller tasks. I’m looking forward to putting this blade through its paces in the upcoming deer season to see how magnacut performs. My only concern…I’ve only taken the knife in and out of the kydex sheath to paper cut and scratches are starting on the coating.

    Great weight. Handle feels perfect in hand. Magnacut is the best! This entire knife is perfect all around! Would love to see one with serrations in the future. Would recommend to everyone and have.

    The Product: Faultless! It looks like they have given a thorough thought and execution process in the design, finish and manufacturing. This includes the sheath too! The Company: Instant response and shipping process This is my second knife from Spartan, the first one being Difensa (also 5 star)
