    Great fit and finish on knife. Getting to be a Spartan fan boy. Fifth Spartan blade I have purchased. Quality comparable to some of the best custom makers. The Difensa is one of the best all around camp/survival/general purpose fixed blades on the market regardless of price.

    Oozes Quality

    The Difensa has the most ergonomic handle of any knife I've held, and I couldn't find any flaws in the finish or the grind.. The kydex sheath fits the knife perfectly (very snuggly at first). I haven't subjected the knife to any abuse yet, but if the rest of the details are any indication of its durability, I'm more worried about the blade getting bored and leaving me for another man than suffering any damage.
