Spartan-KA-BAR – Legendary Tactical Fixed Blade Knife
The Spartan-KA-BAR is a modern evolution of the iconic USMC KA-BAR knife, meticulously crafted by Spartan Blades in collaboration with Pineland Cutlery, Inc. Inspired by the original World War II design, this tactical fixed blade has proven its reliability across decades of military service, from the Marines to special operations units, and remains a favorite among collectors, outdoorsmen, and tactical enthusiasts.
Good weight for a larger knife. Very good grip on the handle. Leather sheath is excellent quality as well as the blade.
This is "by-far" the Best Ka-Bar Money Can Buy. I have purchased several and have no regrets. You will not have any regrets either.

I want to update my thoughts on Spartan Blades after recently working with them, because the experience was nothing short of outstanding. The KA-BAR itself is everything you’d expect from Spartan — tough, reliable, and built with real attention to detail. But what impressed me even more was the way the company handled things when I reached out about a sheath issue. Instead of giving me the runaround or treating it like a hassle, Spartan Blades responded quickly and with genuine professionalism. They made sure the problem was completely resolved, and they went above and beyond to ensure I was satisfied. That kind of response shows a company that doesn’t just stand behind its products, but truly cares about the people who use them. In today’s world, a lot of companies talk about “quality” and “customer service,” but few actually deliver on both. Spartan Blades sets the standard — not only in the craftsmanship of their knives, but in the way they treat their customers. It’s rare to find that combination, and it makes me even more confident in continuing to support them. If you’re considering Spartan Blades, know that you’re not only getting a high-quality knife, but also the peace of mind that the company behind it is committed to excellence in every way

I carry this blade daily I love it a lot and the only problem was the sheath that came with it the kydex the dangler or the thing that is wrapped around your belt that broke for me after a couple weeks of wearing it I made a leather sheath from not amazing leather and it’s alright but I wish got the leather sheath from spartan blades instead of the kydex other than that this KABAR. Is phenomenal I would recommend getting that blade any day especially from spartan the quality and work that went into it is beautiful so thank you
a cut above the rest
Finally a KaBar blade with a highly premium steel built for edge retention and not just toughness. This knife should be in a display case, but that would be disrespectful since it is built to be used. Other KaBar blades I have owned were cheaper steels like D2, and have to be maintained by sharpening and oiling regularly. This one holds its edge like no other KaBar I have owned. The only odd thing is the grip on this one. It has a different grip to it than my leather KaBar grips. You just can't beat the quality of this KaBar Design Knife. It is leaps and bounds above other cheaper blades.
Very nice knife! Bought as a collector item only. Nice modern upgrade.
This is the best-made Ka-Bar. Best ever in fact, at least to this point in History. I believe it to be well-worth the price. I have two and love them both. I'm a little traditional, so I prefer the black blade the best. Nevertheless, I have both. Originally, the name of the knife was "Knife: fighting, utility". And that is and should be the use of this style knife. I can't say enough good about Spartan Blades. I've wanted one for years. I love mine. Buy yourself a couple. You will never regret it.
