    Spartan Ronin

    Posted by About time on Mar 27th 2024

    I've wanted this blade for awhile, it's my 2nd Spartan blade and I love it, solid blade, good quality, very comfortable in the hand. The issue I have with it, I think the blade could've been a little sharper. Besides that great Knife!!!!

    Amazing design and construction. Waiting for my cqb tool and enyo to add to my new collection. Never knew about spartan blades until I came across one of Tu Lam’s videos.

    Great little Karambit

    Feels very sturdy, great EDC knife, only could have been a little sharper out the box but that can be fixed, still a 5/5 for me.

    Mega Ultra Nice!

    Posted by Mtn. Matty on Dec 10th 2023

    I ordered this knife as a gift for a friend. It arrived quickly and it was nicer than I expected. The handle is thick and sturdy. I like the large and wide ring. The blade is nicely finished and robust. I ordered another one for myself after playing with it for a couple of minutes.

    Imitation

    I see that Emerson just came out with a CQB-7 (I believe that's correct)Tanto/karambit design. While I'm sure it's a very fine blade, Tu Lam and Spartan thought it up first. Imitation IS the sincerest form of flattery.

Unlock the pinnacle of tactical excellence with the Spartan-Ronin Shōtō, a collaborative masterpiece by Spartan Blades and Tu Lam, the esteemed owner of Ronin Tactics and a former U.S. Army Special Forces operator. Imbued with Tu Lam's martial arts expertise, this folding karambit liner lock folder is purpose-built for self-defense and martial applications.

The Shōtō boasts a 2.5" premium CTS-XHP tanto blade, featuring an "Emerson Wave" for swift one-handed deployment, and a reversible pocket clip for left-hand carry. The distinctive black and red G-10 scales provide a secure grip, ensuring precision in every move. Tu Lam's influence is evident in the thoughtful design, making the Shōtō an ideal companion for those who demand both style and functionality.

Embracing innovation, the Shōtō incorporates the "Oil Infused Bronze Bushing System" (OIBBS) for a smooth and reliable blade opening. Whether you are a martial arts enthusiast, a seasoned practitioner, or simply someone seeking a dependable everyday carry, the Spartan-Ronin Shōtō stands as a testament to the collaboration between Spartan Blades and Tu Lam.
