    Another ps.

    Posted by Ed795 on Aug 17th 2023

    I liked this blade so much I bought another one a week later. It is one of the most well thought out knives I have ever owned. I don't use any other blades but Spartan and have been a loyal Spartan customer for 10 years. I know I said this before, but anything cheaper than a Spartan blade is inferior and anything more expensive is unnecessary. If you stay with the Spartan line of knives, you will never go wrong.

    Lethal Beauty

    First, this is the most substantial folder I think I've ever held. Beefy is a good way to describe it. The knife itself is all business and for the untutored like me there will be a learning curve in mastering the draw technique. I would suggest an online training segment but with practice it will eventually be fine. If you're looking for concealment in a defensive blade then this one is a very strong choice. It is a very high quality blade from form to function. And you can't beat the. Price.

    Posted by Ryan from Marietta GA on Nov 24th 2022

    I absolutely love this knife. The way it opens straight from your pocket is the coolest thing ever. This will be my carry all the time and I’m not sure I’ll ever look for anything different. Awesome work Spartan!

    Awesome Blade

    Posted by Brett B. on Jul 26th 2022

    The Shoto is exactly what I've been looking for in a folding karambit style blade. Solid build, flawless deployment of the blade with the Emerson Wave, and it's shaving sharp out of the box.
