Best EDC
This is the best EDC knife I ever owned. It is what I'd call beefy. It really fills the hand well and the Emerson wave on the spine makes for the quickest deploying blade that I know of. And the karambit handle insure that your hand won't slip or be dislodged. The Shoto is worth every penny.

Best EDC Blade
This is my absolute favorite EDC blade. The karambit style ensures a quick and stable draw and you don't have to worry about it slipping out of your hand. Also the tanto blade is a stabbing machine.

Everything works great except
The clip for my pocket broke off because it got snagged on seat belt. Need to replace the clip. Only have had it for a week. Other than that the quality is excellent and the knife works fantastic.

Spartan Ronin
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!!!!

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.
