The Moros is an excellent choice for field use or tactical applications. This well-balanced blade is the perfect blend of size and performance. Light enough to carry without discomfort but sturdy enough to tackle various daily tasks. The tip profile is flat with a tapered upper edge, ensuring excellent cutting performance with good penetration strength. The full tang and handle of the Moros provide a neutral balance, making it light in hand. The ergonomic and textured Micarta canvas handle offers a comfortable and secure grip, both dry and wet.

After over 40 years of service in the US Army Special Forces, Curtis Iovito and Mark Carey founded Spartan Blades LLC in North Carolina.

The TALOS Folder is a lightweight folding knife with a liner lock, designed by our friend and collaborator William W. Harsey Jr. Its slim and lightweight design makes it the perfect companion for everyday carry and daily tasks. Despite its small size, thanks to its thoughtful design, high-quality CTS-XHP blade, and deep pocket clip, it handles most daily tasks with ease. Whether you're wading through a trout-rich stream or on your way to work, this little knife is ideal.

All our Bronze (Field) grade folding knives incorporate our new "Oil Infused Bronze Bearing System" or "OIBBS". Our sintered bronze bearings are oil-infused, thus reducing friction on the blade, giving you a tight but smooth blade opening. This system is particularly useful for slow speeds, intermittent use, and irregular loads like those found on folding knives.

The POROS flipper was designed by Curtis Iovito as a robust and large-sized flipper. The high grind lines of this blade, combined with a sharp and penetrating tip, make it a reliable companion for everyday carry.

Its quick flipper action is assisted by IKBS bearings for that "Snap" you're looking for! Its distinctive scallops are not only beautiful to look at but also ensure a secure grip. The deep pocket clip maintains a low profile while keeping your blade ready for use when needed. The blade is made of 154CM stainless steel with a black titanium nitride coating; the SS hardware and liner have a black electroplated powder coating.

The ASTOR is our first folding knife in collaboration with prolific knife maker Les George, winner of Blade Show 2021 as "Imported Knife of the Year."

The ASTOR was built as a sturdy working knife! With its sturdy G-10 grips, thick liner-lock and high-strength CTS-XHP steel blade, the ASTOR is the perfect knife for those jobs that require a little extra toughness.

All of our Bronze Field Grade productions incorporate our new "Oil Infused Bronze Bushing System" or "OIBBS"! Our sintered bronze bushings are impregnated with oil, which reduces friction on the blade, thus ensuring that the blade opens smoothly, even when firmly held. This system is especially useful for low speeds, intermittent use and irregular loads such as those found on folding knives.

Notes: Design by William Harsey

Produced in Olean, NY, in collaboration with the skilled people at KA-BAR knives, the design of the Spartan-Harsey Nessmuk is based on a classic American concept popularized by George Washington Sears (1821-1890) and the more moderate ergonomic designs of William W. Harsey Jr.

Under the guidance of a Native American from the Narragansett tribe named Nessmuk, George Washington Sears embraced the natural world, learning survival skills. Sears adopted "Nessmuk," meaning "wood duck," as his pseudonym, reflecting his love for forest life. Writing as "Nessmuk," he contributed to Forest and Stream magazine in the 1880s, promoting canoeing, the Adirondack lakes, and environmentalism.

Sears' diverse experiences led to his writings on the wonders of nature and conservation. He advocated minimalism: lighting fires, setting up tents, and more. He emphasized respect for nature, leading to a call for conservation.

Sears authored "Woodcraft" (1884), offering practical advice and introspection. The "Log of the Bucktail" series and poetry followed. Illness couldn't weaken his love for nature. He passed away in 1890, with Nessmuk's legacy enduring in Wellsboro.

A supporter of thin and sharp knives, Sears' ideals are reflected in our Nessmuk design.

Produced in Olean, NY, in collaboration with the skilled people at KA-BAR knives, the Spartan-Harsey Kukri knife has been designed to be a highly durable hiking knife. The kukri features a blade of over 22cm, making it an all-around tool due to its center of mass, allowing the user to slice while cutting to even penetrate thick objects.

While this blade is primarily famous for its military use, the kukri is more commonly employed as a multi-purpose tool in fields and homes across Nepal. Its uses range from construction, clearing, cutting firewood, digging, butchering animals for food, slicing meat and vegetables, skinning animals, to opening cans.

It can function as a smaller knife using the narrower part of the blade closer to the handle. The heavier and wider end of the blade, towards the tip, functions as a hatchet or a small shovel.

The Harsey TT (Tactical Trout) is designed to be a very comfortable and sturdy medium-sized knife for most field tasks and defensive use. The size of the TT makes it easy to carry and handle.

The blade profile provides a clean cut with excellent tip strength. The full tang and handle of the Harsey TT provide neutral balance in the user's hand. The ergonomically shaped, linen Micarta handle provides a comfortable and secure grip when dry or wet. The pommel has a lanyard hole in the center of the angled tip. The TT is an excellent universal fixed blade, well balanced in size, function and feel. In our opinion, one of William Harsey's best designs.
