Spartan Blades

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.

The Moros is an excellent choice for field or tactical use. This well-balanced blade is the perfect blend of size and performance. It's light enough to carry around without hassle, yet sturdy enough to handle a range of everyday tasks. The tip profile is flat with a tapered upper edge ensuring excellent cutting with good penetrating force. The full tang and grip of the Moros provide a neutral balance, making it light in the hand. The ergonomic and textured Micarta canvas grip ensures a comfortable and secure grip whether dry or 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.
