Details
Designed by Tu Lam, the Spartan Ronin Shinto is a purpose built fixed blade designed to be a versatile tool for field craft and martial use. Shinto means "The practice of establishing a connection between the ways of the old and the ways of the new" and the Spartan Ronin Shinto blends traditional design elements with modern materials and construction. This version comes with a black DLC coated CPM-S35VN blade, black canvas Micarta handle scales and a black nylon sheath.
Brand new, direct from Spartan Blades.
Blade: The recurve spear point blade has a mid-height saber grind with a tapered top swedge delivering a strong tip for piercing with balanced cutting performance and durability. The black DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) coating leaves a highly wear resistant finish on the S35VN blade that improves corrosion resistance and is discreetly non-reflective. An index choil offers superior control while the forward weighted blade enhances chopping power.
Handle: The full tang extends through two chamfered and machine-textured canvas Micarta handle scales. The handles deliver a comfortable and ergonomic platform for a secure grip with low-profile carry. Deep scallops near the ricasso allow for modified grips. An attached paracord lanyard gives added security during use.
Sheath: Carries via a MOLLE compatible nylon sheath.
CPM S35VN: Designed to offer improved toughness over CPM S30V, S35VN substitutes niobium for vanadium delivering an increase in toughness of about 15-20% with no appreciable loss of wear resistance. Increased toughness means better resistance to edge chipping. Corrosion resistance is on par with S30V.
Tu Lam: Former Green Beret retd., Tu Lam has co-hosted The History Channel's Forged in Fire, “Knife or Death” and worked together with Spartan Blades' founders in the same Special Forces company. Tu is an edged weapons master and practitioner of Filipino martial arts.
