The 2016 "Overall American Made Knife of the Year" award-winning Spartan Harsey Folder is now one of the foremost tactical frame lock folders chosen by operators and EDC-ers alike. This standard version features a Black PVD coated S45VN blade and handle. This collaborative effort features Bill Harsey's signature styling combined with premium materials and Spartan's precision fit & finish. Mid-large in size, the folder is very comfortable in-hand and ready for hard use.

***Updated with new oversized pivot screws on both sides—the back doubling as a lockbar stabilizer***

Brand new, directly from Spartan Blades.

Blade: A classic, utilitarian drop point blade is made from CPM-S45VN with a top swedge and high saber grind for balanced performance and durability. Black PVD finished for a stealthy look that will hide everyday wear, look cool and provide non-reflective use. Riding on reliable bronze washers the blade deploys fast and smooth via dual titanium thumb studs. Aggressive jimping on the thumb ramp offers added traction and a point for indexing.

Handle: Ergonomic handles have been constructed from thick, black PVD 6AL4V titanium for hiding wear over time. Titanium barrel spacers, hardware and oversize pivot bring the two pieces together. The back titanium slab forms an integral frame lock mechanism for reliable lock-up in hard use conditions with oversized pivot lockbar stabilizer.

Carries via a reversible titanium Spartan Arrow pocket clip.

CPM-S45VN: An evolution in Crucible's S30-series, S45VN shows improved edge retention and corrosion resistance relative to S35VN and offers an upgrade to Elmax with better hardness, corrosion resistance, toughness, and sharpness with similar edge retention.
