Spartan - Harsey Knife Project

All,

We asked Bill and he graciously accepted to make a collaboration knife together of Bill's degign. Here is a peek of the knife - initially a limited to a run of 250 each. We prep the blades and make handles, Bill hand grinds the main and top bevels - a true collaboration.

Let us know your thoughts,
Mark

I saw this amazing knife at the SHOT Show, and ACTUALLY got to see the prototype BEFORE Bill! It has a great weight and balance and is truly a work of art!

GREAT job to all three of you involved!!!

A great knife, well balanced, perfect weight.

I'd certainly be proud to carry one in harms way.

What is the price point on the knife, or is it too early to tell?

Great looking knife, I'm currently running the Enyo as my EDC and was looking for a new knife to purchase. It was a toss up between a Horkos or a Reeve/Harsey Pacific. This combines the best of both worlds. Any chance of a serrated version?

Thanks for making such a great product!

Not sure if you meant this on purpose, but Spartan Blades and this phrase would make a great combination.

Every once in a while, the "synapse" actually fires when it is supposed to ... this was one of those times! One of these amazing blades WILL be going to the greatest Spartan and warrior I know! And he WILL put it to good use!!!

molon labe!!!

Nice colaboration. Distinct elements of both maker's styles blended into a cohesive whole. How come nobody showed me?

That is a beautiful knife, that anyone should be proud to own.

very nice blade, looks handy and I like the shape.

I love the reeve/harsey green beret knife I have from Bill, this spartan would be a nice addition.

molon labe here too.
