Why Choose the Spartan Drop Point?

Upgraded 440C steel: High-carbon stainless provides excellent edge retention, reliable corrosion resistance, and easy field sharpening with common stones.
Two-tone protection: The black/silver finish adds style, reduces glare, and helps hide day-to-day wear.
Confidence in hand: The 5.5" alloy handle fills the palm for leverage and control while its shaping minimizes hot spots during extended use.
EDC-friendly footprint: Compact enough for pocket or pouch carry yet stout enough for the shop, jobsite, and outdoor kits.

Performance You’ll Notice

Controlled tip work: The drop point’s centered tip excels at notching, scoring, and light pierce tasks without feeling fragile.
Everyday durability: Stainless blade and coated finish resist sweat and humidity; alloy scales shrug off knocks and dings.
Reduced fatigue: Balanced weight distribution supports long sessions of repetitive cutting.
Ideal Use Cases
Everyday carry (EDC): Open packages, trim cordage, slice tape and zip ties.
Workshop & jobsite: Score drywall (with proper mats), cut carpet backing, hose, and plastic banding (wear PPE).
Outdoor & camp: Food packaging, tinder prep, tent line adjustment, and general utility.
Vehicle & emergency kits: Reliable backup blade for glove boxes, tool rolls, and go-bags.
Get the Most from Your Spartan
Keep it sharp: Touch up with ceramic or diamond stones; maintain consistent angles along the belly and toward the tip.
Wipe & protect: After use, wipe the blade dry; apply a thin film of oil for long-term storage or humid climates.
Check hardware: Periodically snug handle/clip screws (if included); use thread locker sparingly if desired.
Use responsibly: Avoid prying and screwdriver tasks to preserve edge integrity and tip strength.
