There are so many exciting knife designs coming out this year, especially with the increased use of MagnaCut, but also just in the designs overall.

Great vid. Really glad to see Spartan expanding their Kabar collabs - much more affordable for us mere mortals. I have a Damysus which I use as a duty fixed blade - it's worked hard and survived the past couple of years. The special editions are as incredible as ever and finally a fighting knife in Magnacut - now that's a chunk of premium grade steel right there. Glad we got a look-in as now I can start saving as I expect that fighting knife ain't going to be cheap!! Sharp blades all.

Great knives coming out for Spartan again this year. The new editions of the Harsey folders look awesome!

"Can you really call yourself a combat knife company if you're not putting them in the hands of soldiers at a price point they can afford?" So well said, and I'm glad Spartan decided to take this approach, and remove some of the elitism that exists in the knife marking world.

Lucky you. I wonder how much the Harsey Fighter and Nessmuk models are. If the pricey Harsey Difensa model (in CPM45VN) is 445$, the budget version of that, the Harsey Fighter (in 1095) should be a lot less. Did he mention the price?

@@gaberoo9099 No I didn’t hear any mention of the price on those. I gather that they are being made by Ka-Bar, so I’m assuming hopefully that they’ll be comparable to similarly constructed Ka-Bar knives but maybe just a bit more?

That KaBar Prototype MagnaCut is the what we have been waiting for..!! How do we obtain that Legend.? Curtis from Spartan Blades really lay down the goodness in blade making. We trust DCA to bring that prototype into Knife Center when it's done.

Wish the new fixed blades came in smaller versions as well around 3 inch blades for edc would be amazing will be getting them either way !

That new dagger at that price point should be a home run. A new generation Gerber Mark II.

The Da Vinci SHF is awesome!

Great Products I Want 4 Knives from that List 🔥💪🏻👍💯

The folder's are so nice

Not normally a tac-fighter knife guy but that pinebar looks like an awesome beater knife. Handle looks amazing

That first Kabar collaboration is NICE!

That Magnacut Ka-Bar might be my next purchase.

I love that pinebar!

Looking forward to some of those designs

I’m getting like 3 of those kbar usmc knives 🔪

That personal dining set is clever. I might get one for my steak loving wife.

Very cool stuff!

I have no use for it, but that cutlery set looks awesome!

Omg the Spartan / Kabar Nessmuk is excellent looking. Wow 🤯

No info on when we can order the Kabar or when it's coming out, price point, anything?

Magnacut Kabar Mk2?!!!?!! When?! Also, been wondering what happened to the "Pinebar", any word on when they will be available?

Where can I get one I can't find these guys love the collab

Cost for the SHfolders? Will there be Damasteel option?

I love the Kabar knife but always wished that they would have made a more premium version of it, hopefully the tang is stronger too, I hope I can afford it now. Please explain its tang design if possible! Thanks

When is this MagnaCut Mark 2 going to be ready ????????

Sweet!!!

But when are the left handed shf folders coming????

Looks like a Gerber Air Ranger

My next K-Bar

On the K-bar in magnacut the but plate should be printed with any saying backward so when the soldiers hit someone they can read the message.

Magnacut 'Kabar'... OMG. Gotta have one.

Love those kabar Spartans not sure witch one I'll grab but I'm a sucker for clip point

Probably the non boring stuff is tht fork and knife.. i feel tht they can make it a little fancier or camping stuff.. asideof tht.. Dude at spartan.. why do t you take harpy or tht zt les george with liner lock and you make it frame lock.. i think works well with spartan blade

Great stuff, saving up for a plague doctor as we speak!

They need to leave the K-bar uncoated I would buy it.

I was hoping for some existing Spartan designs at more affordable prices, but I guess I'll keep dreaming and work harder at not being so poor.

The kabar in magnacut steel...i can only imagine how much that would cost....wow

Oh that dagger is gonna be mine

Spartan Ness...wow

🤙🏼 no spoon in the kit?

I’m not very hopeful about the new Spartans. I purchased a 3.25, and I LOVE the design, but mine came through with SEVERAL DEFECTS. One is that the detent ball runs in a track, which on my knife was VERY ROUGH. These knives are supposed to be among the smoothest ever. Mine was the ROUGHEST EVER! When dropping the blade, which didn’t drop easily, it felt like GRINDING in the pivot. Furthermore, the filler plate for the clip on the opposite side did not lay flat, because of a large burr on the underlying screw hole. Not a biggie (I can fix it myself), but unacceptable on a $450 knife! Both issues would have been easily detected, IF they had been inspected! It appears that this one wasn’t. The grinding cannot be repaired easily (it will need a new blade), so I had to return it. More than one significant defect on a $450 knife is a TRAVESTY. I had plans to pick up one of the large Spartan-Harsey knives, also, but now, I probably will NOT be buying another Spartan product any time soon… THEY have a quality control problem.

Did these fighter and nesmuk drop? Not on the site that I could see and the gentleman said "next week" 12 days ago.
