The flagship
The Difensa is THE knife among the fixed from Spartan Blades.
This collaboration of Spartan and knifemaking legend Bill Harsey has it all - externally but also historically.
This collaboration of Spartan and knifemaking legend Bill Harsey has it all - externally but also historically.
The origin of this mighty fixed goes back to a commission from the Canadian Special Forces units.
Spartan Blades were asked to design a knife that would serve this unit both in urban environments and in the deep forests of Canada.
The result is a massive, almost 29 cm long fixed blade that weighs 330 grams and fits securely in the hand. The flat ground blade made of CMP S45VN runs to a nasty point, which thanks to a long swedge looks a little more racy.
To prevent reflections from appearing on the blade, a choice of brown or black PVD coating has been applied.
This type of finish is very thin, but at the same time incredibly abrasion resistant.
Really spectacular is the handle of the Difensa: here you get a fabulously good hand position!
The 3D-milled, screwed Micarta handle scales lie very securely in the hand thanks to the structuring of the surface, so that you do not run the risk of slipping even during harder work in the forest.
So that you do not slide on the blade during a thrust movement with the hand, wasdeder handle designed so that a kind of guard is formed in front of the cutting edge.
The continuous tang provides maximum stability for the entire construction.

So that no misunderstandings arise here: the Spartan Blades Difensa is NOT a practical, compact EDC fixed. Here you get rather the opposite: an ultra-massive, large, tactical-oriented knife that still performs mercilessly even under the most adverse conditions.
The name, by the way, is a good indication of the orientation of this knife.
History nerds take note: "Difensa" refers to the victory of the Canadian Special Forces over the German troops in the Second World War in Italy.
This decisive battle went down in history as the "Battle for Monte la Difensa".
The Difensa comes with an initially very tight ( = secure) Kydex sheath. This is intentional: the knife should sit absolutely tight and secure so that there is no play even over a long period of use. Simply carry and use the knife a few times - the Kydex loosens a little, but still remains tight enough.
