Spartan Harsey Folding Knife - Viking Longboat - S45VN

The Spartan Harsey Folder Viking Longboat edition carries a detailed Viking Longboat engraving etched directly into the titanium handle. First released as a 2022 special edition, the longboat motif paired with blued anodized titanium hardware has made this one of the more collected SHF configurations in the series. Bill Harsey designed this platform, and Spartan Blades' founders, retired Green Berets Mark Carey and Curtis Iovito, brought their "Knives with Intent" philosophy to the manufacturing. That combination of Harsey design and Spartan build quality is what won the SHF platform Blade Magazine's American-Made Knife of the Year award.

The 4-inch drop point blade is CPM S45VN stainless steel with a uniform stonewashed finish. The stonewash hides scratches from pocket carry and hard use. S45VN provides strong edge retention and corrosion resistance for daily carry and field use. Dual anodized titanium thumb lugs for ambidextrous opening. Finger grooves on the handle add purchase for precision cuts and heavier tasks. The flat grind profile gives you clean slicing geometry with enough tip strength for piercing work.

The handle is 6AL4V titanium with blued anodized screws, barrel spacers, and pocket clip. The titanium frame lock includes an internal lock bar stabilizer. Phosphor bronze bushings in the pivot keep the action smooth and consistent without the sensitivity of a bearing system. The reversible titanium pocket clip supports left or right-hand carry. Overall length is 9 inches. Weight is 5.9 ounces.
