Spartan Blades Horkos Fixed Knife Green 5.68in Plain FDE Drop Point SB4DEGRKYTN

The Spartan Blades Horkos Green 5.68in Plain FDE Drop Point is built with a clear mission in mind: deliver uncompromising performance in a fixed blade that balances strength, control, and durability. Designed by Curtis Iovito and Mark Carey, Spartan Blades’ founders and lead designers, the Horkos carries a rich design heritage rooted in real-world application. Every detail reflects a focus on reliability and purposeful engineering, making it a trusted choice for demanding environments.

With an overall length of 10.87 inches, the Horkos offers a commanding yet manageable profile that feels substantial without becoming cumbersome. The 5.68-inch drop point blade provides a long, effective cutting edge well suited to hard use, utility work, and controlled slicing. A blade thickness of 0.18 inches reinforces the knife’s rugged character, giving it the backbone needed for tough tasks while maintaining excellent handling.

The blade is crafted from CPM-S45VN stainless steel, a premium steel known for its balance of toughness, corrosion resistance, and edge retention. This steel is designed to perform consistently across a wide range of conditions, making it a dependable option for extended use. Finished with a SpartaCoat PVD Flat Dark Earth coating, the blade gains added protection from the elements while maintaining a low-reflective, professional appearance that enhances visual discretion.

The Horkos’ blade geometry is purpose-built for performance. Its drop point profile features a relieved distal spine and tapered tip, delivering impressive strength at the point without sacrificing versatility. This design supports confident piercing, controlled cutting, and reliable utility work, allowing the knife to transition smoothly between demanding tasks. The grind and geometry work together to provide balance, efficiency, and control with every cut.

Comfort and security continue with the handle, which is made from green CE Canvas Micarta. This material is chosen for its durability and excellent grip characteristics, performing reliably in wet, dry, or adverse conditions. The ergonomic shaping allows the knife to sit naturally in the hand, promoting comfort during extended use and providing confident control when precision matters most.

Weighing approximately 8.86 ounces for the knife alone, the Horkos achieves a well-balanced feel that reinforces its solid construction without unnecessary weight. Carry is handled by a tan Kydex retention sheath with a belt loop, molded for secure hold and fast access. The sheath’s design supports dependable retention and practical carry, keeping the knife ready when it’s needed.

Proudly made in the United States at Spartan Blades’ North Carolina facility, the Horkos Green FDE Drop Point represents American craftsmanship paired with proven materials and thoughtful design. It’s a fixed blade built for those who value strength, purpose, and reliability in their gear.
