The Spartan Blades Ronin Shinto is a purpose-driven fixed blade born from the expertise of Green Beret Tu Lam, co-host of The History Channel’s Forged in Fire. Designed with combat readiness and field performance in mind, it features a 5.62" recurve blade crafted from premium S45VN stainless steel. This high-performance steel is known for its exceptional edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness, making it ideal for heavy use in demanding environments. The blade is finished in a sleek black PVD coating, reducing glare while adding a layer of protection against wear. The recurve profile provides enhanced slicing power and controlled cutting, giving the Ronin Shinto a lethal balance of utility and precision.
Its full tang construction delivers maximum strength, while the textured black Canvas Micarta handle scales ensure a rock-solid grip in wet, dry, or gloved conditions. Stainless steel Torx hardware keeps everything locked down tight, and a lanyard hole with an attached cord lanyard adds versatility for quick access and secure retention. At 10.5" overall and weighing 8.92 ounces, it has the heft for serious work while remaining agile in hand.
The Ronin Shinto comes with a black Kydex sheath for dependable carry and rapid deployment. Every detail of this knife speaks to the rigorous standards of Spartan Blades, with a focus on delivering elite-grade tools for professionals, adventurers, and collectors alike. Proudly made in the USA, it’s built to handle whatever mission you put in front of it.
