I have wanted the Spartan Harsey Dagger since the moment I saw it, the perfect symmetry, the 6" S35VN double edged blade the contoured handle the pedigree. All this beauty from Spartan Blades needs is a leather sheath. Been looking to up my fixed blade game and this is just what the doctor ordered.

I have no rational need for one of these and yet I still feel like I really really need one 😅
I’m the same way . Daggers just catch my attention every time. Especially ones this nice.
Amen😂
Same opinion. Well, that I need/want one.
The most beautiful dagger design I’ve seen! Thanks for the great review!
My pleasure! I agree about this design. This is something I possess for the pure appreciation of its design, like a painting on a wall.
Brother, that is one outstanding piece of history and metal!!! Congrats on a fine score!!
Wow!! That’s one outstanding! Amazing looking dagger!! Glad to see you able to purchase it. Don’t ever let that go!!
This is awesome!
The tree is from pine land, which is southern pines North Carolina where the knives are made. I live 45min from them!
Everyone needs a knife of that type , if not two.
That is the "Spirit of the Land" kinda blade you got rite there Knife Junkie.
Love it
NICE KNIFE
She's a beaut! In the past, my only reservation about this style was the round or almost round handle and indexing of the edge. However this is an amazing piece!!! 👍🗡️👍
Why would you need to "index" a dagger like this? the edges are not very sharp as they need to be durable for its one and only purpose of piercing attacks.
@@Alex-yg5uh There's more to the story for those who train with them. Simply put, a flat handle tells you where the edge is for cuts, without looking at the blade. A side benefit of that is that thrusts between ribs work better in a horizontal plane, just like native American hunting broadheads.
I've been lusting after the Harsey dagger as well as the V14 Les George dagger. No idea which I'll end up purchasing first, but I wouldn't be surprised if I end up with both at some point. And a Difensa. Harsey's eye and designs are amazing.
I have a small Les George Galvo dagger. I’ve carried it for quite a while as a neck knife. They are a mid tech knife with a 3 7/8” blade.
Which one is better? The Spartan Harsey Dagger or the Spartan-George V14 Combat Dagger? Thanks.
A lot like the dagger in your
ICON photo with the heart.
How does the jimping on the hilt, right beside the guard of the blade feel when gripped firmly? Is it too aggressive or is it very comfortable?
It’s hard to tell from only viewing and not feeling.
I would appreciate a timely answer because I plan to buy the blade soon. Thanks.
hi bob mr flamion here,have you seen the newer spartan-harsey dagger?i do not care for the hilt on the newer ones .also look up the acta non verba dagger and also i like the hinderer-ek daggers in .01 and 3v.these knives plus randall m2s in 7 and 8 inch are awsome to own
Can definitely see the inspiration, A fancy 1st pattern Fairbairn Sykes is very much on my grail knife list, have a 2nd Pattern on the way to satisfy the urge for now, unfortunately the 1st pattern is no longer made in my home town, and the 3rd patterns they produce have poor reviews.
I'd love to see any of you FS Daggers! It is such a perfect design and classic knife.
Joseph Rogers of Sheffield England, they are a former supplier to the British armed forces (they may still be but I'm not sure) and make a good first pattern.
Ooohhh yess 🎶🎶👍🏻🎶🎶Nice one 💋
How much does it cost?
had the taipan in 3v sent it back , very uneven grinds.
You got good taste in knives bro. With the Gerber... I recommend going out and buying some rust stop paint for like, mailboxes and shit. Won't be permanent like a powder coat but will be Very good if you let it dry for a week or so. It stops the rust and you can paint it right onto the rust. Don't need to do anything else. Just paint the whole thing and then drag the blade over cardboard to remove the paint while it's wet to leave only the edge exposed. Trust me it works well if you let it dry for at least a week.
Thanks for the great advice Peter, I think I will try that!
Bob, that's an amazing purchase ! I need it and want it, the FDE version is definitely on my next knife purchase list with the Boker Applegate 4.5, also designed by the man.
Regarding the FS dagger. The UK 🇬🇧 was on the bones of our arse. Anything to shave off a bit of money ! All it needed to do was fit in between a Germans ribs. Didn’t need to be pretty or cool, just effective. Its not without its faults but it is now iconic.
And even though it didn't need to look cool, it still is probable the prettiest dagger out there, the very definition thereof!
Hey brother, I recently bought the Harsey dagger with the non black blade. It has almost the same blade profile as my Dirac Delta which makes them present nicely when side by side. Thanks for producing the knife porn for me!!!
hey my friend , i would love to buy this particular dagger. i've been looking at a few. the anv m500 double edges are as dull as a spoon. are the spartan harsey edges sharp please ? kind regards.
Yes, they are sharp and the bevels are hollow ground
It’s so funny how all the basic and simple knife designs have the prices jacked up on them so high, but the market is being flooded by obtuse and funky shaped cheaper knives. It’s almost as if good design is scamming customers, because the knife shapes can easily be made by cheaper materials, yet we are all forced to buy the name brand if we want that shape, so it’s always interesting to see the market scam of knife design in all the online website knife outlets.
Have you checked ACTA NON VERBA M500 KAMBA.
You will like it.
How will you rate the sharpness of this dagger? I mean aside from the point, the edges on a lot of daggers (even expensive ones) are just for show and cannot cut.
This is pretty sharp if a little oblique. The hollow grind helps, but the blade is not that broad, so in order to maintain thrusting rigidity it's still a little thicker behind the edge than a slicer.
@@TheKnifeJunkie Thanks for the info. Will be saving up for one. Btw, speaking of the CS Tai Pan, definitely get one, I like them so much I have two. Just got the latest version in satin 3V. Happy collecting.
Yes the edges on mine bought new were pretty much not sharp at all. Unable to slice paper out of the box. I guess it is what it is for daggers.
@@davec3651 Try a Boker Applegate boot dagger. Sharp as hell.
But how well does it baton? Asking for a friend 🤣
Sure... a friend. LOL
When you say your Spartan dagger have high prise for how much cost you talking about?
$400-500 usd for the nice ones
whoaaaaaaaaaaaa
Where does a person by one?
I think they come and go in and out of stock. But I would go right to Spartan Blades website. If there is nothing, call them. I have heard some folks have had good results doing that with them.
I should have gotten this instead of the heretic nephilim
How is it what are it's cons? Aside from sheath, I may buy the jade handled one
Are you still being made?
I think they do runs of these, but not continuous production. Though I have heard that if you call Spartan, they may be able to accommodate you on certain "unavailable" models.
The tree logo is on the v-14 too so your theory is wrong,. I had this blade but ended up selling it and getting a V-14 which imo is a superior dagger in almost every way.
Why do you say this? Its about half an inch longer and 3 ounces heavier and has a blood groove...what else?
@@adamkoltun4436 As you mention its longer, has a better balance, the handle is superior for different dagger grips and it just feels better in the hand overall. Not saying this is a bad dagger just that the V-14 is better imo.
@@Alex-yg5uh Roger that, thanks for the response. Check out my reply about the Pine tree logo.
Opposite for me, I had a Les George made V14 and returned it and got the Harsey, mostly due to a severely wonky grind on the V14, the central ridge was way off centre
Who added the low thumb ? Wtf really. Anyway plz the the only down thumb showed should be because how limited these are
Not a dagger guy. That one mixes past and present very well.
To me "Fantastic design, yet poor execution" is synonymous the Gerber Brand. I learned to detest 420 & 440 steels because of Gerber. Whatever their proprietary, mystery steel is, well, I don't like that either.
Over £300.00 in UK, £60.00 in VAT. To much.
I hear you, it was not exactly a rational purchase on my part!
I personally would love to see a 50/47 , one side serrated to 47 percent along with other side standard!.
If this had micarta handles I'd be all over it.
The handles ARE micarta : - )
