Cold Steel Spartan Folding Knife

Legendary Strength. Kukri-Inspired Performance.

Designed by renowned custom knifemaker Andrew Demko, the Cold Steel Spartan has earned its reputation as one of the company's most iconic folding knives. Combining the cutting power of the legendary Kukri with modern materials and Cold Steel's industry-leading engineering, the Spartan is built for those who demand exceptional strength, reliability and performance.

Its 4.5-inch blade is precision crafted from Japanese AUS-10A stainless steel, delivering outstanding edge retention, corrosion resistance and toughness. Inspired by the distinctive sweeping profile of the Kukri, the blade features a broad cutting belly and recurved geometry that excels at slicing, carving and demanding utility work while maintaining excellent control.

The Spartan's distinctive Kopis-inspired handle is moulded from exceptionally durable Griv-Ex™, reinforced with heat-treated steel liners for outstanding structural strength. Deep ergonomic contours provide a secure, comfortable grip, allowing confident handling during prolonged use in a wide variety of conditions.

For rapid deployment, the knife incorporates Andrew Demko's patented Thumb Plate, allowing smooth ambidextrous one-handed opening. The innovative design can also engage the edge of a pocket during the draw, enabling extremely fast blade deployment while remaining intuitive to operate.

Security is provided by Cold Steel's legendary Tri-Ad® Lock, widely recognised as one of the strongest locking mechanisms available on a folding knife. Engineered to withstand repeated heavy use, shock and wear, it securely locks the blade in place, providing exceptional confidence during demanding cutting tasks.

Combining premium materials, innovative engineering and one of Cold Steel's most recognisable designs, the Spartan is an outstanding addition to any collection and a dependable companion for outdoor activities and general utility use.
