Spartan Blades – SB17BKBKKYBK – Phrike – Fixed Blade Knife – CPM Stainless Coated Swedged Drop Point – G10 – Black

The Spartan Blades SB17BKBKKYBK Phrike is a compact fixed blade designed for those who demand a dependable cutting tool that excels in both everyday utility and demanding tactical applications. Named after the Greek goddess of horror, the Phrike embodies strength, resilience, and readiness. While its inspiration comes from mythology, its performance is firmly rooted in modern engineering. With a compact profile, premium materials, and American craftsmanship, this fixed blade is built for users who appreciate reliability whether they’re in the field, on duty, or tackling everyday cutting tasks. Despite its compact size, the Phrike is engineered to deliver impressive cutting performance. The 4.25-inch swedged drop point blade provides an excellent combination of piercing capability, slicing efficiency, and overall strength. Its blade geometry makes it suitable for a wide range of utility tasks, from cutting rope and opening packages to processing materials outdoors. The reinforced point and robust blade stock also make it a dependable backup fixed blade for professionals who require a durable emergency or defensive tool. Crafted from premium CPM-MagnaCut stainless steel, the blade delivers outstanding edge retention, excellent toughness, and exceptional corrosion resistance. Heat treated to approximately 60-61 HRC, MagnaCut has quickly become one of the most sought-after blade steels available, offering an ideal balance of durability and cutting performance without sacrificing resistance to rust and wear. The Black Tungsten DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) finish further enhances corrosion protection while minimizing glare and increasing surface hardness for improved long-term durability. The ergonomic black G10 handle scales provide a secure and confident grip in wet, dry, or gloved conditions. Spartan Blades designed the handle with a slim profile that minimizes bulk while maintaining excellent control and comfort during prolonged use. Aggressive texturing helps ensure positive retention without creating uncomfortable hot spots, making the knife equally comfortable for daily carry or extended field use. A custom-molded black Kydex sheath is included, offering excellent blade retention and multiple mounting options for belt, pack, or gear attachment. The lightweight design allows the Phrike to be carried comfortably throughout the day while remaining readily accessible whenever needed. Proudly manufactured in the USA, this knife reflects Spartan Blades’ commitment to precision machining, premium materials, and uncompromising quality.
