I don't understand why they gave Bill one of the smaller knives to hold? :confused: :eek:

Outstanding results for a beautiful blade!

Congratulations on the well-deserved victory!

Congratulations guys. I had no doubts.:lifter

Thank you! It was a great surprise! A lot of tough competitors this year.

No kidding on the competition.
Here are a couple of images by Chuck Pittman of that folder.

Wow that's a very nice looking knife! Well done gents!

I've been super keen on my Benchmade automatic that has been around the globe with me for years. After looking at those photos I'm thinking I might need to try out that Spartan/Harsey folder........looks like a good blade!

Being a leather worker, and a guy who as made a couple of file knives, the aesthetics, symmetry, and proportion are excellent. When the money comes up I will own a Spartan knife!
