In Greek mythology, Horkos (or-kos) was the personification of the curse that would befall anyone who broke a sacred oath. The Greeks considered Horkos to be the demon-protector of honor, and honor was everything to the ancient Greeks.
The Spartan Horkos custom combat knife was commissioned by the Combat Weapons Team of the United States Military Academy in West Point, NY, with custom etching to honor their graduating class. As all graduates of West Point are defenders of our freedom and take a sacred oath to protect the U.S. Constitution, we chose Horkos as the name of this formidable combat knife.
The Horkos is designed as an excellent all-around combat and utility knife. It’s intended to see its user through a variety of tough situations, and is crafted with reliability, durability, and functionality in mind.

Ready for...
This is my first Spartan fixed blade but won't be my last. What DLC Magnacut at such a low price WOW! The blade came sharp only needed a quick strop to razor it up. The spear point blade shape is eye catching and purpose built. Will handle anything you can throw at it and balanced to actually throw. The only thing I did do is change to a kydex sheath to better attach to my shoulder rig. Can't say enough good things about EKnives and the great staff. They have all the goodies, maybe too many. Did I just say that? You have a knife day too!
