The Steel River Knives T620BT Spartan delivers tactical-grade cutting performance in a compact everyday carry format. This tanto-style blade combines aggressive geometry with practical handling for users who demand reliability in challenging conditions.
What Makes This Different
The T620BT features a distinctive black and silver blade finish that provides both corrosion resistance and reduced glare during tactical operations. The 3.75-inch tanto point geometry concentrates cutting force at the tip, making it exceptionally effective for piercing and precision work compared to traditional drop-point designs. The aluminum-zinc alloy handle construction offers 40% better strength-to-weight ratio than standard aluminum while maintaining the lightweight characteristics essential for extended carry.
Key Features
- 3.75-inch tanto blade with black and silver dual-tone finish for corrosion resistance

Field testing demonstrates consistent performance across temperature ranges from -20°F to 140°F without grip degradation or blade flex. The tanto point geometry maintains edge retention 25% longer than comparable straight-edge designs when cutting through synthetic materials and cordage. Law enforcement and military personnel report reliable performance in both precision tasks and emergency cutting scenarios.
