Broken Spartan blade

[J dog]

hi everybody , looking for some help, I have a cold steel Spartan , the blade snapped straight across the eye of the blade, is it possible to get a replacement blade, any info welcome,

 

[Bill Siegle]

What did Cold Steel say when you contacted them? Contacting the manufacturer was your first step correct?

The title had me worried OP broke their Spartan Harsey..

I echo Bill Siegle , what did Cold Steel say when you reached out to them?

 

[Twindog]

I don't know what Cold Steel will do, but the first step on a knife forum is to include a photo of the break and a macro photo of the grain structure of the break, along with a description of the activity that led to the break.

LT answered personally and said "How the f*ck did you do that?" Then he stabbed a cow head while wearing a kimono with Zombies on it.

Welcome.

Are you sure it’s authentic?

Hi there J dog ! And Welcome !

Do you also go by the name Joe X on youtube ?

Assuming your knife was genuine Cold Steel , breaking a Spartan should not be easy in normal use .

Cold Steel might replace the entire knife . Otherwise I don't know of any way to just buy a blade .

You can post a pic (or three) , so we could maybe tell if it's fake or real . You have to use a hosting site like postimages.org .

Also , please tell us where you got it and how it got broken .

I'm pretty sure they've been faking the Spartans for quite awhile now..

Very interested to know Cold Steels response and also how it broke.

Yeah, that is for sure.

I own a spartan for a few years now, it is one of cold steels strongest knives for sure. I chopped, battoned and levered the living shit out of it, can't image a way to break it, even with ultra hard use.

I want one again someday, it's on the list. Especially a non-serrated in SV35. Wouldn't mind an AUS-10 either.

I can't imagine breaking a Spartan blade. Unless it's a fake. This is very unusual

Yea, it's quite a chunk of steel. I used to have an original AUS-8 and that thing was a tank... I know it was real because it was one of the originals long before the fakes started coming out..

There's a place that sells these it's somewhere in the middle. Recently it was on sale for $30. And that was for a signature model. I looked the other day and the prices back up to its normal price range. I was going to buy one but I didn't like a fool. You snooze you lose they say
