That’s a cool combo of materials, the half tangs always look pretty sweet but that stands out nicely.
 
Always liked the Jade scales... They get dirty quick but looking good. I exchanged mine on the PM2 tanto with a spare black l had but always wanted a knife w clean Jade scales.
Yours lok very nice, congrats !
Thank you my friend I’m beyond happy with it in all areas. I agree Jade does get dirty easily but it won’t see much hard work and when I do Carry it at work I normally take my work gloves off when I have a lighter colored scale knife so my paws are clean lol.
 
“I do not stop when tired, I stop when done”

I recently acquired a second Spartan Harsey with the runes and staves. The first example I own is the Plague Doctor edition that is more or less a safe queen. I love the design - it is for me the perfect love child of a CRK and to a degree a Hinderer. It does admittedly feel a bit adulterous for me having had a CRK in my pocket mainly for the past year or so. However as the two founders of Spartan were actually tutored by Mr Reeve himself; it stands to reason that a great many similarities exist - and dare I say improvements are to be found.

The quote at the beginning of my post is actually inscribed in Icelandic on the inside of the show scale - you can maybe make it out in the last pic below.

I have committed to carrying this knife for the next year, exclusively. This has been a bit of a trying year for me - mostly work related; and without waxing too poetic; I’m tired. Anything can “cut” but to me this is a fine example of cutlery and I will be reminded to never stop and never quit on a daily basis. I greatly look forward to putting it though the paces, I have little doubt it will prove itself a worthy companion.
