Description: Half Face Blades was born from a life lived outdoors—and refined through decades of service at the tip of the spear. Founded by Andrew Arrabito, Half Face Blades creates purpose-built knives, axes, and tools designed to perform when failure is not an option. Whether used in the field, the wilderness, the kitchen, or everyday life, each piece is made with reliability, intention, and respect for the craft.
Arrabito grew up hunting, fishing, and exploring the rugged landscapes of Northern California. After high school, he joined the U.S. Navy and went on to serve with SEAL Teams, where real-world operations and deployments overseas reinforced a hard truth: a blade must do far more than look good—it must work every time. That experience shaped the foundation of Half Face Blades and continues to guide every design decision.
At Half Face Blades, tools are engineered from end-use backward. Steel selection, heat treatment, blade geometry, thickness, and grind angles are all calculated based on how the tool will be used—whether for tactical applications, hunting and animal processing, camp and survival tasks, or daily utility. Nothing is added without purpose and nothing is built to be disposable.
Every Half Face Blades product is made in the United States, reflecting a deep commitment to American manufacturing, veteran-driven craftsmanship, and taking care of the people behind the work. Many designs incorporate rare or personally meaningful materials, creating a deeper connection between the user and the tool. These are not knives made for display—they are tools meant to be carried, relied upon, and passed down.
Integrity is as important as performance. Half Face Blades believes gear should earn its place in your hands, and that craftsmanship means honoring those who serve, those who build, and those who depend on their tools. A portion of sales supports charities and foundations that give back to the military and veteran community, reinforcing a mission grounded in service beyond the shop.
In a world saturated with mass-produced, short-lived gear, Half Face Blades stands apart by building tools with soul, discipline, and longevity. Each blade carries the weight of experience, the responsibility of trust, and the belief that purpose—when paired with precision—creates something that lasts.
The Cardiac Spike is the perfect backup tool regardless of serving overseas or just needing a concealed carry while walking the city streets at night.
The Cardiac Spike is ground from A2 tool steel. A2 is extremely tough and resistant to breakage, making this a perfect hard-use tool. Black G-10 handle scales provide a comfortable, ambidextrous grip. A lanyard can be added to the back of the handle for extra retention in hand.
To keep the spike close at hand, a Kydex sheath is included. An Ulti-Clip allows the knife to be easily worn on the belt, in the pocket, or concealed carry in the waistband.
Made in the USA.
