Condor Bushlore Fixed Blade 18

Perfect service from this company. The knife arrived within 24 hours of ordering. The knife itself is razor sharp straight from the box. It feels well made and solid. But not too heavy. The handle is good quality and nicely shaped for my hand. The knife feels well balanced when I hold it and I feel quite confident of it's construction and build quality. I've used it a few times for splitting wood for feather sticks and my wood stove and it went through the wood with ease and made a straight split. I am more than happy to recommend it. The sheath is very well made and robust too. No issues at all, or regrets about buying it.

This Knife feels good in hand, the weight & balance is very good. The grip is very comfortable with even a larger hand there is plenty of room for all your digits. Bargain! HH awesome costumer service, as always

My brother bought this for me about four years ago and I still grin every time I use it . The knife sings when cutting wood and it glides through meat and fish . Definitely not the most expensive and you need to do some work looking after it but well worth the effort and time.

A good, no nonsense product, which seems typical of the Condors I now own. Takes, and keeps a good edge, just beware that it is a carbon steel, so moisture can be an enemy. To my way of thinking, the Condors seem to fill the middle ground between some excellent "budget" knives, I'm specifically thinking Mora here, and the more expensive flavours. At the risk of giving my age away, they remind me very much of "Eastern block" engineering, perhaps not the prettiest around, but really feeling massively "over engineered" and inspiring confidence when put to hard work - same applies to the very substantial sheath too. Service from HH is the standard which I judge all others by now, and most are found wanting !

Great knife, came shaving sharp! no quality faults. Amazing knife for the price! Mine came with a perfect scandi grind!

I purchased this knife a while ago, as a spur of the moment purchase as I could see these going up in price exponentially. My initial thoughts were that this is the perfect knife, however like many have stated the 1075 steel rusts very readily. Like most I realised this when I pulled the knife out of its sheath and found that the hair shaving edge was dulled by rust. So like most again, I resharpened the edge to remove the pitting, and I have again a very unusable lovely knife. I used vasoline on the inside of the sheath to prevent any further rusting. That aside there is something magical about this knife, it performs beautifully and if you want to strike a fire rod, I advise put in a 90° angle on the back of the spine, as out-of-the-box it will not strike a rod. Unlike some of my blades, this one I feel more inclined to picking up and taking out for a hard days use, for that alone it is worth the money. Recommended, if you can afford, but remember that this knife is not the bargain it once was, so think about the other types of bushcraft knives which are available, before you take plunge on this one. As for the distributor, I can recommend only Heinnie for their precognitive service(they know I want to purchase a knife before I do!!!) and their exceptional after sales service.

This knife reallt impressed for the price its strong and light holds a great edge and has quite a chunky handle which i personally prefer. The only thing preventing this from getting 5 stars is the sheath as with most knives there is no left handed option. Come on manufacturers start recognising the lefties.

Absolute quality bushcrfating blade, as long as you know what your getting there wont be any problems, its high carbon so will rust so keep dry and oiled (olive is best imo) keeping knife in a damp envirnment without oiled is asking for trouble. Its best to know and repsect and learn about your tools first before using them its not the tools fault it cant look after istelf. A* blade and service from HH

Excellent knife and Sheath, a bigger handle than you might think, will fit a large hand very comfortably. Speedy delivery and well packaged
