From the house of Condor (via their El Salvador factory), the Tribal Roots Knife channels the look and feel of early African tribal blades — but with modern materials for real-world utility. The blade is crafted from 1095 high-carbon steel, offering a good balance between toughness and sharpenability. Its full-tang construction and thick 3mm stock ensure it is built to take on meaningful cutting tasks rather than just sitting pretty.
The handle is walnut wood, complemented by a wooden sheath — giving this a vintage aesthetic while retaining function. The blade comes in a bead-blast satin finish, which helps mask wear and gives a subtle low-shine look.
In terms of size: the blade length is about 22.7 cm and the overall length approximately 36.1 cm. At around 220-250 g, it sits in a comfortable fixed-blade middle ground—not ultra-light, but not unmanageably heavy either.
If you’re into outdoor activities—whether camping, bushcraft tasks, splitting cordage, carving, or other knife-involved chores—the Tribal Roots offers heritage style and solid build. The 1095 steel means you’ll need to maintain it so if you appreciate the ritual of maintenance and the reward of sharpness, this one suits you well. The walnut handle and sheath also give it a more classic look compared to rugged synthetic-handled blades.
