Brand new from Condor Tool & Knife.

Blade: At under 3 mm the 1075 carbon steel blade is both durable and effective with a full flat grind and forward weighted design for optimal chopping. The false edge tip provides added versatility with a hole in the blade for levering cuts or keeping your tool off the ground during use. Finished with a black epoxy powder coat the blade is non-reflective and gains some corrosion resistance.

Handle: A simple, thick and durable polypropylene handle wraps the tang of the blade and gives a solid grip thanks to the molded micro-texture. A generous hole is provided for lanyard attachment lending added security.

Carries via a high quality black leather belt sheath.

1075 High Carbon Steel: Simple carbon steel used by both production and custom knife makers. Low abrasive wear due to low carbide content but very tough and easy to sharpen. Good performance with proper heat treatment. Not corrosion resistant and will rust without proper care.
