Condor Burmese Hunter Machete | Kult of Athena | Review and Cut Test

[@jorgefernandez6407]

NICE to see this great machete reviewed!

[@siksika4603]

I really like the Condor machetes myself. Was looking at the Makara. Just can't get myself to spend over $150 on a machete.

[@JohnCarlisle-r1i]

That looks great. I have been enjoying my Knight's Riding Sword I got from you a couple of days ago. I am using it like a machete, lol but it is working well. I haunt the riverside and have been cutting trails through brush with it. I could see the design of this Condor machete would be much better. The leather handle wrap on my knights riding sword was starting to peel today, so I can see the handle of the Condor holding up much better. Yeah that thing almost looks like a wakizashi!

[@comfortablynumb9342]

I have sheaths for my machetes like that but made in Costa Rica. My machetes are from El Salvador but I bought them in Costa Rica too. The shesthes are very nice quality. I like that blade design. It should be handy on a farm or in the woods. I got used to wearing a machete on my hip when I lived in Costa Rica and I learned how handy they are for chopping down weeds or ruining a venomous snake or whatever. But mine were cheap and I'm not afraid of using them. That one in the video costs a lot more. I'd hate to beat it up.

[@GrimDarkHalfOff]

oh this looks like a PERFECT substitute wakazashi !

[@kultofathena6217]

Accurate.

[@VantaClawz]

But 100% different! (Check out the Condor "Yoshimi" Machete though.)

[@movementwithtom]

@@VantaClawzYoshimi handle is much longer than this. Yoshimi feels more like a Dao, Burmese feels like a Wakazashi. There’s a Condor Yoshimi review on our channel 👍🏻

[@bdg77]

Looks like a nice piece! ❤

[@SAS-k7c]

Thank U for the info 👍 the cutting test was realy nice but cause the most people I guess like me (Bushcrafter/Survivalists) would more be interrested If this machete can cut branches small trees etc. without any break outs... A real Machete field testing would bei great... Greetings from Vienna Austria ✌️

[@kultofathena6217]

Thanks for watching!

[@John5.56]

It absolutely will delimb and cut through saplings no problem. The 1075 is used for good reason and condors been using it for ages. Def a good trail blazer for sure.

[@BradtheButcher1234]

I have a hanwei banshee that's very similar......its awesome on blackberry cane's and light brush

[@UnkyJosh420]

Found a Condor Plan A blade at a small town pawn shop downtown for $40. It was around $150 - $175 originally I believe. Cleaned that blade up and it’s my ultimate bushwhacker EDC. Micarta handle with brass pins, full tang, Kukri Bowie hybrid and tough as sht. I may try another Condor out. I need something better for briars and thorns in the Ozarks.

[@kultofathena6217]

They're the best for machetes that I've found. Check the El Salvador Machete or the Australian Army Machete.

[@UnkyJosh420]

@ thanks I will!

[@RAYANDERS-w4t]

THANKS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@davidhughett6081]

Excellent!

[@mattjosh69]

Looks very similar blade to the, you beat me to it 😂😂😂 been going to Thailand to train in Krabi Krabong for 3 months at a time 6 times now. 🇬🇧🙏🏻

[@tray22]

That is a sword. I want one!

[@Canadian_Craftsman]

BROOO thank you I didn't know about this sword or didn't know that I NEEED it hahaha✊️🔥✌️💚

[@Canadian_Craftsman]

Who was your stunt double???😂😂😂

[@norbis3939]

I didn't know James McAvoy was a sword enthusiast.

[@jangoossens8538]

I own one, love it. What do you mean by soaking the 'tommy'? Is that the handle or the complete machete? I can't find a translation for what the tommy of a machete is...

[@TracyPerren-cn3ol]

Tatami.

[@JohnCarlisle-r1i]

That is the rolled mat he is cutting.

[@kultofathena6217]

Soaking the tatami mats fully before you try to cut them.

[@jangoossens8538]

I understand, thanks for the feedback!

[@twodog42024]

Great video!

[@kultofathena6217]

Thanks!

[@bobhope4949]

I can dig that

[@bobhope4949]

Not gona lie, I’ve used a legit civil war musician sword for yard work…….. they ain’t supposed to be sharpened but I sharpened it

[@Atheistbatman]

Check out Condor Trader Dag it’s like a mini gladious. I think it could be more popular I was impressed w mine. It had its purpose but it’ll probably be a table decoration. May not be bad for self defense it would have a hella wound channel

[@kultofathena6217]

Out of stock or I wanted to review it. thank you

[@royseleech3524]

Nice 🎉🎉🎉

[@kultofathena6217]

Thanks!

[@BSBS-gk4iy]

Mandatory for upcoming atomic war and apocalypse!

[@georgemckenzie2525]

Please show the balance point

[@1980Baldeagle]

How would this compare to the cold steel version?

[@kultofathena6217]

I'd choose Condor over Cold Steel. In my experience quality, point of balance, edges are usually superior to CS.

[@SwordTomato]

can you do the windless arbedo?

[@kultofathena6217]

We will see what we can do for sure!

[@patriciajin6206]

Hold on, Dha is actually Burmese swords while Dhab are Thai swords, what's going on?

[@UnkyJosh420]

I don’t like leather with Carbon. Wish it was Kydex.

[@kultofathena6217]

Condor has plenty of kydex options for their other models.

[@1980Baldeagle]

Get a cold steel version. Nylon sheath.

[@bobhope4949]

If it’s over forty bucks I’ll build something better for less

[@seanmurphy1026]

Ok

[@old_timey_prospector]

Your mom did something better for forty bucks.

[@jejoko]

Sure.... After you buy all the forging tools for $2000

[@old_timey_prospector]

@jejoko And spend about 2 to 5 years mastering the basics.
