Mr. Tanner just would like to thank you personally for your channel its content and what it has done to change my life . Back in 2008 I was a industrial painter and I loved my job , but on October 4th of 2008 everything changed when a load of metal elevator doors tipped over on me I tried to stop them but the weight was to much and it slammed over on me and I woke up on the ground in a pile of metal. I was in the hospital for a week . Well just over 10 years and 3 surgeries later I've gotten 12 fusions 2 bars 1 plate and about 40 screws in my neck down to in between my shoulder blades . I used to play sports and I was in martial arts but that all changed . I felt useless and I didn't know what to do , but in 2015 I found your channel and I got the " sickness " and started getting starter pocket knives .Then in October 2018 came and I got a little blade called JX5 The Vengeful One ! Then a miracle happened in December and SMKW found a cache of the last ever produced Jessica X's and I snapped up one for me and one for my brother , I felt like I won the lottery . I now am in the process of saving for JX4 Bushbat . I now get outside and have passion in my life once again . I don't know if I should thank you or ask you where I can get counciling cause this is getting serious , when I shop for knives I get sweaty thats how bad I got it ! But seriously thanks for PM 101 and all your knives , in my life it really made a difference so Thank You.

[@zioazalin]

I like condor , I have a couple of their products and they are really high quality, thank you for the opportunity!

[@cjemhardt]

Chris, love to see a review on the new Condor Woodbuster Chopper! And thanks for throwing me in the the GAW!

[@Lyralope]

Thanks for the chance at the GAW, Great review. I would like to see the Condor Pictus Knife.

[@hervue85]

I'm in! Any new condor knife review should suffice. You typically know how to choose nice blades. Look forward to it.

[@neckredgringo5372]

I like that blade, and the entire package is well thought out. This is the one that I was wondering about out of shot show. Wouldn't have know about the grind from seeing images. Thanks for the continuous content and giving people the opportunity to win some blades. Great work Chris

[@carmemwickman5594]

Had my eye on this knife for some time now and been waiting for someone to finally do a review of it, I definitely think it has solid potential and you always do a great thorough review

[@u5fb]

Hi Chris, as always, nice review on the Condor. Hope to see more condor knive on your channel soon.

[@TBOR101]

Hats off to SMKW and yourself for showcasing this knife, I would glady accept the challenge of seeing what I could do with hand sharpening this blade. Yes it's been very rainy here in the Buckeye State, something like 20 days it hasnt rained since Christmas.

[@limpehuhlui]

Sweet fix blade Chris. Love the blade profile on this one. Thanks for the gaw.

[@joshuaritzheimer1382]

Thanks for the opportunity Chris and SMNK! I would like to see the new seax reviewed. It looks pretty cool.

[@robertlopez7303]

I'm in on the GAW, your suggestion are great, I have never owned a Condor, however, I will look at them going forward.

[@14ederan]

The Selknam is the one new Condor knife I wanted to see your review on, but also the Terrasaur. Thanks for doing a GAW on this one!

[@harrybachmann9815]

Really liking all of the new Condor blades coming out. I'd give this one a good home! Thanks for the GAW.

[@dwaynepichon1295]

Merry Christmas man thank you for all the great videos you have put out love watching

[@erocent]

I'm in! Thanks for the opportunity Chris. Looks like a nice beefy blade

[@MrSIXGUNZ]

Your sooooo real to this day and that's refreshing. I really like the depth of the blade. It gives me the feeling it's bullet proof and would last forever. Thanks much for your hard work and dedication. Blessings to you and your family 😇 🇺🇸

[@sonik382]

Thanks for the review Chris...I am a subscriber of yours since the very beginning but never left a comment...I really appreciate what you do showing us all of those products. Condor is actually improving a lot their lineup, but they still have issues with convex grinds...I had an HD Kukri and sold it because it has a really bad convex on it. This knife looks amazing to me... really a beauty. Nice job Condor, keep listening to the customers and just sharpen those beauties a bit more!

[@spunkkat1721]

We appreciate all the work you do for things some of us couldn't afford!! The Campsite Ax looks good this year

[@MashBill]

I'm in! Thanks for the review and the GAW. I only have one Condor knife, the Moonshiner.

[@edwarddykstra1131]

I love the design, and that is one of the sweetest factory sheaths I’ve ever seen.

[@viking1545]

I have had my eye on this one, Thanks Brother for the first impression video. I definitely want one in my collection.

[@scottbrossman2086]

I'd like to the Ripper from Condor. It looks pretty interesting. Thanks for the opportunity Chris!

[@jamesmcgowan9293]

Your review is spot on for this knife. I bought one in December and had to regrind the blade to thin out the edge . My sheath was also stiff and felt dry, so I treated it with mink oil and it came out great. After those tweaks I'm really happy with this knife .Cheers from snowy and cold Ontario ;)

[@newenglandoutdoors3759]

I was waiting for the review on the Selknam. Thank you

[@donmorse5536]

Looks like a good camp knife. I do like Micarta handles. Thanks for all the great videos- I always learn a lot.

[@jonesey65244]

I just got a Condor Hudson Bay last week. Like it. This monster you just reviewed looks pretty nice. I especially like the multipurpose sheath. Thanks for all your efforts in bringing us reviews. Appreciate it.

[@freddiejess]

Thanks chris for the chance to win. Great knife cant wait to try it out in the field

[@SupermanPeacock]

Really nice knife and review Chris. I enjoy your take on things, very practical. Take care.

[@brettlincoln8664]

Sweet blade and I REALLY like the Terrasaur. Definitely gonna pick one up when they're available.

[@rvcruzn3870]

Another great vid Chris! That Condor would look great in my collection. 👍 Would like to see a review of the Condor Pictus Knife

[@Scupper7]

I'm in! Thanks for the opportunity Chris!

[@Yiannis2112]

That's good! A review on this was long overdue. Cheers!

[@gravitykillz924]

Love that sheath! Thanks for the gaw chance!

[@davidrogers182]

I like your transparent, honest reviews Chris! Looks like a great knife and the price is friendly. Would be nice to have. Thanks for great review.

[@T37912]

Hi, thanks for the gaw. The Condor I'm interseted in seeing is the new Mat Graham knife. Thank you, Alain

[@mickbator6979]

Awesome GWA Chris ty so much. Very generous as always!

[@pacediver2594]

I’m in,, really like the sheath and idea of attaching the striker,looks like a solid knife, great giveaway

[@HercsHepster]

Thanks for another great review and GAW! Count me in!

[@machodeth4822]

Fell in love with the design when I first saw it. Would love a chance at it. For the new condor stuff the SBK knife looks pretty rad. keep up the great work Brother.

[@tac8]

I really like the blade profile on this condor and also the sheath is a nice addition.

[@joshualee1]

Thanks for the review and opportunity. I'm in!

[@mikefloresflotexknives7945]

I've had my eyes on this one Chris. Thanks for doing what you do. God Bless from Texas

[@keithwhite2098]

Love the sheath that goes with this beautiful blade. Hope to see more condor review. I am new to condor brand.

[@richardskinner4198]

I am too far away to worry about the give away but thanks for the review .The edge I can fix with little effort so I am going to buy one of these I have had my eye on it for a while and this review just made up my mind for me .I have several Condor blades and have been very happy with all of them so far.I look forward to more of your reviews.

[@glennhager4678]

Great review, Chris. I like the knife for heavy stuff. I seem to be more interested lately in EDC and that little compact kephart.

[@scotthill6807]

Condor is stepping up their game. I don't mind 1075 at all, I just carry a small ceramic rod for sharpening. Very nice sheath. Thanks for the review and GAW.

[@SoCalGary77]

Great honest review as always. Thanks Chris.

[@omnislash21]

Great review as usual :) thanks for the contest! Would like to see a review of the toki, desert/swamp romper or nessmuk

[@chevyx7947]

Love those GAW's thanks Chris let the one you got be the one I get.

[@dwstrange334]

I was looking forward to the Selknam being reviewed, so thanks for that! This year, I'd love to see either the Pictus or the Blackout Axe reviewed.

[@watchmy689]

Learn something new everyday from you Chris, Thank you!

[@kkunkel8]

Enjoyed the review, I've been researching a mid length knife for a while and this seems like a good candidate for an all round blade. Thanks for the review.

[@tomweingart2337]

Good advice on what to do with the blade but I think I'd leave it alone! Would like to see more larger knife reviews! Thanks for the opportunity for the giveaway, and I'm in! 😁😁

[@joesjourney9986]

Count me in! Very cool sheath design. I like the finish on the knife

[@survivalofthefittest409]

Your channel is actually the first ive seen of that knife. I dont own a Condor, but that is actually one im actually pretty excited about! Its got *alot* of features i like, one being that pommel. I *hate* spike pommels, and *love* hammer pommels like that. The design overall i dig, but i would thin out the edge, i could see exactly what you were talking about, too thick/too steep, so i'd have to fix that out...but 1095 loves to be tweaked. Very cool GAW, count me in and thanks! As far as other Condor knives. I am kinda interested in seeing those "Terasour" knives up against some Mora's, sense they are obviously very similar, and seeing what is the better option (within objective standards). Anywho, good stuff man.

[@321654987510]

that sheath looks awesome. I'm super keen to see the one that looks a lot like the Garberg

[@weirdounknown7323]

Didn't got to see everything new by Condor but the Vipera and a few other machetes and choppers really got me interested this year

[@ignisbushcraft]

Nice review and GAW. I’d enjoy seeing the Condor Terrassaur reviewed. More specifically I think a condor Terrassaur and a Mora Garberg comparison would be interesting.

[@Karantu14]

I love the handle on that knife! I have a Worksharp that I purchased 4 years ago so fixing the edge shouldn't be a problem

[@duanelarson2560]

Excellent review!... You've sold me. I own two Condors (upon your recommendation) and the Selk-nam would fit right in between them and my $20 Jess X. I'm sure I could 'tweak' the edge up to acceptable slicing sharpness! Would like to see an a review on the new Compact Kephart. Thanks, Chris!

[@prufr0k]

The Selknam is right up my alley. I’m in. Thanks for reviewing it. There aren’t too many reviews out there for it that I could find. Also, I think it would be interesting for you to take a look at the Cavelore.

[@johnhertzog5824]

Awesome sheath.it looks like it could handle most anything. Condor does seem to be bringing out a lot of decent knives.Thanks again for all you do and the giveaway.And I do have the ken onion so this would be great

[@silversponge4259]

Love the knife and the sheath!! I'm in for the GAW. I would love to see the terrasaur reviewed by you!

[@Timothy_Jones]

Always love the knife reviews!!!!! I’d also love see a review of the new Condor SBK (very interested in buying one) and your take on the Turok!!!💪🏼🔥🤘🏼🔥

[@bradl45]

Condor is ALWAYS moving forward!! I gone through 8 Bushlores over the last 2 years (Huuuuge bang for the buck knife), I buy them used(but are like new) off the forums for $30 ish. Then I'm camping or fishing and a kid of our family is running around without a knife(boy or girl), so I give them a Bushlore(I don't ask the parents, lol)!!!!!!!!!!!! I get to teach them sharpening too!!! I dig the handle, looks like Micarta. I still have my Huron(sweet blade too.) I'll be looking for a used(but new Selknam) starting NOW. Big thank you for the vid!!!! I just found a used(but new) LT Wright Genesis A2 for just over $100(A2 no longer the hotness like 3v), so my budget is wrarped until summer, but I'm still searching for more used Condor's. I don't have a worksharp, but see one in my future, a mini tool that thinks it's huge.

[@iantan9264]

Any of your recommendation will be nice! You are my go to review guy when I am open to buy a fix blade.

[@marknickel1776]

I love GAW! Thanks for your videos

[@justinmoss1524]

The Kimen and Pangui would be my top choices for future reviews. Looking forward to moding the Selknam!

[@maxl9368]

I'm in love Condors knives and tools!

[@rswarre]

After your review of the mini bushlore. I set mine up as a neck knife. Use that thing daily now!

[@sailorripley4095]

Carefull with my knive Chris. Thx for the video, GAW are awesome

[@JAB671]

I don't have enough Condor knives. Would love to add another! No Worksharp but if the edge needs tweaking I can do that on my stones. Thanks to you and SMKW for the GAW. Good luck to everyone but especially to me.

[@johnnyra2437]

Now that's a knife I would love to have! Condor has really stepped it up lately...love it!

[@fredb.3618]

I’m in. Appears to be a decent multi-use knife. Thanks for the review and GAW.

[@ronaldrose7593]

Hello Chris that's a great knife at a good price. Thank you for sharing. I sincerely appreciate your great reviews and field testing. Take care out there and see you on the next one. 🤗

[@christopherdunn9013]

"I like danglers..." Do ya now buddy?!

[@GrumpyGrunt]

I'd love the chance to wear that thing out. I don't have a Condor knife yet and I looked at this one and the Toki, but never picked up either. Thanks for reviewing one for us.

[@wneiderman]

Great review on another great Condor knife, cannot beat the quality for the price.

[@GRDray]

Nice knife, nice case also. I could really use that. Thanks for showing Chris.

[@ThePointz13]

Nice stout blade . I would lie to see the pictus knife if you get the chance ! Chris. Thanks for the opportunity!

[@Tobarah44]

Condor is doing great stuff this year. Going to pick up the large huron to go with the smaller one I got.

[@boogieman007edc2]

I really like the look of that knife. Thank for you videos.

[@jinx3675]

Love the look and sheath! started making knives myself so I don’t think fixing the edge will be a problem great video

[@charlesbender9083]

As always Chris good honest review.

[@artisanblades]

Nice review on condor. I love high tall knive blade.

[@wrjames38]

I like the look of the metal finish of the Condor! Would love to see a 3/16 with a FFG...thanks for the video and GAW.

[@camerontracy8241]

Condor is really stepping up their game, nice blade!

[@knifeguy831]

Interesting knife I don't own any condor knives but have seen a lot of the knives and tools you promote, and I'm also addicted to this channel I tell all my friends about preparedmind101, I own all the rat models and the wowtac a1s/bss flashlight just got the foxnelli solar panel and carry them in my vanquest mobius slinger and javelin 3.0 also have all the anker battery products thank you for all you do harleybayo

[@patina_turner6791]

Looks very interesting!! I’d love to give one a shot

[@xankulsilverkin2116]

Great review Chris. Sure could use that knife. My last good knife was libarated from my truck and haven't been able to afford to replace it due to low funds. Thank you.

[@rodneynichols1878]

Thaks for another great review, big condor fan!

[@PhatNutz]

Condor's new to me so any reviews are better than none. 👍

[@nevillesavage2012]

Good review. I like the sheath sheath pacakge.I'm digging the Large Huron knife and the Terrasaur from Condor this year. Probably will get both :)

[@Sharky762]

My 1st impression of your review of the knife. Looks pretty good. I've got several Condors (I use my Hudson bay as BBQ knife). They tend to be a bit hard to get over here in Holland but I'm sure I'll manage to get this one. Unless I win the GAW ofcourse. Take care

[@robertreeser9626]

That's a sweet knife. Would love to have it. Thanks for the GAW...

[@Transamchamp]

Great review as always Chris!

[@daniels.1504]

Good job as always Chris.

[@cncgooch]

Awesome give away, really like the Matt Graham primitive design

[@mrgapface]

I want it! Thanks for all the awesome videos Chris!
