I love Joe Flowers..great guy, great sense of humor. Condor has so many great designs. I just wish they would learn how to sharpen a knife. Every one I've ever seen is not very sharp out of the box. I know how to sharpen, so not a deal breaker, but it's nice to not need to do it before you can even use it for the first time. Anyway, I always look forward to seeing what new stuff they come out with each year, and this year is not disappointing by any means. Great stuff!
@CommonCentsOutdoorsman4 жыл бұрын
Amen! How easy would it be for them to send them out with proper grind and edge. Especially at that new high prices for simple cheap steel. The last 3 or 4 knives I received required major reworking before they would cut which is unacceptable. I'm still waiting for them to announce that they will fix this problem before I buy another. Great designs though!
@timbo43744 жыл бұрын
@@CommonCentsOutdoorsman I know, right? 1075 is their norm, but even 1095 is not hard to sharpen on a belt sander like they use. It especially pisses me off on big blades. I collect Bowie's, but I don't just collect, I also like to take them out and use them. Like I said, I can sharpen fine, but sharpening a 10" blade with a 6" stone is kind of a pia. I don''t use them enough that I need to constantly be sharpening them, but if it's a Condor, like their Plan A Bowie or Atrox..you can bet it'll need to be done before you can use it. Otherwise, if you use it as a heavy chopper like I normally do, better pack an overnight bag cuz you're gonna be there awhile, lol.

@@timbo4374 I actually like the edge that Condor puts on a fixed blade knife. I sharpen my EDC folders to a razor's edge but prefer my outdoor fixed blades to have more of a 'working edge' that doesn't roll or chip as easy. I can still feather and carve as well and don't have to maintain as often in the field. I mild stropping or a light DMT and I'm good to go.
