Great job 👍 I love archeological history❤
Good review and a cool knife, like a hand axe 👍😁💪🏻
Condor make good stuff. Sheaths are always a+, as you said
Good review and an interesting knife. You have honed excellent bushcraft skills. A bit of a masterclass going on there as you used the knife👍
"For someone that wants something more robust than a Mora...". That's like upgrading to an Abrams tank when you want something more robust than a .308 for deer hunting! Haha
Quick tip. Instead of sticking blade in log for feather sticks, try just pressing the stick into the log as you carve downwards. This will help stabilize amd be less tiring even with smaller knives... And of course, more control.
😂😂😂😂
P.S. for small work, I'd suggest the Mini Hudson Bay knife from Condor. Watching you try and make feather sticks with that big blade was some what well, you know what I mean. Oh, and in all the years I've carried my big Hudson Bay knife, its never even come close to falling out of the sheath.

First some history on the Hudson Bay Knife. It originated from a butcher knife design, that was very popular back in the 17 and 1800's. However, during the era of the mountain man, the Hudson Bay Fur Company, designed a knife for the trappers that worked for them. So around 1828ish, the Hudson Bay Knife came into being. It was a general purpose large camp knife/butcher knife for large game. As far as skinning, large game like deer, elk and buffalo, the knife was used. For smaller game and beaver, the trapper would have a smaller and much sharper knife. I've had mine for 5 years now and I've used it primarily to process wood for camp fires. I wont chop with it, that's a waste of energy, but it splits stuff up to 3 inches like a champ. Oh, and when I got the knife I was still hunting, and I've used to to butcher a deer and a antelope. And your right about the sheath, very well made. Enjoy the knife and stay sharp.
i bought one for my younger brother: hunter, fisherman, trapper for the family. He was startled when he opened the box and was almost in shock. told the old man he could skin an entire moose with just that one knife. And did - 600 lbs of moosemeat came off that bad boy.
he uses it in the woods for damn near everything. Condor also makes a shorter blade version nowadays after years and years of people asking. I use one for hiking/camping and am never without tinder sticks, kindling, tent pegs or being able to cut pork butt steaks for the pan.
I have the Mini Hudson Bay knife, and the full sized one. I love them both. Not only are they useful when camping, hunting and or fishing. But, they are also useful in the kitchen, when taking a chicken or such like apart. So keep on keeping on, and stay sharp.@@Scriptorsilentum
I've owned one for about ten years. It's a great design but it lacks proper hardening and tempering. It's way too soft and even when batoning in pine, the edge will bend. Mine will eventually be taken to a kiln and properly quenched. Otherwise, great knife.
I've never had an issue with there knives.
Maybe you got a lemon?
