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.
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
I like condor , I have a couple of their products and they are really high quality,
thank you for the opportunity!
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 ;)
"I like danglers..." Do ya now buddy?!
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 😇 🇺🇸
Merry Christmas man thank you for all the great videos you have put out love watching
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.
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
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.
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!
I'm in! Any new condor knife review should suffice. You typically know how to choose nice blades. Look forward to it.
We appreciate all the work you do for things some of us couldn't afford!! The Campsite Ax looks good this year
Sweet fix blade Chris. Love the blade profile on this one. Thanks for the gaw.
Really liking all of the new Condor blades coming out. I'd give this one a good home! Thanks for the GAW.
Learn something new everyday from you Chris, Thank you!
I was waiting for the review on the Selknam. Thank you
I'm in on the GAW, your suggestion are great, I have never owned a Condor, however, I will look at them going forward.
I’m in,, really like the sheath and idea of attaching the striker,looks like a solid knife, great giveaway
Hi Chris, as always, nice review on the Condor. Hope to see more condor knive on your channel soon.
I have had my eye on this one, Thanks Brother for the first impression video. I definitely want one in my collection.
Chris, love to see a review on the new Condor Woodbuster Chopper! And thanks for throwing me in the the GAW!
Great honest review as always. Thanks Chris.
Thanks for the chance at the GAW, Great review. I would like to see the Condor
Pictus Knife.
I've had my eyes on this one Chris. Thanks for doing what you do. God Bless from Texas
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.
I love the design, and that is one of the sweetest factory sheaths I’ve ever seen.
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!
Looks like a good camp knife. I do like Micarta handles. Thanks for all the great videos- I always learn a lot.
I'm in! Thanks for the review and the GAW. I only have one Condor knife, the Moonshiner.
As always Chris good honest review.
Really nice knife and review Chris. I enjoy your take on things, very practical. Take care.
That's good! A review on this was long overdue. Cheers!
I'm in! Thanks for the opportunity Chris. Looks like a nice beefy blade
Great review as always Chris!
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.
Thanks for another great review and GAW!
Count me in!
Thaks for another great review, big condor fan!
Sweet blade and I REALLY like the Terrasaur. Definitely gonna pick one up when they're available.
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.
I love GAW! Thanks for your videos
I'm in love Condors knives and tools!
Awesome GWA Chris ty so much. Very generous as always!
Love that sheath! Thanks for the gaw chance!
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.
Condor's new to me so any reviews are better than none. 👍
I really like the blade profile on this condor and also the sheath is a nice addition.
Chris do not complain about the weather, here in northern Quebec we have 10 feet of snow and by the way very good review 👍
I agree, here is South Dakota it's -17... So at least he's able to be outside in a ball cap and without mittens.
Y'a Right sir ..... especially cold the winter this year .....
salut , chu bin content de pas vivre au quebec presentement,, l hiver a dlair a etre ruff,,cotee neige,, pour le froid , personne s ent sort au canada :P , have a good one buddy !
Ca fait longtemps que j'ai pas vu un hiver de même ..... wind , snow, cold and ferocious !
Tarbanac! Hello from your neighbour in New Brunswick
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.
Carefull with my knive Chris. Thx for the video, GAW are awesome
Thanks for the review. I dont have an issue saying Selknam but then again just call it Condor's BFK (Big freakin knife). I have been awaiting this knife's revw actually so this is very helpful! Cheers!
Good job as always Chris.
I really like the look of that knife. Thank for you videos.
Love the sheath that goes with this beautiful blade. Hope to see more condor review. I am new to condor brand.
Nice review. I actually like a convex grind. Condor for has been producing quality knives that are reasonably priced and present as a good value. I really like the sheath as well. Thanks for the honest feedback you provide.
Love the look and sheath! started making knives myself so I don’t think fixing the edge will be a problem great video
Now that's a knife I would love to have! Condor has really stepped it up lately...love it!
Nice review on condor. I love high tall knive blade.
Great review on another great Condor knife, cannot beat the quality for the price.
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. 🤗
Thanks for the review and opportunity. I'm in!
Hi, thanks for the gaw.
The Condor I'm interseted in seeing is the new Mat Graham knife.
Thank you,
Alain
Any of your recommendation will be nice! You are my go to review guy when I am open to buy a fix blade.
Great review as usual :) thanks for the contest! Would like to see a review of the toki, desert/swamp romper or nessmuk
Another great vid Chris! That Condor would look great in my collection. 👍 Would like to see a review of the Condor Pictus Knife
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.
Thanks for the opportunity Chris and SMNK! I would like to see the new seax reviewed. It looks pretty cool.
Count me in! Very cool sheath design. I like the finish on the knife
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
I should definitely win this knife because I'm 66 I've never won anything and I'm running out of time, do some smaller condors, something more bushcrafty .Peace out & WABEN 3♧
Great review, Chris. I like the knife for heavy stuff. I seem to be more interested lately in EDC and that little compact kephart.
I'd like to the Ripper from Condor. It looks pretty interesting. Thanks for the opportunity Chris!
Looks very interesting!! I’d love to give one a shot
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.
I'm in! Thanks for the opportunity Chris!
I’m in. Appears to be a decent multi-use knife. Thanks for the review and GAW.
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.
No worries on the grind I will put a 20° edge on WSKO Blade Grinder and problem solved. Another good video Chris thanks.
Condor is really stepping up their game, nice blade!
I want it! Thanks for all the awesome videos Chris!
Love this condor blade! I think it will serve well as a camp knive.
Thanks for sharing Chris
Nice knife, nice case also. I could really use that. Thanks for showing Chris.
Thanks chris for the chance to win. Great knife cant wait to try it out in the field
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.
Love those GAW's thanks Chris let the one you got be the one I get.
Over all I like it for a hard working tasks but I totally agree with your impression of this knife on feather sticks 👊👏
I like the looks of that Condor! But yeah I agree with Chris i can tell it needs a thinner geometry on the edge other than that I would love to own it. Great review as always Chris👍
Again thank you for the great knife review and have to agree with you about training yourself with every knife because not all knives are the same
Thanks . I appreciate the win !!
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
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
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.
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!
I’m in, I like the two different options for fire making
I like the new arrow heads. I use them often when Bush crafting skills slash playing around
Looks to be very robust and I've been looking for a knife like this. So I'm in thanks Chris!
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
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!!!💪🏼🔥🤘🏼🔥
I picked up a condor low drag a couple months ago. Fantastic large camp knife/survival knife/light chopper for the money. I personally removed the clear coating they put on it to resist corrosion and made forced patina. Great handle ergos and tough as nails
