Condor Tool & Knife Norse Dragon Fixed Blade Knife with Leather Sheath - 1905 High Carbon Steel - Burnt American Hickory Handle - 3.8 in Blade - 2.8 oz

This knife looks really cool! I bought it as a gift for a family member and he absolutely loves it. It has a rustic feel to it, almost like it was handmade. It is very sharp and durable and arrived in a timely manner. I did a lot of research trying to find a cool “Viking” knife, and this was the only knife I could find like it.However, when it came in the mail, the blade was a little dirty. It had some crusty stuff on it. I tried to clean it all off, but it wouldn’t all come off. Also, the little strap that is attached to the sheath is flimsy and not made well. It was bent and I couldn’t figure out how to attach it to the sheath and attach it to a pair of pants at the same time. While the sheath itself and knife looked just like the picture, the little strap that attached to the sheath was just tied on clumsily and it did not come with the little silver hook that is shown in the picture, which was disappointing.

OK.. I like this knife and have been using it as my EDC since I got it. Stays sharp, and is thick enough for harder tasks, such as chipping ice out of my chickens water dispenser. Only thing is the sheath. The incises diagrams tend to come out if there is any wear. You can still make out the dragon, but it lost a lot of pieces of the design. Same for the runes on the sheath. To me, that isn't a real show stopper. The knife works and maintains a good edge. The handle is decently sized and the burned image is clear and crisp. I actually like this as much, if not a little more, than my Helle Viking. They are about the same thickness, but the blade profile and handle on this one is much more comfortable and usable. I can see this being on my belt for years to come.

This knife broke the first day I used it. It snapped and inside was rust which means the steel had a crack in it already. Bad Quality Control save your money. Condor was emailed and has not responded and their phone number in Florida on the website is a Non-Working knife.

It’s sharp enough to cut through paper but not as sharp as other knifes that I own. Good point on the tip and nice handle. What I like the most is the sheath. It’s a tight fit and hangs at the perfect level so the knife doesn’t rub up against my skin. Also useful to make sparks from my Ferro rod. Very cool knife that I keep on me at all times.

Put this in a wilderness survival kit for a Christmas gift. It is well loved already. Only complaints so far are that there's almost no bolster to keep your hand from slipping onto the blade.

This appears to be a mass produced knife, the blade is a very rough quality and poor grind. The handle lacks polish and the design is burned in possibly by a laser etch, it is very uneven. The sheath is etched in a similar manner and no better quality. Even after several coats of Hubbard's Shoe Grease the leather sheath is still thirsty and cracking. I would only purchase this knife again for $5-$10.

Nice sheath knife itself razor sharp. Cool knife all and all

Good steel, okay sheath. This is not a true full tang. There is a definite difference. This is a stick tang that runs through the handle the full length.The grind was perfect on mine.Not going to use the sheath as it has a thin dangler attachment that would not hold up to swift jerking. It will be fine after modifications. Will update as necessary.
