I just got home from Smokey Mtn. Knife Works and a Condor Bushlore followed me home. It seems to be a very well done knife for only 25 bucks. Has a pretty nice sheath also. Time will tell but I think I'm going to really enjoy this little blade. Anyone else got one that they have used in the field?
 
Your right. It's not really a small blade but it handles like a smaller blade in the hand. How do I post pics on this board?
 
Just load them on a free photo hosting website like PhotoBucket. Then take the bottom link (in the set of four links) and copy and paste it into a reply.

Cool, you live in East TN? Where are the Condors @SMKW? They sound really cool.

They are where the axes are on the wall. First counter on the right as you come in the door and up the steps. There are also cold steel tomahawks and woodsmans pals there. The Condor knives are in the floor behind the counter. Just ask for them, they will hook you up. At these prices, I almost bought them all.:D Yes, I live in Jefferson City.
 
I like the profile of the Bushlore, but it's too thick for me. I'd love it in a full flat grind like the Rodan, though.
 
It was originally designed like the British version but next year. There will be a 1/8 version next year.
 
Op get to practice Typing on the new droid. Condor is.carried at smkw but they sometimes sell.out that counter quick. I have some stuff if they run out.
 
Playing with new phone, sorry for the choppy replies.

An excuse to buy another one! :)

The picture on SMKW had a lefthanded sheath, which I understand from searching, that some early ones accidentally came that way. Being a southpaw, I kinda hoped I'd get one, but didn't.

Great knife all around anyway, solid worker!:thumbup:
 
I have had mine for a little while now. Beefy knife for sure. I have had a tuff time using it as a bushcraft knife. It is thicker than anything else I have for bushcrafting. I have twice now used the old dremel tool tool try and make it a little more bushcraft friendly. Next step is to have someone with some know how regrind and reduce the angle.
 
I tryed making fuss sticks with this knife. I determined it wasn't sharp enough, so got out the stones. I have never sharpened a knife this thick before. I'm having a tough time with it right now. It seems to not have any real bevel to the edge. Am I correct in this assumption?
