Can someone tell me if the Condor Rodan and the Condor Kumunga both have full width tangs? I want to know whether I can beat on them the same as my Becker BK2 and my Becker BK9. Thanks.

Pic thanks to Joe.

You won't have any problems. And if you do, Condor will take care of you ;)
 
Exactly what I wanted to know. And with photo's. Doesn't get much better than that. Thanks.

Wouldn't the Varan be closer to the BK9?

Nope! The Kumunga would be the closest comparison but even it is in a lighter weight class thanks to the full flat grind. Very good knives all of them, and I personally own the Rodan and Kumunga. The Rodan/Varan/Kumunga series often get compared to the Becker line...but they really aren't even remotely the same.
 
2 of my favorite knives are condor. I have a Boomslang and a Parang, and i beat the ever-loving Sh*t out of them.... they are still razor sharp and i haven't managed to ding or bend them yet

I don't know if the steel is quite as tough as my BK7, but i have never seen anything at all to indicate that it's not

Hacking through trees for 4 hours then batoning a huge pile of wood just to see if i could, and i still didn't manage to dull them much. Couldn't shave with em anymore but they still cut paper cleanly
