Condor knives

[ktomes_340]

I was wanting to know if all Condor knives have a scandi grind, or is it just the bush craft/lore line of knives? I have a med. bushcraft, a bushlore a sapien, a nessmuk, and a rodan and was wanting to know the edge types of the rodan and the nessmuk. Thanks for any and all help.

None of them have a real Scandinavian grind in my opinion. They use a saber grind with a convex edge.

The Bushcraft Basic and Bushlore series have a very slight convex to them in a style commonly referred to as "scandivex." It doesn't take much work to convert them if you so choose, but it's not a pure-blooded scandi. They cut very well regardless, and the edge is more durable as a result.

The Nessmuk has a similarly shallow "scandivex" to it in most recent examples, while the Rodan has a very narrow true convex edge and a full flat grind. It cuts like a Mora but it's a much better slicer. I love mine and have beaten it half to death and back and it keeps begging for more.

Condor products ROCK !!! VERY high bang for the buck. You may have to reprofile certain ones though. I have a Boomslang & LOVE it, but i did have to reprofile the blade. I know there is a Hudson Bay knife & some others in my future sometime.
