I got a Condor Golok in the mail today. It is one fine looking machete. I can't wait to try it out.
 
The Condor Golok is a very fine woods / survival tool for very little cash. Congrats. Go out and use it hard; it will only giggle.
 
Well here's a "before" pic:

You're embarrassing it. You are embarrassing it worse than a father hugging his 16 yr old son in the middle of the mall on a Saturday.

DO NOT put the venerable golok on a display stand!! :D
 
i dont know- i would think itd be ok sleeping there between workouts

id love to keep one on my nightstand in such a way
up in the morning and grab my golok :D
 
You won't regret buying it I have been very impressed with mine it chops very nicely given it's rather small size.
 
It's a great piece of equipment. Mine is likely to be getting some serious use as I have had a large tree fall next to my house. Already used the SS Bolo machete from Condor for a few hours on it, need to switch blades, perhaps.
 
I got my Condor Golok about 3 weeks ago & the sheath came in last week. I had to Mod the sheath for us SouthPaws so that it was a CrossDraw style for the Left handed person (popped the rivit out & put the belt loop on the other side of the sheath with a new rivit) Now I need a to play with it ! I also got The Condor Parang but they are out of stock on the sheath for it. Be sure to put a lanyard loop on that beast before you go chopping, you don't want that beast getting loose from you !
 
Tooo pretty. Drag it behind the truck.
 
Not to the best of my knowledge, unless the change took place in the past month. Looks like that one somehow has less mass at the tip on the edge side. :confused:
 
I really like the Condor Golok. I recently received the Condor Parang and a spare Golok. Yeah, I like the Golok.

The 2011 ones I had received in my first shipment had the more robust belly to them. No confusing the 2011 and 2010 models with each other on account of the 2011 ones being full tang, too. I've got some more on the way, though, so I guess we'll find out!

Man this is so confusing....

Very interesting indeed. I like the new tip design and they're full tang too? Would you be willing to compare the two and give us your impression of the new design compared to the old?
 
Sure--I don't have any of the old ones, but I've played with both the 2010 3/4-tang ones and the 2011 full-tang ones. I'll report my findings! If you look in Joezilla's signature you can see a mini picture of his original design image for it and it has the more bulbous belly.
