Condor Fortis Fidelis Axe
Condor Fortis Fidelis Axe Tactical Axe
The Fortis Fidelis tactical axe takes its name from the motto of the Chilean Marine Corps, which is "Fortis Atque Fidelis" (strong and faithful). More than 200 years ago, "soldiers of the sea" were given the mission to form an Assault Force, which they shot with their rifles and used white weapons such as "machetes" and "boarding axes". This weapon rescues a historical and traditional concept to become a modern tactical tool.
