Condor Kickback Knife
Condor Kickback Knife
Condor Tool & Knife Kickback knife is made of 1075 high carbon steel, heat treated and annealed to a hardness of approximately 50-55 on the Rockwell scale. The edge is hand-finished and polished to razor sharpness. The blade is coated with black epoxy powder coating, which is a heavy black paint made by powder coating. The paracord-wrapped handle is made of real 500-pound test parachute cord, which has seven internal strands for further use in situations where one piece of rope may not be enough. One of the strands in the center can be further separated, providing fishing line, sewing thread or assistance in any situation where a thin, strong line is needed. The included Kydex scabbard with ball chain necklace is handmade with quality and pride and is resistant to the elements.
