Condor Otzi Knife
The Otzi Knife is a handmade knife made by the well-known and internationally respected Salvadorian company Condor Tool&Knife.
The Condor Otzi Knife, designed by Joe Flowers, refers to the discovery of an ice man whose body was found in an Alpine glacier. A primitive knife with a flint blade was found in the equipment of this unusual tourist from 3,300 years ago.
Condor Otzi is a small knife with a hammered carbon steel head, which is set in a stylized American walnut (hickory) wood handle. Included with the knife is a leather sheath with a braided thong that protects the knife and allows it to be carried around the neck.
