Condor Pictus Knife
Pictus by Condor is a handmade survival knife.
Pictus was inspired by Celtic culture, in which warriors decorated their weapons, equipment and even made tattoos on their bodies with distinctive Celtic engravings. The name "Pictus" also has its original meaning (painted and engraved). "Endless knots" on the blade and handle are very characteristic of Celtic culture.
Condor Pictus knife has full tang construction type. The knife has a 15.5 cm blade, which is made of 1095 carbon steel. The sharp edge of the knife's back guarantees good cooperation with the flint, which can be attached to the scabbard, which is equipped with a dedicated loop for this purpose.
Richly decorated scabbard not only protects the knife well but, thanks to its successful design and excellent finish, emphasizes the uniqueness and style of the knife. In a pocket located on the front of the scabbard you will find sharp, steel arrowheads (3 pcs).
