Condor Atrox Knife 1814-10.8HC machete 61719

Friday 2 June 2023

Atrox is a beast of the chopper and large camp knife. As usual Condor delivers solid, no-nonsense quality and fit/finish. Almost 30 cm long blade is tough and wide, but not to thick and quite light and maneuverable. I like Condor's 1075 very much. The balance is great, slightly forward heavy as a chopper should be. Just holding it in my hand brings big smile to my face. Micarta on the scales is a pleasure for the eye and for the hand. The sheath deserves separate mention. Kydex is not very thick, but solid, well formed and fixation of the blade is spot on for the knife of this size and weight. Attachable leather belt loop system is very nice, comfortable and well thought of. It allows putting knife on and taking off without taking off the belt, but still very strong and dependable. Multiple eyelets provides unlimited quantity of alternative ways to fix the knife to your gear and backpack.
