hey I'm Joe flowers for condor tool and knife one of the designers here at this
wonderful company and we've got new stuff like crazy for 2019 now I'm just
gonna show you some some certain models that the editor hand-picked for you to
see but one of them kind of speaks to me because he did a call to arms
so David Andersen who is filming me right now did a really interesting piece
about the lack of competition choppers out in the industry and I had been
thinking about him just a little bit beforehand because the competition
choppers that people compete in in things such as blades sports are a
really interesting design and so I was like you know what it's time I'm going
to listen to this man and we designed the wood Buster chopper which meets all
of the specifications at least size wise as far as I can tell and I've checked
for the competition knives but it also is a fantastic chopper has a has a rivet
hollow rivet up top for that weight forward is that Osborne style lanyard I
believe or exile lanyard and it's also really really good at batoning
yes I said it we can baton with this knife it is 1/4 of an inch thick convex
edge weight forward design I put this little change here because it makes it a
little bit easier for a batoning it looks less like a cleaver that way but
this is a wood Buster chopper new for 2019 comes with the leather sheath
that's the one I wanted to talk about the most since he had something to do
with it Matt Graham came out with a light bush knife this is a smaller
version of his primitive bush knife it's about three millimeters thick very very
lightweight very very fast in the hand you can see how it has that continuous
curvature on it and that bilateral handle bilateral means like if you cut
it in half it's the same on both sides in case you didn't know there's a wallet
II terms the bush lore is one of our bestsellers
so we decided to beef it up like the Otzi knife from 2018 and put a flint
finish on it 1095 carbon steel there are rivets underneath each of
these handles but we had the braided braided brass wrap and it has an
integrated lanyard on the bottom here sticking out so that there's no rivets
on the side this is new for 2019 it's called the cave lore people are pretty
excited about it the campsite axe is our first injection-molded axe handle you
see it kind of looks like the pterosaur which you'll see later it's a really
nice single single piece design has a hidden Tang all the way through comes
with a small Kydex sheath that goes over the top this is also new for 2019 the
campsite axe we picked up a new designer he's been designing our cheese for a
while so we thought we'd give his knives a try you can might be able to tell by
the construction 7:10 custom cheese Julio Diaz he has the sbk knife which is
in 1095 carbon steel or it's in high carbon steel and it comes with a
five-inch blade my car to handle and you can see the sheath that comes with it
ambidextrous can flip over to both sides MOLLE compatible dangler on it they can
take all of that sheet thumb jewelry off and just have a very plain style sheath
as well he also designed a really cool Bowie
this year as well called the plan a Bowie with a nine and a half inch blade
it's my car to handle Kydex sheath with a dangler style system and in the fixes
said the Kydex sheath itself it's his really cool Bowie Bowie's are pretty
popular right now so why not well the odias design really ergonomic
handle - Tony Leonard's came out with the Pandor he had influence and swords
in making this knife it comes with the Kydex sheath
it's 1095 high carbon steel and this is also new paper micarta handle with
hollow rivets all along the side really really interesting and neat design we're
kind of using some more cnc work here so it's a it's kind of a change in what
we've done before but it's a pretty cool knife that just came out very
lightweight in the hand really cool design it's a dude by the
name of Horace Kephart who came out with an amazing knife blade and we've seen a
resurgence in the Kephart stuff condors done a cap art for a while
Ethan Becker at ka bar did a Kepheart and we wanted to continue this trend going
so we came out with a compact Kephart it's an EDC little cap art based on cap
arts design Horace Kephart father of the Great Smoky Mountains would handle 1095
high carbon steel comes with the leather sheath that hugs hugs the hip I can't
think of any more H words but it hugs the hip stunningly so it's very very
compact very close to the hip and I designed that this year based off of
Horace Kephart design really cool little handy blade I'm pretty excited about
this one myself new for 2019 snake themed vipera by para
is a genus out of Europe of venomous snakes and so we decided to keep that
theme going we use the handle from the aatrox also a venomous snake and put
that on here in a wood form with a really interesting stamped steel look on
it scales on the side here it's three millimeters thick a fantastically fast
chopper with a continuous edge all the way through really really incredible
looking knife jorge amana thought up of a way of making this really cool lasered
stand i'm not sure if we're actually making that for production but i thought
it was really really cool so this is called the vipera machete new for 2019
walnut handle 1075 high carbon steel so renewed for 2019 is a condor pterosaur
now we can't into debuted this in 2018 but we had some problems with the sheath
namely every time you pull the knife out the sheath would hang on to it and he
couldn't use it one-handed so that we're still tweaking the sheath but now we
have a complete new sheath redesign we're about ready to ship this is a full
tang foe hidden Tang 1095 high carbon steel extended pommel knife that has an
MSRP of $50 this knife is my baby I've been working on this for a
while so we really wanted to make sure that we got the sheath right it comes in
three different colors you can see here that we have it in brown as well we also
have it in the army green or coyote tan excuse me and a army green as well so
that's new this year it's finally going to ship out it's not a rare unicorn
you'll be able to find it you'll be able to buy it it can collect all three
colors shoot you can even mix and match your cheese if you want to pull off
something very fancy like that that looks good
