Condor messer

This bad boy totally wins the Crocodile Dundee quote competition, and is the arming sword / short sword version of the two-handed Condor grosse messer. Both are made in El Salvador by Condor Tool and Knife Company, and feature a 1075 high carbon steel blade with a thick back edge and a razor sharp cutting edge. The full length tang is slab hilted in hickory with a walnut Condor head pommel. (look again at the pictures above - see? Condor head. clever.) The scabbard is leather covered hardwood with steel fittings.
