Description:
The Condor Ötzi Knife 3922-2.2HC is a remarkable knife. This knife is based on a knife made from fire stone that was found next to the ice mummy called Ötzi. Designer Joe Flowers used that knife and turned it into a contemporary version.
The Condor Ötzi Knife is enhanced with a remarkable edge: it has a primary scandi grind, but with a convex finish. This is also called a 'scandivex'. As such you can benefit from the advantages of a scandi and convex grind at the same time. Great for wood work.
The blade of the Condor Ötzi is made from 1095 carbon steel. A strong type of steel that is easy to sharpen and can handle quite a bit. 1095, however, is not completely stainless. As such you need to clean it regularly and add a drop of oil once in a while. The handle is made from American hickory wood. This type of wood is known for its strength. It is for a reason that this type of wood has been used for axes and hammer handles for years. The handle is wound with bronze wire. This will discolour in time and form a patina which will make each knife unique.
The Condor Ötzi comes with a leather sheath. It is enhanced with a leather strap you can use to hang it around your neck or shoulder.
