    Mr. Tanner just would like to thank you personally for your channel its content and what it has done to change my life . Back in 2008 I was a industrial painter and I loved my job , but on October 4th of 2008 everything changed when a load of metal elevator doors tipped over on me I tried to stop them but the weight was to much and it slammed over on me and I woke up on the ground in a pile of metal. I was in the hospital for a week . Well just over 10 years and 3 surgeries later I've gotten 12 fusions 2 bars 1 plate and about 40 screws in my neck down to in between my shoulder blades . I used to play sports and I was in martial arts but that all changed . I felt useless and I didn't know what to do , but in 2015 I found your channel and I got the " sickness " and started getting starter pocket knives .Then in October 2018 came and I got a little blade called JX5 The Vengeful One ! Then a miracle happened in December and SMKW found a cache of the last ever produced Jessica X's and I snapped up one for me and one for my brother , I felt like I won the lottery . I now am in the process of saving for JX4 Bushbat . I now get outside and have passion in my life once again . I don't know if I should thank you or ask you where I can get counciling cause this is getting serious , when I shop for knives I get sweaty thats how bad I got it ! But seriously thanks for PM 101 and all your knives , in my life it really made a difference so Thank You.

    I like that blade, and the entire package is well thought out. This is the one that I was wondering about out of shot show. Wouldn't have know about the grind from seeing images. Thanks for the continuous content and giving people the opportunity to win some blades. Great work Chris

    Hats off to SMKW and yourself for showcasing this knife, I would glady accept the challenge of seeing what I could do with hand sharpening this blade. Yes it's been very rainy here in the Buckeye State, something like 20 days it hasnt rained since Christmas.

    Your sooooo real to this day and that's refreshing. I really like the depth of the blade. It gives me the feeling it's bullet proof and would last forever. Thanks much for your hard work and dedication. Blessings to you and your family 😇 🇺🇸

    Your review is spot on for this knife. I bought one in December and had to regrind the blade to thin out the edge . My sheath was also stiff and felt dry, so I treated it with mink oil and it came out great. After those tweaks I'm really happy with this knife .Cheers from snowy and cold Ontario ;)

    Condor is stepping up their game. I don't mind 1075 at all, I just carry a small ceramic rod for sharpening. Very nice sheath. Thanks for the review and GAW.

    Thanks for the review Chris...I am a subscriber of yours since the very beginning but never left a comment...I really appreciate what you do showing us all of those products. Condor is actually improving a lot their lineup, but they still have issues with convex grinds...I had an HD Kukri and sold it because it has a really bad convex on it. This knife looks amazing to me... really a beauty. Nice job Condor, keep listening to the customers and just sharpen those beauties a bit more!

  • @kimpetersen2046
    @kimpetersen2046 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great video, the 3 loops on the back might be if you want to carry it scout style ? or would it fall out the sheath ? i have never had a condor knife only Kershaw & Schrade

    Love Condor knife and tool. Don't know if you have done them yet but the Hudson Bay or moonstalker are two I want to look at. I also like the new Flint patter on some of the newer ones, but does it affect the cutting?(how deep is the hollows and such?)

    Great review as always....I would like to see a comparison between the Selknam and the Toki. I have been looking at both for a little while now, and not real sure which one would perform better as a camp knife.

    Are the loops on back of sheath for horizontal carry?

  • @kyleburchard134
    @kyleburchard134 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Any chance those loops on the back are for scout carry? They look weird for that sort of thing but it could work I guess.
