Just a quick note to express my pleasure with the Undertaker Bowie from Condor Tool & Knife I received this morning. It's a beautiful instrument with great lines and balance.
It came wrapped very carefully -- as if it had been prepared for shipment by a rare book dealer. Lightly oiled, carefully wrapped in tissue and then plastic, and then finally boxed.
Under direct sunlight I couldn't find a single flaw. The grind looks perfect. The walnut handle has beautiful tight grain. The gorgeous leather sheath is overly tight, but that'll work itself out. This is one of those knives that was frequently suggested to me by Amazon. For the price -- under 90 bucks, I always meant to grab one, as I had long desired a big knife with a "coffin" grip.
They've been out of stock at most online sellers, although the scalpers do have them for $120+ When Amazon had some stock several days ago at the old price, I finally dropped the hammer, and I'm now glad I did.
I love the fact that it's manufactured in El Salvador. It did a real nice job on tonight's BBQed Tri-Tip, that's for sure!
