CN2838155HC: Mountain Pass Machete

Condor Tool & Knife

Designed for those who don't see Mountains, but Opportunities! When climbing any outdoor challenge, an Explorer and the Mountain forge a PASS together using skill, determination, nature's openings, and the right tools. Just as the name implies, the new Mountain PASS Series by Condor is designed to help you through the toughest challenges. These designs by Jason Breeden, a West Virginia native who has spent his life in the hills and hollows, are mapped out by following the fundamental principles used by traditional woodsmen. As rugged and venerable as the Appalachians that inspired them, the Mountain PASS Series combines Condor's craftsmanship with modern materials to prevail through Plain And Simple Survival.

This Mountain Pass Machete comes with a 1075 high carbon steel blade with the signature Condor Classic finish that holds up well to hard use. Handles of the Mountain Pass line are made of a durable tan Micarta that gives superior grip even in wet conditions. All Mountain Pass blades come with a hand-crafted welted leather sheath.

Pros: Weight
Cons: Finish, Materials
Handle is a let down
Given this a full workout over several months doing general garden work, mainly limbing small trees and clearing brambles. Generally it is a good blade for general use, but doesn't cut it on hardwood.Pros:LightLooks goodBlade isn't too short.Cons:Uncomfortable handle - rotates in the hand easily and the scales recently loosenedDeflects/bounces easily. Weak handle grip exaggerates the issueIts a simple construction... definitely a tool for work, certainly NOT over-engineered. Is this a pro or a con?

Pros: Weight, Handle Material, Overall Quality, Blade Material, Materials, Blade Sharpness
Cons: None
A compact weighted machete with power and packability.
I needed a compact machete that could be worn comfortably in a small helicopter, but with the size and weight to cut lots of trail through spruce branches, and alder quickly.The 3mm thickness in the blade with all that material at the front makes this a great chopper and with the hand-and-a-half handle you can really put some power into each swing. Capability of a 18" machete with a more versatile form. The handle is the most outstanding part of this tool, with no irritation spots and contours that make it easy to hang on to even when fatigued. The index finger groove also makes the machete easy to use for percise cutting and notching if needed. Adding a lanyard more than makes up for the lack of a pommel flare. The micarta is very grippy with lots of surface texture, no issues there, some finish issues but nothing easily noticable.Blade came with a good working edge, centered perfectly, no curve to the machete's spine at all. Chopped frozen spruce with no chipping, so that's a win.Sheath finish and leather quality could be higher but it matches the price point and purpose.Overall a great compact machete. Looking forward to some hard use.

Mountain Pass Machete
The weight of this full tang machete is perfect for me. Allows for adequate force for removing very thick brush. This machete is a joy to use.
