Description

CN395242HC: Krakatoa Folding Knife, Walnut Wood

Condor Tool & Knife

Condor Tool & Knife presents its first scandi-ground, high carbon steel folding knife ready for the great outdoors. Engineer Jorge Umaña and designer Joe Flowers pulled out all the stops, creating a patented lock strengthening mechanism, the "Condorlock" system, that disperses pressure on the handle when put under stress. With a carbon steel blade and a walnut handle, the Krakatoa is meant to rock the folding knife market.

Waste of $.
Waste isn't something I'm used to saying with Condor. Granted they re not Tops' but for 100 bucks I expect atleast that much knife. Hard to open without adjustment which leaves a WABBLE blade? Nothing fixes this. You choose WABBLE or sore thumb. The locks locked position is over travel. Nothing fixes this. Luckily the lock is thick enough that it isn't much of a concern even withthe blade WABBLE. Poor design. Poor construction. Poor execution. However I love the knife. Solid. Sexy. Sharp af. Sliced like butter. Tight clip. Too tight but whatever. By the time i decided I should've gotten my money back I'd used it way too much. Just trust Condor to stick with what they know..hard use obscure fixed blades that rock.

Cons: None
Krakatoa everything it is "krack'd" up to be.
I have purchased two of these Krakatoa's a couple of years ago. With minor adjustment, both are smooth opening hard working EDC's and neither have blade wobble with adjustment. The steel is 1095 carbon so if not maintained will rust. For 1095 steel and a one sided handle scale, I think it is a little bit pricey for what it is. But overall, it is a solid reliable knife. I use them routinely in my rotation for EDC and overall I am happy with the purchase and would recommend the knife to those who want a good, moderately priced knife without a whole lot of bells and whistles.
