Condor Otzi Knife 2.27" 1095 Carbon Steel Blade, Burnt Hickory Handle, Welted Leather Sheath

Ötzi is one of Europe's oldest natural preserved mummies. He is a treasure to the archaeological community due to the preservation of his remains, and his tools. In his toolkit, the Iceman had a flint dagger affixed to a wood handle. In honor of our universal human heritage, Condor presents the Otzi Knife, inspired by this hard use tool from a time when we relied on nature for our survival. It's a simple knife with a burnt American hickory wood handle with recessed wire wrap and handcrafted welted leather drop sheath.
