Condor Tool & Knife

CONDOR TOOL & KNIFE traces its proud history back to 1787, the year GERB WEYESBERG COMPANY was founded in Solingen, Germany.

The quality of the swords, military knives, agricultural tools and household cutlery they manufactured made Solingen the cutlery capital of the world. Over the generations, the world’s largest manufacturer of swords and knives found it necessary to expand operations to other countries to better serve its customers.

In 1964, the company formed IMACASA with a new plant in Santa Ana, El Salvador and filled it with state of the art German equipment. Some of the original local employees who were sent to Solingen for extensive training forty years ago are still working in the factory today, turning out the finest quality machetes, shovels and other hand tools.

IMACASA’s Central American operations were sold in the 1980’s to local investors. Today, IMACASA is one of the largest machete and shovel manufacturers in the world operating 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to fill an increasing worldwide demand for its products.

In 2004, IMACASA developed a first quality line of tools and knives for the North American and European outdoor markets. CONDOR TOOL & KNIFE was born.

Just used my old throwing axe to practice close quarter tactics on a suspended tree limb/log.It was fun and stress releiving!

Condor has some stainless steel stuff, but the majority of them are carbon steel. I'm sure it'd be great, Hog!

Condor came out with a new machete pretty sure it had an orange handle. I don't remember what they called it but I thought it had a Carbon Steel blade, Is that right? I wonder if it would with stand some heavy duty chopping?

Great Pat, I know you are gonna enjoy it. Some of those knives remind me of my Swamp Knife I had made. That's a great soldier story also. Please post some pictures when you get it.
