Condor Tool & Knife Heritage Axe 1 – Honoring Tradition with Modern Craftsmanship

When it comes to rugged outdoor tools, the Condor Tool & Knife Heritage Axe 1 stands as a tribute to timeless craftsmanship blended with modern performance.

1060 High Carbon Steel Head – Forged for Power and Durability

The heart of the Heritage Axe 1 is its 1060 high carbon steel head, known for its incredible toughness, edge retention, and impact resistance. The natural forged finish not only adds a rugged, authentic look but also enhances the steel’s durability by preserving the raw integrity of the material. This finish gives each axe a unique, handcrafted aesthetic that echoes the tools carried by woodsmen of generations past.

The convex grind on the cutting edge provides superior chopping power, allowing for deep, clean cuts with every swing. This grind is favored for its durability, as it holds up exceptionally well under repeated impact—perfect for splitting wood, processing kindling, or tackling heavy-duty bushcraft tasks.

Burnt American Hickory Handle – Strong, Comfortable, and Timeless

The handle of the Heritage Axe 1 is crafted from rock-solid Burnt American Hickory, a wood renowned for its strength, shock absorption, and longevity. The burning process not only adds to the aesthetic appeal, giving the handle a rich, rustic finish, but also enhances the wood’s resilience by hardening its outer surface. This makes the handle more resistant to environmental wear and tear, ensuring it remains reliable in even the harshest conditions.

Designed with an ergonomic shape, the handle provides a comfortable grip that reduces fatigue during extended use. The lanyard hole at the base adds versatility, allowing for easy hanging when stored or for attaching a paracord lanyard for added security during use.

Compact Yet Powerful – Perfect for Field Use

With an overall length of 19.01 inches and a weight of 2.46 lbs, the Heritage Axe 1 strikes the perfect balance between portability and performance. It’s compact enough to be easily carried on your pack or strapped to your gear, yet powerful enough to handle demanding chopping, splitting, and bushcraft tasks. This makes it an ideal choice for campers, hikers, hunters, and outdoor professionals who need a reliable, all-purpose axe.

Handcrafted Leather Sheath – Protect Your Edge with Style

To keep the blade sharp and secure, the axe comes with a handcrafted welted leather sheath. This rugged sheath not only protects the cutting edge from damage but also adds a touch of classic outdoor elegance. The welted design ensures extra durability, standing up to the wear and tear of outdoor adventures while providing safe, convenient storage.

Renowned designer Joe Flowers brings his extensive knowledge of outdoor survival and bushcraft to the Heritage Axe 1.
