CASE KNIVES
High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Condor Skadi Fixed Knife is engineered for extreme conditions, bringing a compact, highly capable tool to adventurers, outdoorsmen, and professionals who operate in cold, unforgiving environments. Named after Skadi, the Norse goddess of winter, mountains, and the hunt, this knife embodies resilience and precision for users who demand reliability in frost, sleet, and wet, challenging conditions where ordinary tools fail. Every detail of the Skadi is designed to prioritize function, control, and strength over style, making it a dependable companion when the elements are at their harshest.
At the heart of the Skadi is a 4.74-inch blade made from 1075 high carbon steel, coated with an epoxy black powder finish to resist corrosion and abrasion. The convex grind enhances cutting performance and durability, allowing the blade to handle demanding tasks such as batoning wood, scraping, slicing cord, or tackling hard camp chores without hesitation. At 0.2 inches thick, the blade provides substantial strength while maintaining precise control for detail-oriented cutting in challenging environments. Full tang construction ensures the entire knife is as strong as the blade itself, giving the user confidence that the Skadi will withstand hard use.
The handle is crafted from black paper Micarta, a material known for toughness and reliable grip even in wet or icy conditions. Its ergonomic shaping allows for secure handling whether worn with gloves or used bare-handed, keeping control intuitive and firm when fingers are numb or slippery. The handle’s low-profile, functional design aligns perfectly with the knife’s overall philosophy: practical, durable, and performance-oriented.
For safe transport, the Skadi comes with a Kydex sheath featuring a leather belt loop, allowing for versatile carry while keeping the blade protected and accessible. At 9.36 inches overall and weighing just over 10.5 ounces, the knife strikes a balance between compact portability and substantial presence, making it ideal for fieldwork, survival, or outdoor utility tasks where dependability is critical. Packaged in a sturdy carton box, the Skadi reflects Condor Tool & Knife’s commitment to quality materials and thoughtful design.
Compact and stout, the Skadi balances portability with stability for precision work in harsh environments, available at SMKW.
