CASE KNIVES
High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Condor Viking Ironside Dagger is a commanding fixed blade inspired by historical fighting knives and built with modern craftsmanship for collectors, enthusiasts, and serious users alike. Designed by Condor Tool & Knife and released in 2026, this dagger blends classic form with contemporary materials to deliver a piece that’s as striking as it is functional.
At its core is an 8.00-inch blade crafted from 420HC stainless steel and finished with a high-polish surface that highlights its clean lines and symmetrical profile. Known for its corrosion resistance, toughness, and ease of maintenance, 420HC is a dependable steel well suited for a dagger-style blade that balances performance with long-term durability. The convex grind enhances cutting efficiency while reinforcing edge strength, giving the blade smooth penetration and consistent slicing performance. With a blade thickness of 0.14 inches, the Ironside maintains a refined profile without sacrificing structural integrity.
The overall length of 13.62 inches gives the dagger a balanced, authoritative feel in hand. A stick tang construction keeps weight centered and responsive, contributing to controlled handling and precise movement. Weighing 13.40 ounces, it offers enough mass to feel substantial without becoming cumbersome, whether displayed or handled.
The handle is crafted from hickory wood and wrapped in leather, delivering a traditional look and a secure, tactile grip. Hickory is valued for its strength and resilience, while the leather wrap enhances comfort and control, even during extended handling. Subtle Micarta components are incorporated for added durability and structural support, reinforcing Condor’s attention to detail in both materials and construction.
Included with the dagger is a handcrafted, welted leather sheath designed to protect the blade and provide safe, reliable carry or storage. The sheath complements the knife’s traditional aesthetic while offering long-lasting durability. Each knife is packaged in a carton box and carries a minimum purchase quantity of six units, making it well suited for retail or collection purposes.
The Condor Viking Ironside Dagger stands as a bold interpretation of a timeless weapon, combining polished stainless steel, natural wood, and leather into a distinctive fixed blade that reflects Condor’s dedication to quality, heritage, and purposeful design.
