CONDOR CTK12259SS PATAGON WALTER MATTHEWS 420HC STEEL WALNUT HANDLE FACON FIXED BLADE KNIFE W/SHEATH.

Inspired by the “facon” style knives used by old-timer men of the vast plains of Patagonia, the Patagon Knife was designed, like its predecessors, to hunt, butcher, process prey, and cut leather and other typical crafts from the life of the hunter and wilderness men. The Patagon Knife features a leather sheath with a snap button to add more security during belt carry. Its 420HC Stainless Steel gives it an excellent sharpness to the edge as well as protection against moisture from prey processing and other hunting tasks in nature.
