The Condor Lost Roman knife came about in one of the most interesting ways. Years back, one of the underground "Lost Riverbeds" underneath London, England was excavated. What the anthropologists discovered was a bountiful trove of ancient Roman artifacts from the Imperial occupation of England. One of the interesting discoveries was an iron knife used by ancient Roman soldiers. This was the design inspiration for the Condor Lost Roman fixed blade knife. Condor updated the design with modern steel, comfortable walnut wood handles and a premium leather sheath. Grab a piece of history today.
