My Mom is a Quilter... There is always something that parents don't tell you about. Oh, well, I guess that explains the teardrop tattoos and the skulls painted on her Harley Davidson...
This machete is a must have for landscapers like me, light enough to swing all day, thick enough to handle anything without bending. I can dig, pry, and cut centipede heads off as if I was a landscaping Chef...Solid
Just picked this up. Some observations I would like to share that may be helpful to others considering this machete.
1. It’s small, but very handy. Not a suitable replacement for an axe but could do most of what a hatchet can.
2. Canvas sheath is not great but does positively retain the blade.
3. Very comfortable and useful. I appreciate the draw knife hole and 90 degree spine.
4. The weight is perfect for duty in day pack. I wanted a tool that fit between my Tops Tex Creek XL and an axe, and it’s perfect in that role.
That is an oversized clever, not a machete. A machete is curved to help cut, a straight blade puts uneven pressure and will jam.
A machete is good a kukri is better, this thing is a decoration.
I gotta wonder if you've ever used something like the Buck Froe or Liberiat as a standard froe then. I've literally never had the Buck go off track when using it as a Froe. The grain of the wood prevents this. Comparing the 18" shingle froe I have on hand compared to the Buck Froe, there is no difference in the ease of making a straight cut. The only difference is that Buck requires you to bend down slightly more since it doesn't have a vertical handle, but has the added benefit of being able to be swung in a pinch.
I prefer this particularly when car camping as it allows me to split kindling without dangerously swinging a small hatchet and is much less awkward to pack then a standard froe, while again having the added benefit of being able to be swung in a pinch, which allows me to leave the machete at home (which is RARELY used by me when car camping, but is occasionally useful).
