"I think I hit the jackpot with this purchase,it's super cool"
"Good Chopper for $20. More of a Parang than a Machete but decent quality for the price. Sharp as delivered with more of an Axe bevel edge so I'd suggest resharpening to a steeper angle for use. Nice full tang but the handle is designed for a large hand. Mine has the through tang material extending past the handle wood creating a slight ridge both top and bottom. Also the handle is a bit "blocky". I prefer a slightly rounded underside providing a smoother grip for my fingers. The blade is forward heavy and would benefit from larger Fullers and bevels at the front of the blade. Although stamped 440ss, it doesn't hold an edge well and needs sharpening regularly. Not for Hard Wood, more of a soft vegetation chopper. In my testing I found it great for soft vegetation but not so good on Scrub Oak. That said, it’s a good quality blade for $20! With 15 minutes work on my 1” belt sander, I now have a smooth, well-shaped handle and proper angle edge for this chopper. I have no doubt it’ll see a lot of use at our off-grid cabin this summer."
"The saw back on the blade is the best i'v seen, sharp, aggressive, keeps teeth after so many branches i'v cut, and the grip is alsome, even with wet hands, hand grip holds, no slippage, the weight of blade makes short work trimming what needs to be cut,, all in all, very functionable Machete, would be 5 star but the sheath needed upgrade, i added material to prevent curve of blade from rubbing hole,,,,,,,,,"
"Very nice knife received it as part of a SHTF box last year I like it a lot but recently I found a crack on the blade nothing that effects the performance of it right now but it could change in the future."
"Feels good in your hand, swings nice & cuts deep. Holding an edge pretty good so far & it gets used to hack & chop every thing."
"I was amazed with the weight and sturdiness of this blade. Not a junk flea market buy! You get more than what you pay for in my opinion."
"Buy cheap and buy twice. I'm always looking for good blades to use in trimming mangroves in our wetlands. Unfortunately this blade looks good but doesn't perform well. The second time I used it on a soft piece of mangrove the blade chipped badly for no particular reason that I can see. The blade must not have been formed properly nor hardened appropriately. Stay away. You get what you pay for."
"For such a big blade this knife is light. Just don't hit anything too tough. The blade is not hardened too well."
"Bought this Mainly cause it looks Cool & wicked kinda like the Hibben RAMBO Machete !!! Was impressed with the quality and looks and Free shipping. Only negative on mine atleast is where the Scales ( handle slabs fit behind the Guard / hilt weren't finished as Good as the rest of the Hilt /handle instead of being a smooth clean fit it's a Little bit Rough and whiskery at the Guard hilt juncture - Granted it's in an area that most people will never look see or notice but it brings the overall fitment of the Knife down because it shouldn't have been left undone ! Still given the price and overal quality otherthan this one issue I would say it's a Keeper!!!!"
