      @robmarshall11 Před 5 lety

      WastelandWanderer 76 those are Fox Knives Kukris. They are made from n690 Steel, which is extremely resistant to moisture. Tanto is FX9CMO5T (also available in bronzed finish w/green handle) and the drop point is FX9CMO4T.
      I went with the Tanto tip as it’s stronger for prying/puncturing. Handle is great, no hot spots with heavy use. Blade is very resilient, but I recommend a WorkSharp to sharpen it.

      If you’re depending on any of these to survive, you’re going to have a bad time.
      Spend the money on a quality blade. The Kailash Blades “Knout” is one of the most impressive survival choppers I’ve ever seen (and I am a collector of fairly high end stuff). Jorge Sprave does a full review.

    I might be called an idiot for spending a lot for a ColdSteel Kukri... But its thick, durable, heavy and holds an edge longer than other machetes I used to own. The process of San Mai in the ColdSteel is the best I've used. Having a machete too sharp out of the box can fold the edge of the blade like the Gerber models I've used in the past. I use my kukri on Mesquite and can go through it easier than I saw the advertised machetes trying to go through pine.

    The "Broadcut" machete is actually a Parang. One company you did not mention, is Condor Tool and Knife. They have some wonderful machete's all made from 1075 carbon steel, with great leather sheath's. The other problem with stainless steel is it is actually rather brittle and does not have much flex to it. As other have said most of the machete's you mentioned are not very good or worth buying, much less relying on in the woods. P.S. I am 56 years old and I have been collecting knives since the early 80s.

      I'm replying as you mentioned Ontario machetes. I quit buying them over 30 years ago because I would chip out half-dollars sized pieces from the blade while brush clearing in the mountains. I see a lot of people on CZcams like them. Have you experienced any chipping problems with them? If they've fixed that problem, I'd like to give them another chance.

    As far as machetes go, I prefer American and British Military machetes. As far as Khukris go I prefer genuine gurkhas, the Becker-Reinhardt, Ka-bar and top end Cold Steel. Most of the items here are low budget but are good entry level items. Look for product fails on You-tube for the products shown here. Find out from the manufacturers how and if any problems have been addressed. Most product failures involve tempering of steels. There are many stainless steel types some can be very well tempered to compete with carbon steels. Unless you know metallurgy it is better not to poo poo on stainless unless you couple it with the manufacturers name, if you have had trouble with it. I have seen very expensive knives fail from batch tempering in the attempt to speed up production. So while the knives are reputable a small batch may have shown up to be failures. Warranties are very important to cover this. Furthermore, certain woods can wreak havoc on blades. Machetes were not generally designed for chopping down trees, but meant for clearing paths and underbrush. Large knives, bodies, etc do much heavier chopping work. There are machetes and there are choppers, two different things. Know your blades purpose before buying and be certain it will do the job!

    If you hunt while carrying that Gator Machete, just know that nice sheath is pretty loud when or if you move or twist in certain situations. It rattles inside the sheath. Well unless you have it secured a certain way like maybe the bottom portion secured or tied to your lower thigh or something. If hanging on just your belt it'll rattle making you announce your presence unwantedly to your prey. Lol just saying from my experience using it yesterday for the first time rabbit hunting.

    the gator machete only goes into the handle about .25 of an inch behind the second bolt and that means as soon as you chop a branch any bigger than around an inch its gonna stress the handle and weaken maybe even break it the only full tang one i have seen so far is the sog the others that claim full tang won't hold a magnet at the pommel it just falls off because there's nothing there, the gerber machete at around 8 minutes is full tang, you can see the steel in the lanyard hole but the one before it is not. the ones with the full tang are the only ones worth getting and even some of those are probably way more expensive than they need to be for a brush clearing tool or a campers nightmare tool go to your local discount tool like railroad salvage and grab yourself a 5 dollar machete, they come with a half ass edge on them so all you need to do is sharpen it

    I will probably get some crap for this but who cares right? The Gerber broadcut is just another version of the Bear Grylls Parang. I love the Bear Grylls Parang. As a landscaper, I have cut acres and acres of sod beating the hell out of it, hitting rocks, concrete, metal etc. And the thing just won't give up. I bring it with me into the woods camping as well. It has served me better than any other machete I've ever owned. Extremely tough and versatile. Cut sod one day, chop wood the next, then come home wash it up and cut vegetables. That's just my two cents.

    Good luck getting any of them thru Customs, if they have to be imported.

      Where do you live? I always got my machetes, knives and swords through our customs procedure (even though we've got some fucked up knife-/weapons-laws in Germany...). A machete is a tool, foremost. (Although, most of the models presented in this video are crappy wallhangers.)

    LOL the lanyard is made to go around your wrist so that the blade doesn't fly away from you if you loose grip.

    Alright so I consider myself a bit of a machete enthusiast. I’ve been using them since about 3rd grade and have used them in grasslands, evergreen forests, thickets, and tropical jungles. As result I have a number of machetes, luckily most are fairly inexpensive.
    The first thing is knowing what your chopping.
    Elephant grass and green fibrous vines (like blackberries) do best with a lightweight, long (18-24”) thin blade. I like cold steel, schrade, or whatever is at the hardware store for cheap. Don’t spend much, you will ruin the blade because this type of terrain is impossible to see through so you’re chopping all day long and eventually will hit a barbwire fence/rock/Volkswagen/long dead push mower/etc. The important thing to look for in these terrains is sharp, light, long, disposable, AND ONE PIECE GRIP!!! Any burr or split in the grip will chew your hand to burger. Knurling is also important as slipping will turn your hand into a giant blister. Bolo or Latin style are my favorites against green vine, a grass machete of course does great against grass but tends to be flimsy against vines (in general, I have seen grass style machetes that were beasts)
    Woody vine thickets (jungle grab bag): these are your huckleberry, Asian holly, Oregon grape, juniper bush type thickets. Here you want a 16-18 inch, a bit of a thicker blade. I got my wife the Schrade in this video and it is pretty decent. The saw spine works but really doesn’t get much play. A more curved design really helps, the length helps save your hands from thorns. Generally in these terrains your chopping a few minutes and done so spending a bit more and caring more for your blade isn’t a bad idea. If a person was going to get one machete, this is the class to look at because they tend to be the middle ground. You can get through elephant grass (unlike the next category) and you can chop through some bigger sticks better than grass machetes.
    Evergreen forest: So this is a weird one because generally once you get in the forest it’s much more open but you have some hard wood chopping up front. This is where you can drop a bit more. You want a heavy short chopper. About a 12 inch heavy blade is great. I absolutely love my K-bar Kukri machete here. It’s like a hatchet but then works as a regular knife too. GOD help you if you come out of the woods into a 100 yards of elephant grass or briers with a 12 inch Kukri, but GOD help you if you find yourself confronted with having to go through a pine tree with a grass machete.

    Having used a machete as a tool of trade using it daily there isn't one of these I would use. The way we sharpen them allows us to cut though 2 Inch, 50mm green branches in one hit, and as a bonus they cost $10.
