16-3/8" Bolo Machete -
The machete has proven to be the ultimate outdoor and survival tool. It will cut, chop, slash, or smash just about anything you can put in front of it. It can be used to kill both fish and game and will also field dress and prepare them for the table as well. And when you look at its meager cost, it's got to be one of the best bargains for the money. These blades are made out of SAE 1055 medium carbon steel and are dipped in a special anti rust solution before having a black baked on finish. Each machete comes with a good utility edge that will cut right out of the box and, with a little work, can be made hair shaving sharp. The handles are made out of polypropylene. They're designed to provide a comfortable secure grip, resist chipping, cracking or breaking, and to last practically forever. Known throughout Asia and Pacific Rim, the Bolo Machete features a "fat" point that shifts its weight forward where it can do the best when heavy chopping or slashing is called for. It's an excellent survival tool and will open a coconut or chop down a tree with equal ease.

Reviewer: woodsyowl
Not near enough weight for any serious hacking, after about 5 mins. my wrist was feeling strained. It might be fine for wacking briars or small vines, or for a woman. I had to toss this thing aside and go back to my old machete for now, a waste of money for me.

After trying a few machetes from Lowes and Home Depot I read a forum comment from someone about these Cold Steel machetes. They are considerably thicker than the machetes I've had in the past and hold an edge much better (and actually arrive with a pretty decent edge - unlike the ones from Lowes and HD). This thing has held up perfectly after numerous tough weekends of clearing brush, etc. And I'm hard on these things... I've chopped all sizes of branches, small trees, smacked the dirt numerous times, and left it outside for weeks. At less than $8.00 it is practically disposable but it is still in excellent condition. Just spend 5 minutes filing a good edge on it and you are ready to go! If anyone knows of a better machete for even twice the price please let me know.
