  • GUILTY PLEASURE

    This is perhaps the best machete I've had, I think primarily because of the long handle that allows for a two-handed grip. It's a functional sword, for crying out loud. I've had a variety of guloks, bolos, itaks, and a host of other commercial machetes, but most if not all of them are designed for one hand wielding. The two-handed grip makes the difference. You get more power and improved control. It's light and quick for single hand swing, like when you're hiking and need to clear a path. the extra long handle extends the blade away from you for greater coverage. Or you can choke it up for more precise cuts. With two hands, it almost feels like a katana. Not razor sharp, after all, you're not shaving with this. You might need to sharpen it a bit though to get rid of the usual burrs that come with most commercial machetes, easy enough. The sheath is okay just to protect you and the blade, but I'm thinking of having a custom sheath made for a more "tactical" feel. There are youtube videos if you want to see its performance. I'm just here to help you decide whether to get one or whatever. GO. Click BUY NOW.

  • Coldsteel is by far top quality I've watched YouTube video 4years and love there stuff

    It's even better than I was expecting very well made Sheth that come whit it is also very well made no cheap Materials Never mind a lot of blades in my life I have bought many now but this is my favorite & best by far one of the sharpest and most well made ones for the price of it Blew my mine among the mini swords katana's and Machetes that I've got and some I've paid 8-10 times this for a couple of them and there not even comparable to this one so I recommend it 100% if you want a durable sharp & menacing looking weapon Look no further than Cold steeI i will definitely be purchasing many more items from them check them out on YouTube You won't regret it you can thank me later

  • with 1 in each hand I could be a bush hog

    Sharp out of the box. Using it to clear a large patch of briars. It gives you the reach and it isn't near as heavy as a bush axe so you get fast cuts to chop light brush but strong enough to cut wrist thick material with a few two handed whacks. Only Con: round handle does allow blade to roll with some strikes...wrap it

  • Thai machete

    I love all kind of swords and machetes. But this little i would say southeast asian machete is probably my favorite one of all. I wish cold steel would have make the blade a little wider from top to bottom (spine to blade). I love the look of it and the use of it. Its a pretty light machete where you feel like a holding a stick but pretty powerful.

  • Great brush cutter

    I used this for an entire day cutting honeysuckle back from the ATV trails on our farm. The long handle makes it very controlable and it is devastating on light brush and grape vines - plus it holds an edge like there is no tomorrow. Oh yeah - very nice sheath!

  • COLD STEEL!! AWESOME machete, unbeatable value!

    For the price, I just had to.. what? I got problems ok? Lol. But seriously, this thing is sweet, and for the price, the quality doesn't seem lacking! Both aesthetically pleasing, as well as ergonomically, and functional. Haven't had chance to abuse it yet, but I suspect it'll hold up sufficiently long enough. And if not, it was worth the price!

  • It slices and it will kill any beast...

    For being made in Thailand, it's pretty good quality. It says 1055 carbon steel, which is good for a machete... I haven't done any chopping with it yet, but I did some cutting , slicing tests and it performs well... I used a raw thawed pork shoulder. It suffered catastrophic damage from the slices... (Yes I cooked it.) Good for survival...

  • Best 30-40 machete you can have.

    Great perfect size feel in hand sharp enough for out of package. Tip is dumb pointy blade has just enough flex can't beat it for the price.
