– Machete w/ Reverse Serrations – Black/Satin Blade, Full Tang, Black/Orange Rubberized Nylon Fiber Handle, Nylon Sheath, Outdoor, Hunt, Camp, Hike, Survival, JM-024L

This is a really cool machete - Why? because it is hard to loose out of a strike as the grip hand protection prevents any flow out of your hand. The sheath is bit tight at the top entrance which in time will tear it up so I put in a metal nut & bolt to stop the inevitable wear. The chopping is good and strong of both branches, thorns, and twigs as well as regular lumber trunks. If the handle grows loose you can just tighthen it with a screwdriver - nice and durable! There is a strap to wrap around your hand should you get really busy in you work not to drop the machete. All in al a solid product worth is money. AAA-rating.

I bought for my survival kit and it works great will be buying another for our outdoor trip soon very sharp and great quality well worth the price

This is a good machete, however, it is heavy.

The handle design is unusual and very ergonomic. If you plan on using a machete for long periods this is better because you don't have to grip it so hard to control it. There's a reason military swords were designed with this type of handle ! Super sharp too.

Very sturdy, used it to cut down a six foot bush and it was incredibly useful. Great buy all around.

I don't like the balance of this tool. The tip is way too heavy which is fine for chopping but exhausting to pack and use anywhere. Very good if you are going nowhere but in that case an axe or trail axe will do a better job. I disagree that it is easier to use. The handle appears to be made of plastic like many other Chinese tools that seem to be rebranded. The sheath is cheap cloth, (my snap fails to work) and it is difficult to draw this tool without snagging the sheath. That said, I am sure you can find some use for it and it is reasonably priced. Handles and grips are important for protecting your hands in thick or thorny bush.

Simply put, this is a quality product. It seems to be well balanced and the weight allows the blade to do the work instead of quickly tiring out my arm. The sheath is nylon, so that's neither a pro or a con...it just is. But my greatest praise is for the handle. It feels rubbery, which allows for a good grip, and it seems to absorb some of the impact, saving wear and tear on my hand and arm. I'm very pleased with this purchase.

It arrived with the tip of the blade broken off, but it’s still usable for what I need it for
