Fairly solid construction. Suitable for strong striking into wood due to the fairly strong and flexible steel. However, I definitely recommend buying knife oil because even after cleaning the blade, it can develop a slight layer of rust. Wiping with oil prevents this. I recommend!

First impression positive. The second one is a bit weaker, the paint has discolorations and needs sharpening, overall 4.
-
A tool for ages. Awesome.
-
Needs sharpening, blade slightly bent. These are the only drawbacks.
-
Nice and durable, but one downside is that it came unsharpened. It's not a big problem, as you just need to sharpen it and it's ready to use.
-
Nice machete, sturdy but a bit too short.
-
Sharp machete, fits well in the hand. Sturdy sheath but you need to figure out how to attach it to your belt. The product is multinational because Americans commissioned the machete from South Africa, while the sheath comes from China.
-
Well-made sheath, although something is missing to attach it to a belt or over the shoulder. Handy and sharp. It would be nice to polish it.
-
Sharp and sturdy. I recommend hanging it on the wall; it fits perfectly above the fireplace. I recommend.
-
Sharp, strong, and quite well-made for the price, it's okay. The handle is a bit slippery but you can wrap it with cord and it'll be fine.
-
Nicely made machete for this price. Great sheath. It secures the blade well. The product is very light and pleasant to use. It just lacks a strap so you could wear it like a samurai ;)
-
Solid machete, lightweight and handy. I recommend it.
-
Super sturdy machete - it has been tested.
-
Fairly solid construction. Suitable for strong striking into wood due to the fairly strong and flexible steel. However, I definitely recommend buying knife oil because even after cleaning the blade, it can develop a slight layer of rust. Wiping with oil prevents this.

Hello. It's rather a large knife with a tanto-shaped blade than a machete, came into my hands very well sharpened and preserved. In my opinion, it is very well balanced. You do not feel its weight - it’s not even 0.5 kg. A successful purchase. Worth recommending.
