Description
If you were suddenly castaway on a desert island or stranded in the wilderness or a jungle, what’s the one tool you would want at your side? The answer is a good machete. These blades are made out of 1055 Carbon Steel with a tough spring temper and are surfaced with a black, baked-on anti-rust finish. Each Cold Steel® machete comes with a good utility edge which, with just a little work, can be made hair shaving sharp. The tough, Polypropylene handles of our machetes are designed to provide a comfortable secure grip, and they are rugged enough to resist chipping, cracking or breaking, so they last practically forever. There’s no single edged weapon that we can think of that can out-chop or out-cut a good Kukri. It’s true that the best Kukris, like our LTC and Gurkha models, can be somewhat expensive. While those “thoroughbreds” perform extraordinarily well for the money that they cost, it sometimes seems that what’s required is a good, inexpensive, “workhorse” model. Our Kukri Machetes are those workhorses. They are available in two sizes, one has a thirteen inch blade and the other, our new “Magnum” model has a whopping seventeen inch blade. Each features the distinctive weight-forward balance of our “top-of-the-line” models, and always present their edge on an angle. Additionally, they come complete with a sturdy Cordura sheath! They’re a solid value, ready for long, hard work.
