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 field dress and prepare them for the table as well.  And when you look at the meager cost, it??s got to be one of the best bargains for the money.

These blades are mad out of SAE 1055 medium carbon steel and are dipped in a special anti-rust solution before having a black baked on finish applied.  Each Cold Steel machete comes with a good utility edge that will cut right out of the box, and with just a little work it can be made hair shaving sharp.  The handles of our machetes are designed to provide a comfortable secure grip, yet they resist chipping, cracking, or breaking, and last practically forever.

Versatile.
That, period, paragraph, is the only word to describe this machete. Perhaps you might keep one edge thin for the light vegetation and the other a little on the thicker side for the heavy stuff. Or your may opt to keep both edges equally sharp so that when an edge gets dull after heavy use, you can flip it over and keep on going.  If your life is in jeopardy, those two sharp edges will make your machete into a virtual ??buzz-saw?? with the ability to cut from any angle with a turn of your wrist.  Two edges beats one edge every time!
