CAMILLUS CARNIVORE Inject 18" Durable 420 Stainless Steel Titanium Bonded Hunting Hiking Camping Survival Machete with Molded Sheath & Removable Trimming Knife

It came within a week of ordering it (super fast). The sheath is a nice plastic, so it will hold up over time unlike nylon sheaths. The Machete is Good quality and met expectations and surpassed them. The blade isn't AS sharp as I would like but after I sharpen it that won't be an issue at all. The little knife slides into the handle and clicks in for storage. The knife was sharp. So no need to be sharpening it more than the way it came. So all in all I give it a 9/10. Would have been a 10/10 if the Machete was super sharp. Worth every cent, nice balance in weight as well! Comfortable grip! Gonna buy the bigger 23" version as well.

It's solidly built the blade is thick and well weighted so it cuts through smaller branches etc fairly well.Very usable as a machete but the blade material makes it tough to sharpen.

SO, I moved to a farm from the big city. The first thing I was sure I would need is a knife that in any other location would get me arrested or recruited by Ninjas. I bought this thing, and it it's sturdy and sharp. It has great weight to it, the carrying sheath is solid so you don’t feel like you are going to stab yourself when you try to put it up. I have used it to cut rope, even gone after some branches with it and it’s still sharp. I feel like red neck Conan out there when I pull this thing out, and the Nope Ropes that dwell on the property are vanishing quickly. I can’t wait until winter when I can put on a trench coat and go Boondocks Highlander out here on some serpents.

It’s a work horse and will get the job done. One downside though it says the blade length is 18 inches but it’s actually 12 inches. The overall length machete is 18 inches as you can see in the picture. For the price though it is not a bad deal.

Yeah works great for what it is don't have to worry about rust as bad as high carbon maybe not as strong but how strong does it need to be to chop branches and fairly soft zombie heads.it is tough enough for me and seems to hold an edge.

Promises to last a long time under heavy use.Rust resistance seems to hold as does the edge.

Be aware that the smaller knife that is shown in the picture is hidden in the hilt if the machete. Awesome product. Does a good job, nice sharpness. Good for zombie apocalypse too...lol

I submitted a return for this, because the blade wasn't razor sharp. But, since I was outside playing with my daughter, I decided to torture test it. To my surprise, this machéte destroyed everything I used it on, including a 4_in diameter hardwood branch. Afterwards, the blade is still straight as an arrow, with just a few barely noticeable nicks. The digging point works incredibly well. You wouldn't need a shovel on a camping trip. The saw works relatively well. It's just tough going because the handle is made for chopping on the blade side. Make no mistake, this isn't a jungle machéte. It's made for camping in North American hardwoods & pine forests. So far, it excels at its intended use. The small knife in the handle sheath is nice for opening beers! I'm sure it would work well as a spear tip. I opened up the paracord and looped the small knife rear opening to the full tang rear of the machéte. Time will tell if the little knife cuts through the rubber handle. If so, I'll update the review. I'll also update the more I use it.The sheath and retention straps are superb. Hopefully the rivets are decent quality. I had to return the 1st order, because the package was busted, and the sheath hard plastic was cracked. The package was still busted on my replacement, but the sheath was okay.All I need now is a way to sharpen this tough, titanium bonded stainless steel.
