    If you want to know if a blade is useful, try openly carrying it around town and see if anyone notices.🤣

    I used this machete today to try cutting some over growth over my driveway. It was all just small branches under 3/4 inch and some vines. I gave up on this machete. It was like trying to chop through a tractor tire with a gummy worm.
    I pulled out my old half rusted machete I got from a yard sale 20 years ago and it made short work of the over growth even though it was pretty dull.

    Very handy for the money … I believe that hole maybe to hang it in a shed ? Maybe I’m wrong

      I thought maybe it was for a lanyard. It looks like it has enough rivets to hold the handle on.

    That little hole is the lanyard hole, just in the wrong part of the handle. Zombie-Go-Boom tested this out, was barely able to damage a zombie head, and one of the crew was able to bend the blade with their bare hands.

    Worked for Jason Voorhees. He knew a lot. Just passing along.

    Is it a great blade? No.
    Is it better than having no blade at all? Yes.
    Can you do much better if can afford it? Also yes.

    This is actually a really good blade

    For a cheap blade not too bad. But I’d spend more and get a good one.

      It's for "cigarettes" so you don't burn your lips

    Made.a.video by making a bush knife out of it.
    Put it to the test and came out good.

    It looks very lightweight.

      If you are using it for any length of time, thats actually a bonus...
      I have a couple of extra thick stainless steel machetes f(or acidic woods/ brush clearance...)
      They are NO fun if you need to use them for a few hours on a job.
      ounces make pounds... and pounds matter when you're swinging.

    Bamboo?

      Japanese knot weed. Bamboo's ugly step sister. Nasty stuff. Parts of it, at certain stages, are edible though; so there's that.

    I think you would have done better just swinging a shovel man

    Wrap the handle in hockey tape.Machetes are supposed to be light for all day work.They flex to cut though vines ect.Sheath is junk.Great for $5
