I love this sort of general overview with so many models out in front of us. You can really get a sense of scale for each one. Nicely done video gents.
I have 4 on the left (Makara x 3 and 1 x Yoshimi) and the one on the far right (Parang x 2). Love them all. Also gifted a cpupke of Parangs and an Aussie Army machete to friends. And Joe Flowers is a great designer 👍
@@trufflesufflephatboy3437 the edge retention is pretty good. The weight and thickness of the blade make it a little tougher to put the best edge on ( not like running over one of those 20 buck cheapo jobs with a half ass sharpener and getting it cleaned up quick) The blade length is nice, the weight is beefy and you know you won't end up shattering or bending it ,and it also comes with a nice leather sheath that has a belt loop swivel in it I'm going to pick up the Cold Steel Barong and see how it fares against the condor,but I can't recommend the Condor Barong enough
@@ThrobbingChomboni hell yea bro, you would you recommend honing the factory edge of like my tramontina's and cold Steel, in cold Steel I have the bolo and panga, my mother got me the panga you get to shaving hair soooooo easier, well I hope that barong brings you fun and enjoyment brother 😎
@@trufflesufflephatboy3437 you recommend the bolo? I really like the the shape and sheath the Schrade bolo has, plus the price is really nice. I've been looking at some custom stuff on EBay and I'm gonna replace the parang I gave away to a family member. ExGhurka Kukri House has some nice in-between blades. I got a HEAVY kukri with the more shallow bend and you can't beat it in most categories. Also, if you really dig thee Barong shape and can still find one I highly recommend the Blackhawk Tatang. It's my favorite blade in my collection. Cheers bro!
I'm a machete noob but I really like the quality look of Condor products. What would you suggest for general camping application 4 seasons in northern Canada that could also do brush clearing and trail clearing. Any advice appreciated.
The last one on the right, it is called the Bush craft parang it has been a woodsman favorite for over 20 years now. Convex grind cuts deep can be used almost like an axe. It has a molded handle that will never come loose, is light enough to use for hours. good for splitting wood, clearing brush, made at a great angle for chopping. I love mine. A lot of these other ones have a thicker heavier blades that will kill your wrist in no time. That and they have a less sharp grind to them, I love the convex grind of the bushcraft. Just my 2 cents 60yrs old and have been using blades for most of my life.
i just had bout the condor machete...im more impresded by the sheathe leather casing...the smell of the leather & double thickness of it & the stitch & button design makes u aporeciate it all the more....im giving myself a like on that cuz i had to put some thought n2it....they consider it a two handed machete...but i still look @ it as one handed ..gives u room to slide ur grip dwn abit when swinging @ yaupon bushes...(i hate those)...but it does have caffine properties that im just now aware of....i went off on a tangent...mybad...& the wood grip is smooth that u dont need any gloves to use it....which is a plus...& the thickness of the blade keeps it from bein woobly...& i tnk there r a few rune slots for it aswell to give u like +10 focus & agility...
I really need to see a video of that macayo machete, i bought it once on eBay and received the wrong the puring machete instead. One day ill probably do the machete myself
Man I would be awesome if Condor bring back the Barong Machete and it wqs probably the best of its type and especially for the price at that time . Good collection those are heavy duty machetes and not just brush clearing blade ,but for clearing brush you want anlight weight machete. Thise are very good quality by Condor Knife & Tool. ⚔️💯⚔️ 🤺
Tips on parang lenght selection. Fighting: When held against arm it shouldn't go past your elbow. Utility: When held downward shouldn't go lower than ankle. When I was a kid I sliced 3 of my toes. Yes we jungle walk barefoot.
Unsure what they claim but you can put a nail through it and attach it to a block of wood and use it like a leaver if you have a lot of simple but repetitive work to do. Some knives have the same feature for exactly this purpose.

I have the Village Parang and love it. It goes with me every time I go in the woods for a while.

Condor makes great stuff. I have the Condor Barong and it's an incredible piece!
I think condor has the most beautiful machetes how does the steel and edge hold ?

@@trufflesufflephatboy3437If you’re halfway competent at sharpening it never hurts to put a little love on a factory edge.
I like that shortest one. Great camp knife.
I have 3 of those... all great. The engineer bolo is a workhorse.
Wiseman is a great company to deal with, great prices and customer service,
I want to see these in action. Look forward to seeing not only how they cut, but if some feel better for chopping than others.
I have the Engineer Bolo. (Third from the right) It is a chopping machine!
Beautiful sight here !! #Condor
I have the Yoshimi and completely love it.
great rewiew, thank you so much! I want all of them! ))
Condor y imacasa lo mejor de centro América
That's a nice collection.
It might be useful to describe what each of these tools is designed to do. Maybe read up on that.
Just as all “survival” things - for imaginary activities in imaginary circumstances lok
I have the Mini Duku which is perfect

😅😮😢😂 is that donald duck talking lol
Can always tell a lot about someone who makes fun of others for things that they can’t help.
@@John5.56 laughing with you not at you. But my address is 420 high st longview TX 75603 if you don't like it come see me buddy
How much for the peacocks?
I never seen a machete that didnt have a full tang
their designs are a mixture of traditional and modern utilitarianism
What’s the hole for in the traditional machete?
Unsure what they claim but you can put a nail through it and attach it to a block of wood and use it like a leaver if you have a lot of simple but repetitive work to do. Some knives have the same feature for exactly this purpose.
3 swords 2 big choppers 2 trail clearing machetes and one sugar cane knife
It’s pretty self explanatory. They’re machetes Bradford.
Where's the Burmese Hunter?
I have the bushcraft parang.....handle is uncomfortable....wayyy to thick. Chops like a beast but meh.
How many guys with speech impediments am I listening to?
Cowndoowr
Insensitive smart asses.
Be nice if they sharpened them. Getting way too expensive. Are you just paying for the kool factor. My $18 one gets the job done.
Kinda accent is even 😂
