There were screws there from the beginning, two other machetes I have also has screws holding the handle, so it works. I used it a day after this video was made and the handle IS GREAT and BETTER than it was when I purchased it.. thanks for watching and your comment.. IF anything happens with that handle I’ll post it
@@HoaxHoax-d5f yes.. if I do this it will definitely be longer with some kind of flip on the end.. this is way more comfortable than the one that was on it also I can grip it better.. I use it probably twice a month with no complaints yet .. check out some of my other machete videos if you don’t mind.. thanks
Please explain yourself... all I did was change the plastic handle to a wood handle... would it be safer if I put the plastic handle back on with two screws holding it? I’m curious now... thanks for watching and explain

What I like to do is draw a stencil of the plastic handle onto the wood then shave and sand it down, make sure it's even and fits your hand well
Thanks for the comment and sharing your plans… thanks for watching
NICE JOB BUDDY

jesus man thats rough
@@DemoMan-fq9zi thanks
Using screws insted pins is not a good idea. The handle isn't great. Looks like an unfinished work.

Axe handle would be better.
@@HoaxHoax-d5f that handle is still holding up.. if I do replace it I might go with a axe handle or something similar.. thanks for watching

It's the way the handle is shaped it gives a better swing, much like a parang handle. And its more comfortable.

עבודה ערבית.
Thanks for your comment
Uma porcaria!
Thanks for the comment.. however, I think this was the best decision I made to make this machete better than what it was...
This is a very bad joke. You will hurt yourself.

I also used that machete to trim some crepe myrtles this morning... worked fine, if something goes wrong with this machete I’ll post the problem
Where was the joke?
