Machete is made from 1075 steel, with proper and traditional machete heat treatment performed by craftsmen in El Salvador. Fiddleback Forge has designed the handle to give protection for your fingers that you won't find on most machetes. This allows us to bring the edge all the way down the blade, so the knife can do bushcrafting chores, such as notching with ease. In addition, the khukuri style bulge in the handle allows for chopping with the hand in two positions using varying amount of wrist snap.
A top quality, leather sheath with belt loop IS included.
