Known throughout Asia and Pacific Rim, the Bolo Machete features a "fat" point that shifts its weight forward where it can do the most good when heavy chopping or slashing is called for. It's an excellent survival tool and will open a coconut or chop down a tree with equal ease.
Bolo Machete Rocks
I bought two of these a couple years ago. I am a land surveyor and volunteer with Search and Rescue so I have cut a lot of brush with these. Easy to sharpen, well ballanced, the coating keeps the rust off till you wear the coating off as I have and they are nice and light to carry around. Only change I would make would be to make the handle more tacky as wet conditions make for a slippery handle.
