December 6, 201015 yr i modified this from a corona machete back in 07 as a work horse for camping and cutting down briars, its about 28 in. overall. the handle and guard are from vine maple, i was tired of briars slipping down the blade and gouging my hands, so i improvised, its 1050 steel, and very thin. im afraid this is the only pic i have of it, its not very pretty, but ive been cleaning and filing it very slowly over the past week or so and its looking beatutiful again. hope u can enjoy it.
December 7, 201015 yr Best thing I found for clearing the blackberries out of the yard was a Black & Decker Brush Hog. Them thorns made a mess of me when I used the machete Nice blade.
December 7, 201015 yr Author lol ive used motorized equipment to to clear briars and brush but prefere machetes, been using them since i was a kid, besides its great for brushing up on my sword skills. and thanks, its not pretty but it really is great.
