Cold Garden & Camp Machete
The Cold Steel Grass Machete looks kind of funny but it is actually based on an age-old style of field tool that got it's origins in Africa. This Garden and Camp Machete is a cross between a machete and a sickle.
It makes short work of clearing brush and bushwhacking and you don't have to bend over so much. You can get the Cold Steel Garden & Camp Machete right here at OsoGrandeKnives.com.

TOPS Knives Machete .230
TOPS' good friend and well-known designer, outdoorsman and writer, Joe "Shangoman" Flowers, collaborated with TOPS shop manager, Leo "The Lion" Espinoza on the design for a new machete. After much deliberation, they finally came to a positive agreement with the design and practical field ability; the MACHETE .230 was born.
Vigorous testing in a wide variety of terrains has proved the Machete's superior field performance. To compliment the unique point on the blade and handle design, TOPS Knives custom built a ballistic nylon sheath with 2 separate (flap and buckle closure) accessory pockets. These pockets can hold an array of small tools. Get it here.
