Machetes 3: Types of Machete

[@DingaLingu]

The one with the blue handle, ive had it over 10 years and it has served me well. I swear by it.

[@collinm9469]

Fun fact- in Jamaica they call a machete a cutlass

[@zeeqwan6477]

In Liberia as well

[@ArfurFaulkesHake]

@@zeeqwan6477 Naturally, since the Machete evolved from the Cutlass. And a guardless Cutlass is pretty much the same as a Machete.

Literally every Caribbean country calls it cutlass

That curved pole machete looks very useful to me. I can think of lots of work around here I could do with that one. 👍🏻

[@blaccsilverstaff5484]

What does the curve mean

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

I got it on Amazon, and Smokey Mountain Knife Works also sells it. It was very fun to throw, although the tang eventually ripped and tore itself free from the handle from throwing.

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

Awesome, Machetes 4 is already done and coming soon!

[@budthecyborg4575]

4:33 I keep looking at the fancy new Machete/Bowie hybrids when I realized I still have the old 14" Barong which is both very pointy and very long. I want to say I wish Condor would update this design but the original was almost the pinnacle of economy and utility.

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

Yes, any of the hilt-tang machetes mounted on a 6 foot spear shaft would be insane. I also have a Cold Steel Boar Spear.

[@rockymountainlockpicker9606]

I’ve got a 22” machete mounted to a 5’ maple shaft. Use it for clearing brush and briars

[@garynaccarto8636]

I definantly have come across machetes that are difinantly not traditional machetes in fact I actually have this one machete that resembles an over sized bowie knife.

[@slaughterhound8793]

I've bought two "machetes" through the years. One a classic but cheap Latin style a picked up at the local Harbor Freight store for next to nothing since I was helping out my cousin by clearing out brush on land she inherited when her father died. The other, though marketed as a "machete", in my opinion feels more like a dedicated weapon, that being Cold Steel's "Smachet" model that I ordered from them. In style it resembles the Barong that you featured in this video, except it is also sharpened from the tip to about 1/3 of the way back towards the hilt on the spine side of the blade.

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

Thanks, Wolf

[@Azomorat]

Thanks to your videos i now own a condor pack golok, and im very happy with it, will most likely buy more of those condors you have tested.

What is the machete on the far left with the blue dot on the handle

[@MadSmokerBBQ]

Great collection. Didn't know I have a couple old Pangas I found in my old shed.

[@FastActionBlades]

I guess that is better than a clean break inside the handle. That's what my MTECH Kukri did to me. Thanks man.

[@garynaccarto8636]

It seems like the terms Golok and Parang tend to be used interchangibly quite a bit.

[@GameHunterMaster]

WeAllJuggleknives, have you ever thought about purchasing the KA-BAR Swabbie? I have seen the viciousness that that blade can dish out and it is a blade worth adding to a collection and reviewing.

[@tim777us]

I have a Cold Steel Spear Point Machete. Any info on the origin/background of this tool?

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

That is actually one of the best Cold Steel machetes, I have the 18 inch model. They really should bring it back, excellent budget sword.

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

It is basically a mini machete, it's low quality compared to knives it's size but it's fine as a small light machete.

[@faridkazem6722]

What is this machete called? I forgot, I own one and it has a cane like handle on it, the blade is long.

[@johnnyloveit901]

What kind os machetes were used in the movie Apocalypse Now?

[@Nonamenomad14]

have you seen the tops machete or the fiddle back forge machete?

[@bloodydishtowel]

Could you either do a review on the kabar komodo (the blade shape intrigues me) or just give me your opinion? Also the kershaw oso sweet/tremor and the spyderco tenacious, I just got back in my financial groove and these will be my first purchases in months and I'd like an opinion, thanks iz

[@77MRVIC]

VERY COOL COLLECTION

[@mrtheblr]

Grew up in Hawaii, been using a cane machete all my life. I thought that was the normal type of machete for the longest time

[@michaelorlow4951]

Do you know of any high quality, inexpensive machetes/ short swords that could work as a ninja/ ninjutsu sword?

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

Not really, because inexpensive machetes are a lot lighter and more flexible than a sword.

[@curt-oldskool9141]

Need every single one

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

The Komodo blade would be useful for draw cuts as a utility blade. Most knives, you use the belly of the blade for that, but with that shape, you can use the very end, so it is like the knife is functionally longer than a conventional shaped-blade of the same length. I have the Termor and Tenacious, both good, very sharp. Not sure about the Oso Sweet.

[@Tipee78]

Have you reviewed the martindale?

[@docleafman]

Another nice one!! I love some poor man swords. I've kind of been the market for a pole arm but can't find anything fitting. Do you thing the aranyik are the way to go??

[@Deafmonkey21]

What would you classify the Genesis and Condor Hog Sticker machete blade shape as? I've heard terms like "Feather Blade" applied to it but it's so rare that I remain unsure. Another (more famous example) would be the blade of Orcrist in Peter Jackson's "The Hobbit".

[@docleafman]

Yeah I really dig the CS spears but I'm going for something like a billhook or a glaive on a 3-4 ft shaft. The pra or the dao with some grinder work should fill the bill. "Need" it for hallways and small apartment clearing, walls are too thin for fire arms.

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

Well played, well played

[@375Cheytac]

Hey there! Hope you get this notification. Have you seen the TOPS Cuma Kage? It seems like it checks all the boxes for the PERFECT bushcraft blade. 24” overall, 1/4” thick, 15.5” blade. Would love to hear your opinion of it!

[@valentinejules8672]

I love this guys

[@Luvloot]

What style would you recommend for more of a slashing purpose? and also why would you want the blade to curve away since it would make for a longer swing?? if you know. i only ask because i see that some do.

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

+Cameron Phare - Latin style or Panga type machetes would be best for slashing. If a blade is curved backward, like a scimitar or a katana, it forces you to turn into the target to keep the edge in contact as you are simultaneously drawing the blade across, so this more complicated motion is good for slicing off limbs or slicing enemies in half.

[@Deafmonkey21]

Thank you. I'm looking for something with a bit more steel in its construction and a two-handed grip, so maybe I'll look more at cutlass type blades.

[@Jack-ny4vu]

The machete is one of the most useful tools I own. I have two. A Latin machete and what I learned from this video is a panga machete. I use the panga one to kill chickens and the Latin one I use to cut branches off trees

[@gabrielbibliotecaj1346]

That Ouutback condor machete. I don´t know... to me is just a latin machete with a drop point. When I think of a bolo, I usually think in a blade more curve and that widens a lot towards the tip, almost looking like an extra tip.

[@Musikministeren]

can you tell me what kind of machete jason uses in friday the 13th part 6...???

[@Divine_Serpent_Geh]

Michael Petersen Jason has always used a Latin Machete.

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

Probably a traditional Golok or Barong if the pommel hooks.

[@tomastylecek7209]

can u discuss metal and lasting

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

Well most Condor and Imacasa use 1075 carbon steel, which can rust, so it must be dried out and oiled after use. Some Condors do use 420HC, which is stainless, and more resistant to corrosion.

[@duartemonteiro2452]

Cane machetes are used for obnly canes , or can they be used for other things?

[@Azzo99]

I live in QLD in Australia, where we grow heaps of sugar cane. I have a traditional and cane machete. The cane machete I have is a thinner blade to cut easier through the cane without butchering it. It also gets a nice edge due to how thin it is. Hope this helps

[@NorwegianKnifeDude]

I very much like this series!

[@kickorybot]

Awesome vid man

[@TheHuckish]

every farm in the Midwest has 3- 4 sometimes dozen are more . Lot of these are very old black smith made . Out of them a strait blade narrow at grip graduating to a flat end 3-6 inches wide .no curve at all for easier sharping and more weight at the tip. Some were useless,others could level 3 inch hickory with a single hit.

[@dandanutz777]

hi.i have a tapanga .from tramontina producer and the handle feels big, slippery in my hand...causing great discomfort when I cut something...what to do to prevent this? thanks

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

I would wrap the handle in racket tape, Wilson or Slazenger brand, from sporting goods stores.

[@micheletennis87]

Hello, I would like to know who in your opinion is the best machetes on the market day, today. I'm looking for a machete that is good in the use of the machete but it can also be useful for breaking wood for the fire and quite heavy work, where do you recommend?

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

For heavy work you want Aranyik Machetes from Thailand.

[@micheletennis87]

Ciao, would like to ask your advice because I want to make a more powerful possibilile and excellent quality cutting sets so that long hard me, I would take a compact knife (but robust and reliable) and a larger (machete) needed in severe environments, that in addition to machetes function also let me split the wood for the fire or making a shelter. For the compact knife (blade on 10/11 cm) it is undecided whether it is best stainless steel or carbon steel? I propose tropongo three models and tell me what you think is better: Esee 3 steel 1095, Lionsteel M4 steel M390 or Fallkniven F1 VG 10 laminate. Let me know you which is the best choice. For the good quality machete seem the Ontario Bar in 1095 and the Ka steel, but specifically I do not know which one to choose, you have one in particular that you would recommend? Let me know which two tools would fall your choice, thank you very much Michael.

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

I would pick the Fallkniven F1, I like the grind and it is a good slicer, and it will resist rust the best. For the machete maybe Condor Warlock.

[@gusburnett6391]

I would like a machete able to just be an all rounder, but especially in clearing thicker branches, brambles etc and well as a bit of wood work, such as whittling. But if that isn't possible I also have another very good knife which I can use for more precise stuff, so it doesn't have to necessarily be a all in one. Ideally a low ish price, so what would you recommend?

[@gusburnett6391]

Aswell as this, what would the hawkchete, particularly the cold steel tan to be used for?

[@gusburnett6391]

I was thinking about Kukri's but honestly I have no idea 😂

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

Some really popular ones are the Woodsmans Pal and the Kershaw Camp 10, maybe one of those?

Would need something long like a spear, so I guess the cutlass machete since it is one of the longest and not excessively light. But it won't do anything unless it hits some small vital spot like through the eye or heart but I don't think a bear would stand still long enough to allow that lol.

[@mrblisterfist]

[@grigoriyefimovichrasputin7897]

They should put more of a cross guard on machetes because i have cut my hand before from my hand slipping on to the blade and so have my friends.

[@Darkwolf-777bud]

I bought a condor Bowie machete. Not something I recommend. It is not balanced well at all. Almost every hit glances off just due to the geometry of the blade. I have a cold steel Latin machete that after being resharpened has not ceased to amaze. Recently ordered a could steel 24 inch Latin with hand guard and a panga also from cold steel. You just can't go wrong with their products imho. Their cheap and if they don't come as sharp as you eat just tune them up yourself and you have a very reliable tool. Question though. Do you think I will have better chopping power/leverage from a 24 inch machete than I did with my 18 inch one or do you think that the length is probably going to result in less chopping power? Cause I figured it would give it more but I'm not sure since it's too long it might not carry force the same..

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

The longer machete will have more power if you hit near the end of the blade, because it has more time and distance to accelerate, and it has more mass. Force = Mass X Acceleration :]

[@WeAllJuggleKnives]

I'd call the Hog Sticker a variation of a Cutlass Machete, maybe the Genesis, too. Anything pirates would find useful in close combat can be stretched to Cutlass :]

[@alistercade]

Ah, the condor cutlass machette, my favorite blade. I cant get enough of its smooth slicing and fast strikes. Its so light, yet strong enough to cut almost anything in your path in the woods, aside from large trees mind you lol. Love it as a home defense weapon, let the zombies come, i know what im grabbing :P. Im also thinkingof getting the immacasa condor machete 33", what are your opinions on it as a defensive weapon as well as a tool?

Mawo Duffer struggle with what? Please elaborate.

[@comicbookguy2326]

Mawo Duffer why

[@Divine_Serpent_Geh]

Comic Book Guy The teeth on the back of the machete are created by taking metal out of the spine of the machete. A machete is generally going to be used in chopping and high impact cuts, this removal of metal on the spine due to the saw teeth weakens the integrity of the machete overall. Stress from repeated impacts builds much easier where those saw teeth are, and can possibly snap the blade. They look cool, but I wouldn’t buy a machete with a saw-back.
