This is the heaviest-hitting Ontario fixed blade I have found. It is about the same length as their Marine Raider, but with more forward weight, and a better steel. The SP53 has a partial hollow grind. Ontario makes another version that has a full flat grind, the SP52. I chose the SP53 because it is slightly heavier, having more metal, and the bevel makes it stronger. The SP53 resembles such blades as the Ka-Bar Cutlass Machete and the Kershaw Camp 10 however, trust me, the SP53 is thicker/heavier built and the steel is better. This is a very tough knife. It is more of a knife than a machete, although in appearance it might resemble a machete, but if you compare it to other machetes it is in the super heavy weight class for it's size.
