I use it on my 20 acre property. Cuts vines, trees, weeds. Truly a multi tool. Sturdy, stout and razor sharp!

Description
BYX11716PHC: Condor 1167 Baryonyx Double Edge Machete
Baryonyx Knife Company
The Baryonyx Machete is the culmination of years of experience and careful design refinement. The Baryonyx (meaning "Heavy Claw") is one of the few machetes on the market designed specifically for use in the North American temperate zones. The stock edge is tuned for rough "survival"-type use and performs quite well under a litany of chores in the backwoods or around the campsite. This machete was featured for a large spread in Knives Illustrated and is manufactured by Condor Tool & Knife in El Salvador.
Intended as a versatile do-all, the tool is loaded with features that quickly become apparent in use. The primary edge is used for the bulk of your general chopping tasks and features a continuous curve to the edge for rocking or drawing cuts. The back hook gives a sickle like blade for cutting grasses, brambles, woody stemmed plants and any other target that would be prone towards slipping off the edge of a conventional blade. The bifurcated tip allows for a usable point for detail work, a striking zone for batoning or a handhold for draw/push-knifing, and acts like an extension of the arm for pushing brush out of the way. The symmetrical handle allows either edge to be used in the forward-facing position depending on the needs of the situation and is long enough to be used two-handed if desired. Comes with large lanyard hole to allow you to add one for safer handling and includes a high quality nylon sheath.

Do not buy
The design is the biggest flaw with this "machete". If it is an attempt to improve or even copy the old woodsmans pal the execution is poor. It lacks balance. The handle feels and functions like it was an afterthought. Just get a woodsmans pal.

Fit's the bill
Most of our property is wooded with a lot of yaupon underbrush. We are building a trail system and the standard machetes and small camp axes were not cutting it for me (no pun intended). The Baryonyx Machete is the right tool for bushwhacking an cutting the initial path through the brush. Works flawlessly in trimming small branches that encroach into the existing trails. I recommend putting a wrist strap on the handle before use. The Baryonyx Machete is very heavy on the end. A paracord or ranger band wrap will be added to the handle as well. Order processing was fast & efficient.
