Description

RCLIBERTARIAT: Libertariat Machete, USA Made

ESEE Knives

The Libertariat Machete was designed by John Armstrong and was designed specifically for Expat Knives (a division of ESEE Knives) as a lightweight, tropical environment survival knife. The Libertariat has returned after going away thanks to customer request. It is now proudly made in the USA. This version of the machete features a 9" SAE 1095 carbon steel blade, micarta handles and tan canvas sheath. The blade also has a 90° spine for ferro rod striking.

Expat Knives was born out of adventure. Adventures where the right tool can help squeeze every bit of enjoyment out of the experience, rather than detract from it. Tools that last as long as the memories. Tools that reflect life over the horizon: simple and timeless. Whether camping in the Himalayas, building a fire to stay warm in bombed-out bunkers in the Balkans, stalking elk along the Salmon River in Idaho, canoeing the Boundary Waters, or building a bamboo shelter in the Amazon, an adventure is there to be had. Whatever your adventure, Expat Knives are designed to enhance it, to enable you to thrive not only in the field but in the kitchen as well. And with any luck, you may just be fortunate enough for those two places to be one and the same. Get out there. Live life intentionally. Make memories. And take an Expat Knife with you.

It's good for the price, could just be a little bigger and heavier, but it's sharp enough and get's the job done. Have to wonder about limited to 550 run number, seem's to be a few reviews out there.

Fantastic chopper!
I am very impressed with this knife so far. It's a wonderful chopper, it's a lot lighter than I expected but still thicker than a machete. It is the perfect tool for stripping a branch. During some recent yard clearing work I used the Libertariat more than I used a hatchet. The steel is a great blend of sharp and tough for that sort of work. Would definitely recommend!
