the saw is for notching . not cutting
seems you have the only review on it, have you tried stripping the paint off the blade and saw back to see if thats what they messed up?
I’m not limp wristed or weak, but I still think 36 ounces for a machete is too heavy. It looks cool and all just not my cup of tea.
Probably from a single block! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XmTY6-uL58Y
i love it!!
Say Heah Israel, it looks like it would make a good Summer Long Knife for going through brambles, and that spine could be used as marking trees ?
I love Estwing, this is likely pretty functional but Fugly…
Say Heah, I prolly would of got the Estwing Machete, as my Summer Long Knife just because it’s a Estwing, But I’m still happy with my Rodent Rucki and my Ka-Bar Johnson Adventure Parangatang, But I was at the H D and considering I didn’t have to pay shipping and had my choice out of the litter, I got a good Double Bit Hatchet at a pretty good price. I haven’t used it yet, But it’s a much heavier Double Bit than my 2Hawks, It came with a decent Sheath, but nothing to write home about, it’s a ballistic nylon with a plastic insert, not bad ?, But lately I’ve been paying attention to tge weight on hatchets/axe and there’s a time for them, Yrah, I’m actually impressed with it, Pictures don’t do it justice, After all, it is a Estwing, , ,
where do u get one or look at I am in alabama thanks
Rubber hammer handle on a machete makes me want to cry.
hmm interesting, never knew they had a machete. A saw that doesn’t saw? Why would they put that on there? Seems odd.
I never knew they made this. A refined or different version would be interesting.
i HAD BUYED ONE AND MY OPINION IS …NONONO GUYS I DONT LIKE THE CUT AND THE REACTION ON THE WOOD…IM SORRY.
Get a small precision file and sharpen up those saw teeth buddy!
I really like your vids, dont let a new fan down here bro with dull saw blades!!! lol
But seriously dude if you go and buy a small file for doing that sized work, on the finer side, and practice with it (USE TONS OF OIL ALSO!) on something else first to get the hang of it, then you’ll be able to sharpen those teeth, as well as any knife tip, axes etc etc.
Oh shit baby!!
Ive got both double bit axes, wooden handle and rubber on the other.
Both tomahawks too, the black one has found its way onto my combat pack.
And now you’ve just shown me my next new deer hacker!!! Lol
Right on bro!!!!
so I belive for 50 dollars your get a non functioning tool it to me is a disappointment a saw that don’t work the sharing surface is limited it chops u showed that I just think it’s not one of there better ideas and man what did you hit that took out the corner of your hatchet That makes ya think too great review I’m not trying to be mean just honest from observations Dan in ohio
awesome looking Machete….
They make a terrific hatchet .
well… it ain’t gonna win any beauty contests, that’s for sure.
Looks like it was designed by the CEO’s child.
USA USA USA USA USA USA USA USA
take the edge the full length of the blade and ditch the saw back and I’d buy 3. I love my Estwing tools, but that design looks like it was made to look cool instead of being useful.
USA based company, but does not say “Made in USA.”
Does the 36.3 ounces include the sheath?
looks like another POS that combines every feature that you would want to avoid and carefully deletes any useful attribute that would normally be appealing
you didn’t test the saw blade I’ve tested it on branches different sizes on pine trees and cut just fine
Thanks for sharing this beautiful estwing product.
I’ll have to look around for one.
Btw, have you reviewed the Camilius Carnivore X or Conivore Xz yet ??
It has been improved. Actual Full Tang now. Aggressive saw on the back that chews up wood and Bone…
I wish they made the machete and the knife with their stacked leather handle.
Cool looking blade. I love machetes and other heavy chopping blades. I know alot of people are harping on the saw back feature as being useless but I am thinking it is more people not knowing what it is for. The Ontario SP8 machete has a similar blunted saw back too and it is for making notches in wood for shelter building and the like. My guess is the same was intended here. I am guessing as was mentioned by others though that the marketing department got it wrong on the advertising.
man that thing is ugly
I dunno. looks pretty beefy to me. it didn’t break.so, yeah . it’s ugly but funcional.
looks like the handle spins in the hand some?
where can this Machete be purchased at? I could use one if it was a few inches longer.
Notches on the spine absorb the impact when chopping
This feel more like a bowie knife than a machete, maybe it can be used as a cleaver too…I have to buy it.
atrocious!
different good review
Estwing has some fugly stuff, but you just can’t beat them for quality and price. There tomahawks for durability are right up there with anything on the market 5 times the price and I’m sure this machete will be the same. But there just so dam ugly.
It is a great big forged carbon steel bladed knife. I think them calling it a machete is odd. For the money it is a good US made blade.
Yes sir!
If your buying Estwing you know you have a rugged long lasting tool. Hands down favorite company for axes and hammers. I never knew they sold knives and machetes!
Machetes are supposed to be used on smaller, live plant life, saplings, undergrowth, etc.
I love the big USA on the blade. MURICA!!!!!!!!!!
gee, I can’t tell where its made .. what brand was it ?..
I wouldn’t have guessed that as a machete. It looks more like a big bowie sans clip point. It would cost them less to manufacture without the useless sawback that does nothing. That looks like someone from marketing thought it up.
that wood is hickory
Wow where do you find all these knives lol…. 1055 is some tough-ass steel. What’s up with that stupid ricasso! i would much rather the edge run close to the guard and this would go a long way toward making this a good one tool option for woods survival, right? Thank you
I like it. The handle looks odd but I swing an Estwing hammer all day and it’s comfortable so what the hell. I would immediately grind off that damn saw though, you’d think that if they took the time to include it, they’d make it a nice one not that useless crap.
Would’ve been better without the back saw & long finger choil.
