Cold Steel Thai Machete Knife with Sheath

If your not using this machete with two hands then of course its going to twist and possibly bend. Its like using a katana, yes you can use one hand but if you actually know anything about weapons..... just use two hands:)

Like all the other Cold Steel Machetes I was NOT disappointed. Solidly built, well balanced, it comes very sharp. Not your ordinary machete.

Pluses..Good length. Great balance. Sheath's ok needs a little WD40 or a smear of mineral oil inside to aid in the removal and returning to sheath. Only let down, the Cold Steel name known for sharpness is grossly missing. Which is really surprising because all the other products I bought were shareable sharp. The only reason for a four star rating.

I bought four machetes in the same order. This is the only one I am sending back. I took all our at the same time to test. This is the only one the bent. It is hard to stop it from twisting. The handle is round. I also got the double deal with the saw back striaght and the small kukree. I also got the large kukree with finger guard and saw back. All cut great out of the box except this one. It also cost the most the toughest was the $9.99 large kukree.
