The South African ones are better than Wal*Mart, and easily found, but as an experienced Machete Monkey (tm) I don't think they're worth it as compared to the Chinese ones, but the blade stock on those ones are a bit thick for my taste.
However, if you really want a nice machete go with either Martindale (hard to find in the US, though. They're British and don't seem to export much of their line) and Condor, which is my preference. They're about twice as expensive, but five times the tool.
