  • Today marks the 24th anniversary of 9/11. I pray that this nation does not forget the loss of lives from this horrible event. Yesterday conservative commentator Charlie Kirk was murdered, and I worry about what is to come. Please love one another and your family in these trying times - Spark

COMPARISON REQUEST: BK9 Vs. Junglas Vs. Boomslang Vs. Machaxe

The Boomslang needs to be reprofiled to a slightly thinner and higher edge. Then it would probably out chop any of them.

But out of the box, I see it coming in last.

I have a lot of choppers (including Busses), but my best two (for using long periods of time) are probably the Condor Golok and the Fiddleback Forge 12" machete.

My Condor Bolo machete, once reprofiled, will simply be a beast.

Edited to add: The Bolo machete's potential is amazing. 15" blade / bolo sweet spot / 2.75" widest point / 1/8" thick / convex edge.
