looking for a new bush tool. i like this design anyone got one. whats your thoughts?
 
I like the looks of it. Off Grid had a chopper comparison it did well. But I don't think it was too indepth. I think the curved blade would lend itself well to more tasks. The point seems to be lined up center handle for other less bushcrafty chores too.


I'm with you, I like it.
But no personal experience.

It looks good on the design. It is as if the Parang Chandung and Santoku made a baby.

I got one a couple of weeks ago and did some chopping...brichwood trees over the trail kinda thing....I have a size large hand....the blade takes a big bite of wood...I found that the birds head handle got in the way, the edge of my hand while swinging and chopping would rub on the bird's head..could just be the way I handled it but maybe with more practice I can adjust my grip.....the machete looks awesome and I think that the point will come in handy for other types of cutting...I need more time with it...I think it's a lot of knife for the price...
