Try the Cold Steel kukri machete.1050 carbon steel, and by far one of the strongest, yet lightest kukri's i've worked with.It retails at around $15-$20, but I think you'll be impressed.Also, if you're not opposed to spending a litte more cash ($50-$60) check out www.khukurihouseonline.com.

I will second the Cold Steel Kukri machete. Very cheap and the for the price, the sheath isn't that bad either.
I like Kukri's and have many.
$60-$150
HI and KH are nice, but $$$. I have many of these!
$35-$40
Atlanta Cutlery has some authentic new kukri is made by the official government contractor, Windlass Steelcrafts® (India for the 100,000 Indian Gurkhas), for issue to the Gurkha's Assam Rifles Regiment for about $35 or a Genuine Gurkha Regimental Kukri for $40.

I have both of these and these are good for the money.
$9-$25
For less these Look OK, but are most likely made in India or Pakistan. I do not have these, but look like OK beater knives.

The CS machete kukri is a decent machete that seems to enjoy some of the attributes of the kukri shape. However, if you only want an inexpensive head lopper, the CS Two Handed machete may do the job better and for a bit less.
