Hawke said he actually used a cheap machete he picked up in Southeast Asia because machetes frequently break or get lost and he just happened to like the style and weight, but he said the one used on the show is actually too heavy for normal use. His recommendations are Cold Steel's Kukri for woodland, their double edge machete for general survival and their heavy metal for jungle or light metal when a lot of cutting is expected. This is a part of an artical on this website. http://www.incredible-adventures.com/newsletter/newsletter037.html
It's certainly NOT cheap as machetes go .. it's a HIRO (made in Japan) ... here are some pics of my own...
