Junglas or Lite Machete, which one for my area

I'm a big fan of a machete for any and all work involving wood, except for splitting large logs. I don't have a Lite Machete, but my Corona works awfully well. I'd love to own a Lite Machete, becase the handle looks MUCH more comfortable. But it is exceedingly hard to go with anything other than the Corona that I have. It has a LOT of miles on it. Not convexed; the only thing that has ever been put to the edge is a bastard file. So of the two options mentioned here, there can really be only one IMO. ;)
 
I've always been a fan of the Machete ever since I was about 6 years old and found an old one in my grandmother's garage. I was convinced at the time it was a sword and begged my parents to let me keep it. They conceded as long as I took care of it and never ran with it. I hacked at so much brush and deadwood with that thing that I ended up chipping and cracking it beyond repair. I've since replaced it with another "cheap" Machete about 10 years ago before I'd ever heard of Randall and company and before the lite Machete was available. That thing takes so much abuse and at a mere $20 I'd have never guessed it. I'm trying to decide right now if I "need" a Jungalas even though I think my machete can do everything I ask of it and more, I'm just concerned that my Izula, RC-4, and RC-6 might be getting lonely.
 
You dont really NEED it. As jeff and some others say, you only need one knife. The rest is just want and because its more handy ;)
