That's a sweet piece of work! How did I manage to miss that one, and what is it?

Yeah, he's not doing long blades anymore due to injury isn't he? Great snag!

what's the actual dimensions (including blade thickness) on that, where is the balance, and what do you like about it? I am working on doing a second machete "model" in the straight edge "cleaver clip" style.
Does anybody have a comparison of a fiddleback machete and say a 12" tramontina machete?
Pict, I saw the vids you've done concerning that machete, good stuff:thumbup:
I've never seen a Tram with that type of handle though, I know the micarta wrap is custom, but the actual shape of the wooden handle is new to me (and looks more comfortable than the Tram handles I'm used to). Is it a model that's only available in South America? Or is it a stock handle you sanded the crap out of?
I will as soon as Fiddleback sends me a free one for having...I mean testing.

Would that Fiddleback machete be considered a Barong then?
An Ontario and an old Collins I modded/butchered:

This collection will grow by one as soon as Andy starts taking orders for his machetes. That 16" is the nuts.
