I've had a chance to play around with one and I must say it's a pretty sweet tool. Nice sheath too.
It's the size of a largish knife, but shaped to present the sweet spot of the edge to whatever you're chopping at a really efficient angle, so your wrist doesn't suffer much impact.
It's a brute which is efficient for chopping stuff as opposed to fine cutting. For clearing vegetation, like a machete is good for, you might find that making a more acute edge will help it slice them vines and such.
I would recommend this knife to mountain bikers and the like, as it's pretty light, has a great sheath and will help you maintain your trails. For anyone else, it's a great chopper to accompany your smaller bushcraft knives.

n this one Kershaw.
PS- Military boot knife is a great one too!
