Very helpful! I appreciated the comments about keeping aware of the arc as you're striking downwards. It's easy for me to get complacent!

I'd hazard a strong guess that it's an 18" Outback.

Yep, one of my favs of all time. Even with the hole

Great Video!!! I have been looking to get a machete for a while now to replace the old rusted up one I got when I was about 11. I don't mean to hijack the thread but what should I get? I have noticed that 18" is Jeff's favorite length, but what about brand and handle shape for comfort? I love cutting stuff up its one of the things that really takes stress out when I need some help.

I suggest Condor.

Quick newbie question. Why does the machete seem to be more popular than a kukri?
