18" Machete

The handle's grip feels solid even when my hands are sweaty from yard work, and it sliced through overgrown blackberry vines without binding up. Exactly what I needed for clearing the back lot this weekend.

Cleared a thick patch of blackberry vines behind the shed in about twenty minutes, which honestly surprised me for a hand tool. The handle stayed comfortable even after all that swinging, no blisters.

The 18-inch blade makes quick work of the blackberry vines taking over my back fence, way faster than the loppers I was using before. Handle feels solid in hand even when things get sweaty. Cleared a whole overgrown corner in one afternoon without needing to resharpen.
