Great product. Got here in a timely manner. Had to tightened the handle to the blade (that was slightly loose). Blade very sharp. But still an excellent buy!
This does have the look of quality steel. However, this is not the same quality of steel like 4440 stainless steal that it claims to be. For the price it is of quality you would expect for something for China. The carry case is not what I expected either two of the rivets feel out when opening the machete.
So far I have not found any flaws in the blade and the machete is well balanced. After sharpening the machete I used it to hack through some tall weeds and brush on my property. I was very satisfied.
