Came unsharpemed due to paint or powder coating covering entire blade...took some time to sharpen..took it out and gave it some rigorous testing..all in all it preformed well besides one tiny chip in the blade...a little vibration In the handle and would recommend gloves as the handle is a little rough but it's one heavy ass blade and was using as an axe taking 3inch wedges out of some tree stumps I was removing..I was impressed don't thing it will hold an edge as well as it should but I'd recommend it for the price for sure.

The words "Made in South Africa" had me a little worried at first but aside from a few cosmetic blemishes this machete is really as good as it gets for under $40. Really it is a decapitation sword masquerading as a machete! Great for chopping or batoning through wood; works like an oversized axe and the two handed handle is great for extra power. I went chopping at some logs like a maniac when I got this and it I really very durable. Will chop right through large femur bones or a hockey stick with one swing. If you want a Hulk-like chopping instrument then this is your choice.

Excellent heavy duty chopper. Like the weight forward design that really gets the chopping done. Cold steel products never disappoint. Well made and comes with a great sheath. Highly recommend!!

This appears to be a well made machette, but it had to be sent out to be sharpened. It was very dull when it arrived, which was very disappointing. It wouldn't cut anything.
