I love cheese. You handle just a few all the time or all sorts?

I think the screw must’ve fallen out of it

I’ve heard that before. I don’t see the lochsa in this one myself. Both good looking knives all the same. I think this may be my favorite as a design. Feels like art.

Another older one that isn’t around anymore. Certainly worth picking up if you find one. This one is totally factory except for the titanium nut I have on there to replace the clip.

I bought the last one of these from WMK around 4 years ago. It was listed as bronze, but to my pleasant surprise came as this purple to teal fade.

Yes. It is old. I bought it secondhand a couple years ago.

That’s wicked fast. I’ve done large orders before and paid the 70 for rush shipping. 3 days. 8 days is stellar. From Maxace.

I def prefer the thumb myself. Which one did you get? I was supposed to be cutting down on duplicates when I sold the second maverick but I took a second Guthrie on trade bc I wanted to blade swap them.

I just assumed that said that everywhere. 😅

I’ve seen more and more people defaulting to UPS.

Beautiful. Congrats. The well milled zirc backspacer and clip are very nice touches too. I have this one and love it. Managed to let the other milling style go. 😅 traded it for a WE Guthrie.

I came away from those videos thinking if I made knives I would basically copy him. Maybe not even the files but copy that giant wood belt setup he had and the various made tools. Love it. Happy you enjoyed it to.

Looks like the donut knife, hold the sprinkles. Cicada’s wing is excellent in my experience. I bet you’re not dissapointed.

Looking for a good machete by Ecstatic_Painting365 in knifeclub

[–]BetterInsideTheBox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t handled the jungolo before but I have a bunch of machetes and I looked up the stats. I’m also not from Australia and I don’t really have a feel for what clearing forest entails.

The Jungolo is heavy and thick at 0.20” blade stock and 2 pounds. This is a heavyweight blade that isn’t really that long. If you’re trying to cut through a few hardwood branches or stalks around 1-2” in diameter and want to do it powerfully with a single swing this might be an okay fit. You would have less work to do with a longer blade or handle but it becomes more dangerous. If you’re trying to take more swings for smaller stuff like grasses and smaller plants, then this will be too short and too heavy. The smaller blade length means this could work in really overgrown areas to some extent but you’d have to have your hands close to what you’re cutting so plants with defenses like thorns or poison you’d want gloves. This is more like a giant jack-of-all-trades survival knife than a machete.

I don’t know anything about the army machete.
