Condor golok machete

You're considering a $65 machete? Quality: The quality of materials and craftsmanship Condor puts into the Golok are great. Thick blade stock, distal taper, very good factory edge, great sheath. As a tool, though, I didn't like it, both for its heaviness and weird ergos. Due to the thick tang and ch...

It's just ok. The biggest issue is the handle, it's a little small and to easy for it to slip out of your hand, especially if your hand gets wet or sweaty. I added a lanyard and wrap it around my hand to stop losing control. But that limits your hand movement and you can no longer do precise short f...

I would have kept, and I'm sure loved this machete. Unfortunately, there was wood chipping around the lanyard hole. Honestly it wasn't terribly bad, and I could have lived with it, but I'm very picky and for the money I feel it should have better standards for quality. I contacted the seller who adv...

Fit and finish is really nice. High quality blade, sheath and handle. That said, this is a very thick and heavy blade so it's not something you want to use for hours at a time. But my main complaint is that the handle, although beautifully made, is so thick that it's uncomfortable to use. I am 6'4" ...

This thing is made well and heavy duty. The problem for me is I find that I have to grip it too hard or it wants to slide out of my hand. That, and the weight, make it tiring to use. Being so thick, I think, keeps it from slicing as well as my other machete. It’s good for using like an axe, I suppos...

Beautiful tool! It feels as amazing to use as it looks. This is mostly highly rated for its great handle and condor’s durability. Downsides is it requires a lot of maintenance, and several tests with it, much cheaper machetes out performed it. I really wanted to like it cause its looks and the handl...

This tool is good quality, and the design seems nice, but really doesn't fit in

any of my wilderness tool kit. If you are buying this to use at home, great. I

purchased this as an alternative to a hatchet or large knife for wilderness use.

It can chop as well as a hatchet, and limbs better than a h...

It's good. It's even very good. It's just a little bit shorter and heavier than a regular machete, and that's good because when I'm clearing a path through heavy brush, I don't have enough room for a full swing with a long machete. The walnut grip has a bulb on the end which magically transforms thi...

For people who like knives this makes an EXCELLENT gift! When you pick it up, it feels well balanced. The blade is full tang and pre-sharpened. Not sure what steel it's made with, but it appears to be made in El Salvador. (Be sure to check other reviewers to see how the blade fares when clearing bru...

This machete is a piece of artwork as far as im concerned. Its got a great weight to it, so you know you're going to get some serious chopping power with each swing. It's extremely sturdy and you can tell its built to last. It came oiled and sharpened. Ready for use. There are absolutely no traces o...
