Honshu Boshin Kukri (High Carbon Steel)

Razor sharp. Well made, and balanced. Light weight but very strong

I like looking for quality knives and matches. This one came across in my search fot a good emergency kit machete. This one cuts through grass, bushes, brushes, plants like nothing. Goes through like a hot knife through butter. Weight is good balance is perfect. With a emergency kit this is Much better than the D3 steel one. Don't be fooled by steel nopes retoric. Every time i research this machete for use in the Forest or Woods, jingle Etc. its all very highly reviewed anf recommended. The 7cr13mov steel is heat tempered extremely well. Even a 1095 machete or an expensive $500 machete or a $200 esee machete or knife can break rather easily with a bad heat treatment. These have consistently been excellent!!!! I recommend this machete for jungle, woods desert or tall Grass Land areas of the world. Great machete and with gloves no Real blisters or hot spots. If an issue use Wilson wrap to smooth the rough areas of the hilt. Perfect balance and an amazing chopper. Highly recommend!!

The sheath is very defective and will hold the knife in

The materials and workmanship are top notch. The stainless steel blade is1/4" thick and razor sharp. The leather sheath is beefy and well made. I would have expected to pay double the asking price for a kukri this nice! Look no further.

Handle is uncomfortable. It is too heavy. Feels like a generic, imported piece of, wall art!

Not one you want to carry in the city but makes a great survival knife while hunting. Fits the hand well and holds a edge very well.

I got this for yard work and some clearing of bushes and brushes in some of my family and friends yard and maybe for some camping in the future. I only paid 60 something dollars for it...the reason I'm taking off a star is because the sheath design could be a little better....this is purely for machete purposes...not Chopin thick wood so be careful not to hit anything right against tip of the blade or it will break. It comes very sharp so be careful with it.

Awesome
