Buying an affordable machete from Hunting Camping Deals is sure to be well worth the money as its uses are nearly endless in any outdoor situation.

Buying the Best Machetes

A quality machete can be used as the perfect survival tool in nearly any situation. If you need a sharp blade to chop through thick brush or split firewood, a machete can help. Machetes are also effective knives to kill, gut, filet, skin, and butcher fish and other game. When you are buying a machete, there are a number of factors that you should consider to ensure that you are buying the best machete for your needs. The following are some important features to consider in order to ensure you are buying the best machete.

Machete Blade Material

Machete blades can be made from a number of materials including carbon steel, stainless steel, and high carbon stainless steel. Stainless steel blade machetes require little maintenance and are easy to resharpen. However, these blades are softer than carbon blades and the edges dull more quickly. Carbon steel blades are harder than stainless steel machetes and retain their sharpness for far longer. However, carbon steel machetes are more difficult to sharpen. High carbon stainless steel blade machetes combine the benefits of rust resistant stainless steel with the durability of carbon steel. A downside to these types of machetes is that they are generally a more expensive option.

  • Cane Machetes

Machete Handle Material

The material from which a machete handle is made will help determine its durability as well as the overall performance of the knife. Most of the machetes sold at Hunting Camping Deals offer durable rubber or polypropylene plastic handles made to last with minimal maintenance, however there are a number of other commonly used materials as well. The following are some of the commonly used machete handle materials.

  • Wood handled machetes offer a good grip but require higher maintenance to keep in good condition.
  • Molded plastic machete handles are easy to maintain and inexpensive but may be slippery when wet.
  • Stainless steel machete handles offer a stunning appearance but are heavy, more expensive, and can be very slippery.
  • Rubber handled machetes offer the best grip but can become worn over time.
