Ontario Knife Heavy Duty Machete

Heavy Duty Field Machete

The Ontario Knife Heavy Duty Machete is a long-bladed chopping tool for clearing brush, cutting back vines and opening up overgrown trail. Ontario Knife Company is a long-running American cutlery maker, and this is a working machete with a plain profile and a closed D-guard handle that keeps your hand on the grip through a full day of swinging. It suits landowners, hunters, campers and anyone who needs to cut a path rather than look at one.

Features

• D-Guard Handle — A closed loop of handle material wraps around the back of the fingers, so the knuckles are covered and the machete is harder to lose mid-swing.
• Molded Black Grip — The one-piece molded handle has a ridged texture along the grip area for purchase when your hands are wet or gloved.
• Black Blade Finish — The blade carries a dark, non-reflective coating from the handle to the tip.
• Straight Spine Profile — A straight back and long, gently widening blade put weight forward toward the tip, which helps each chop carry through brush.
• Rounded Tip — The tip is cut in a broad curve rather than a sharp point, a common machete layout aimed at chopping instead of stabbing.
• Lanyard Hole — A small hole at the rear of the handle accepts a cord loop for a wrist strap or for hanging the machete on a hook.
• Maker's Markings — Ontario Knife markings are stamped near the base of the blade and on the side of the handle.

Built for Hard Use

The design is simple on purpose: a long blade, a full hand guard and a grip shaped for repeated swings. Nothing on it needs adjusting or maintaining beyond keeping the edge sharp. Keep it in a truck, a shed or a pack for clearing work around camp, property lines and hunting ground.
