Gerber 22-41576 Gator Machete with Sheath Reviews
The case is nice, the handle is nice, but the steel inthe blade is the worst. This is not a tempered steel blade. If I could give it 1/10 of a star I would do that. Went out to clear a thicket. First few swipes the cuting edge bent in 2 places. Gerber you can do better than this. Saw it not that sharp either.
Don't waste your money here. I was hoping for a machete that would hold an edge longer. I have a cheap machete that I've been using for years to keep my ATV trails clear around my property. It's a joke in fact. I was extremely disappointed with this one. I've seen $5 machetes that were far sharper than this.
I've bought many items from Gerber and I've been happy with all of them. There are better machetes elsewhere. I got one that won't take an edge at all. It wouldn't cut weeds consistently much less brush.
Gerber Gator machete is a great value for the money. Highly recommended by someone who has been using machetes in the brush since age 12. Not sure about the saw feature on the backside but it does the job on brush and saplings up to 1 inch with ease. Balances well in the hand and comes with a decent edge and a carrying sheath.
Used it up on the ranch in Montana and was very happy. I figured Gerber makes a decent product and Ill shell out the whopping $20 bucks for it. Also I keep one in my closet, makes the glock look whimpy. Some over the reviews said this product was "ok". It arrived I was more than impressed. Even tried to chop fire wood with it after a few cocktails, didnt work so well, but it held up to the abuse. Great grip, blade is thick and sturdy, saw on the back works well.
Blade is too thin.Light weight,Very sharp and the best for the price for around home.Would not go on a safari with it
