    Ontario CT2-12 mechete 8295

    Posted by William McGuire on Aug 8th 2023

    Very well made, 1095 is the best steel for a mechete that I’ve found. It holds an edge better than any mechete I own. The coating lasts for life. I own several OKC machetes. This size and the full size one. They are indestructible. The only only changes I would make if I were to design my own would be to make the handle more ergonomic by rounding the bottom of the handle, and to make the tip a spear point. Other than that, this mechete is better than $200 ones I have used!
