Construction and Practical Use
The Bombardier machete features a blade made of 420 stainless steel, known for its high corrosion resistance and ease of sharpening in the field. The spine of the blade is equipped with a functional serrated edge, useful for notching tough materials or branches. Distinctive cutouts in the blade not only reduce weight and shift the centre of gravity for a better swing but also give the tool an aggressive tactical appearance. The dual-material handle (PP and TPR) provides a non-slip grip even with wet hands or when wearing gloves. When the job is done, store the machete securely in the durable nylon sheath with snap-fastening straps, which is included in the package.
History and Origins of the Machete
Historically, the machete evolved from simple agricultural tools used for harvesting sugarcane in tropical regions. However, its efficiency soon led to its adaptation for military and reconnaissance purposes, especially in the jungles of Southeast Asia and Latin America. Modern tactical versions, such as the Bombardier, draw from this heritage while adding features common to combat knives – a protective guard, ergonomic shaping, and a black protective blade coating that prevents light reflection and protects the steel.
Maintenance and Safety
To ensure your machete serves you for as long as possible, clean it of sap and debris after each use and dry it thoroughly. Occasionally wipe the blade with a thin film of oil to prevent oxidation. Never use the machete as a prying tool or for chopping stone or metal, as this risks damaging the edge or snapping the blade. When swinging, always maintain a safe distance from others and ensure the machete is secured in its sheath using all available snaps.
We recommend pairing this machete with a high-quality sharpening stone for field maintenance and tactical gloves for increased comfort during extended use.
