Jungle 101: The Machete
Ever wonder how people stranded in jungles survive? Ever wonder how Indiana Jones made it through dozens of perilous vegetation? Whips aren’t the answer. Yeah, you guessed it, they carried machetes. These blades are important for any survival tactic. With its functionality and portability, the machete is the ultimate tool against nature.
The key to surviving any jungle expedition is resourcefulness. One might remember the famous quote from Bear Grylls of Man vs. Wild to be as such “necessity is the mother of all inventions”. With barely anything, you will have to strive and make your own tools to thrive in the wilds. What better aid is there than your wits and a cold, hard machete. Of course, the chances of you being stranded in the middle of the jungle are pretty slim, but stranger things have happened.
The Cold Steel 18 inch Latin machete can prove to be the handiest tool to your survival. With an anti rust matte finish, 18 inch carbon steel and a smooth long handle, this machete can cut through anything be it vines our torso-sized tree trunks.
With Christmas season almost here, nothing says “I love you” like a machete. A perfect present for any weapon or swords enthusiast, butcher or outdoorsman, surprise your loved ones with an unexpected gift. Once you have grasped the machete in your hands, you’ll want to try it out on the nearest vegetable chopping board (unless you can find a jungle near you) and experience the euphoria of wielding it.
