>>423667Girlfriend is going to Borneo next year as part of her degree. She wants a machete, so I'm thinking of getting her one for christmas. Any suggestions?
Ray Mears' machete is based on a design from Borneo (pic related), so I was looking at getting a similar style. I'll trust the judgement of the locals on what's best for their environment.
So any recommendations? The Condor village parang is currently the only one on my list and I can get it for less than £50, which sounds pretty good, but always worth asking for the opinions of people who might have more experience than myself as I've never owned a machete.
