Corona MA 60041 Machete, 18-Inch

I never write reviews because I simply do not have time to do this. However, I do read some. I have used this product before this purchase. I could not buy locally so I bought here. This product works as should. Some reviews talk about how its dull, will not cut, etc. This is ALL false information (for the most part).These people that comment like that do not know how to sharpen anything. This machete has a factory ground edge. We sharpen ours each day to the point they shave. Take about 10 minutes the first time and about 2 minutes each day after that to keep it that way. Its not a product flaw its a purchaser flaw in not knowing WHAT or HOW to do something. Mainly for themselves.Use a mill bastard file I like a 12" to sharpen it. I also prefer a handle on the file.So the product is great, performs well, and will cut your arm off if you would like for it too.

Muy bien machete

Handle is injection molded. Not terrible. Very steep grind on the edge. A little toothy as far a random nice missing from the edge. Not cutting sharp. But awesome for chopping tree limbs sharp

Sharp fairly well made for the price!

Disliked how the blade lost color and got old pretty quickly in the cold. I liked how the design overall looked when it first came, it will chop your bushes and plants when you need it no matter what.

I am not sure why people write bad reviews about the Corona 18" machete. I have had one for several years that I keep in my Wrangler. It has been all over Western North Carolina and it has served me very well. I also use it while I garden and cut brush around the house. I even use it to dig small holes for bulbs. So, I just bought another one two days from Amazon just to have it for home use and keep my old faithful in the Wrangler. I have a 22" cold steel that is too big for what I used it in my home, and I put the Corona way ahead of it. I like the handle and the blade holds an edge well. As a matter of fact, my wife loves is as it is the best tool to use to cut a pumpkin in smaller pieces to fit in the oven.

Lt weight, sharp, 18 in. blade w/ plastic handle, fast Shipping. Handle is loose, wiggles, riveted on to blade.Modest price but junk, flimsy. Made in China for the price point.No stars for this one.

We received the product very quickly and used them the very next day. Very durable and the edge lasted very well giving that we were chopping down roots in the dirt and rock. I would recommend them for anyone.
