Cold Steel CS97BAM18S Barong 18" Black Matte Baked-On Anti Rust 65Mn Carbon Steel Blade, Black Polypropylene Handle, 24.50" Long Includes Sheath

The Barong heralds from Southeast Asia, where it is historically both an agricultural tool and an effective weapon during wartime. It is an excellent bushcraft tool, cleaving vines and branches with ease. Our Barong inspired Machete features a beautifully curved 18" leaf-shaped blade made from 65Mn steel with black anti rust matte finish to aid in rust and corrosion resistance. Its traditionally influenced down-turned polypropylene handle helps anchor the blade in the hand when making hard chopping or slashing strokes. Each Barong comes complete with a Cor-Ex sheath for ease of carry.
