Update Pros and Cons

Pros

Great for light-moderate cutting in closer spaces - grasses, blackberries, up to finger-thick * plants with no trouble. This blade is lightweight and has a balance i have dreamed of.

The bang for buck on this machete is outstanding. Love the company.

Cons

Poorly made. Needs to be sharpened. Once sharpened it starts to rust after washing. Loose handle manufacturing defect.

Competitiveness

A file and some sand paper and it shaves hair like a champ.

I own other tramontinas and for under $10 this one is well worth it.

After getting that forward section taken care of, the entire edge was easy to get paper cutting sharp with a sharpmaker.

Bought another tramontina that is 12" long and it is my favorite between the two.
