Have not had the occasion to "use" a machete much, in my neck of the woods.
Have you?

In all seriousness, being a collector of "edged" items, for decades, I do have a few. One of the "best" ones that I have, came from a vet, who brought it back from the Philippines in the 50s. It was handmade out of a truck spring, with a hand-carved covering. (sheath)
