COLD STEEL Barong Machete 18" Blade 2.8mm Black Anti Rust

The Barong makes an excellent bushcraft tool. Cleaving vines and branches with ease. Its classically shaped down-turned polypropylene handle anchors the blade in the hand and helps to resist centrifugal forces when making a hard chopping or slashing strokes.

Its beautifully curved 18 inch leaf shaped blade is made from 1055 Carbon Steel with a baked on, matte black finish to aid in rust resistance, and each Barong comes complete with a Cor-Ex sheath for ease of carry and convenience of use.

Many employees at Cold Steel, including company President Lynn C. Thompson are practitioners of the Filipino Martial Arts and have great admiration for the Barong. They are proud to release this new interpretation of the classic Barong to their modern tactical Machete offerings.
