Page 3 of 3 - Cold Steel Tactical Katana Reviews

Got this as xmas gift a few years ago it doesn't disappoint. Still fairly sharp and great tool. Absolutely have to use string as a hold. Would buy a larger version if it existed.

Machete was straight, ground evenly and has great reach. This was a concern when I bought it due to other reviews, definitely NOT a concern now! Arrow straight and the grind is perfect. The only thing I don’t care for is the plastic handle, it’s a little slick. I’ll have to find a thin wrap to make it more comfortable.

I like how it is two handed as compared to all my other one handed machetes, weight and length makes it a great solution to Johnson grass

I was surprised at how wonderful the handle feels and how high quality it seems.

It's quite decent. I had to do some extra sharpening on it because it was sharpened a little unevenly but it cuts foam like butter now!

I've been using this for 4 months in a fence row clearing project. Lots of blackberry canes and multi-flora rose. The length of this machete lets me stand back and hack a path into the base of the roses without getting snagged like with a short machete. Grape vines, honeysuckle, small saplings all slice nicely. When I need to bear down on a shrubby mass, the two handed grip rules.

I absolutely love this thing, the size, the handle, the sheath, all 5 Stars. The only problem is the blade. It’s so not straight, it’s almost laughable. It’s very sharp though and looks and feels pretty strong. I haven’t had the opportunity to use it yet and I’m not sure if I will. I may just keep it around to Michonne zombies in the apocalypse :) I do feel the price for a katana like sword is really a steal and all-in-all I’m very happy with my purchase.

Bought it a few months ago blade was uneven along the sides where it was sharpened
