[QUOTE="ez bake, post: 1349511, member: 229"] So far, the use/abuse tests I've seen show the Gerber with poor results, the Cold Steel actually bending and chipping like the one I have and the Marbles actually doing quite well for $10-$15. The overall best results I'm seeing are in the ESEE Lite actually kicking butt (despite its RC rating, and overall weight). It appears to be an Imicasa / Condor (I believe Marbles is made by the same company) but ESEE re-finishes them, sharpens them, and puts their own handles on them. Here are some reviews: [url]http://www.survival-gear-guide.com/cold-steel-machete.html[/url] Here's some reviews of the ESEE Lite: [url]http://www.thechristiansurvivalguide.com/2010/08/04/gear-review-esee-lite-machete-taking-abuse-and-loving-it-video/[/url] [url]http://www.woodsmonkey.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=525:esee-knives-lite-machete&catid=34:knives&Itemid=55[/url] This guy has some good machete knowledge: [url]http://www.youtube.com/user/Colhane[/url] [/QUOTE]
