That's more on the collectable side, and usually more money as well as a wait. Personally I'm not a fan of wood or horn handles in working situations. As nice as the real ones are, they still come with slight imperfections and are sometimes not as well proportioned as they could be, although that's probably just me as I'm a bit larger than most Nepali.

That's all just character though, so yeah, I still recommend giving those hard working kami some business. Don't be surprised if you find yourself wanting a different sheath though.

I've been meaning to get a kukri or maybe a brush sword and hatchet

While it looks cool, that "brush sword" is stainless? How odd.

Here you go OP, viking flavor

This thread makes me want to buy some "tactical tools" now.

I do have a scythe in the garage though. It's kinda dull. Never actually used it for anything. I have several axes too, but that's pretty much something every Canadian owns. A big wood splitter and a smaller hatchet for kindling.

I used it to chop up an old door into firewood. It took forever!

I have a couple of them. One I actually use for hacking off tree branches and stuff. The other sits on the nightstand. In case an intruder needs an appendage removed.

Those are my wood choppers. The Tramontina Machete is pretty good.

Smith & Wesson makes good firearms, but most of the cutlery so branded is just cheap Chinese junk.
