SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Elk Ridge Machete with Orange and Black Handle is a heavy-duty cutting tool built for serious outdoor work, whether you're clearing trails, managing thick brush, or preparing camp. Designed for durability and strength, this machete delivers the power, reach, and reliability demanded by hunters, outdoorsmen, landowners, and survival-minded users. With its full tang construction and rugged materials, it’s built to take hard use in tough environments without hesitation.
Its 15.25-inch blade is crafted from 3Cr13MoV stainless steel, a resilient alloy known for its toughness, corrosion resistance, and easy maintenance. Finished in black for reduced glare and enhanced durability, the blade offers the reach and cutting momentum needed for chopping through heavy vegetation, splitting small wood, and tackling demanding outdoor tasks. The long cutting edge delivers sweeping, efficient slices, making it an effective tool for clearing trails or processing campfire material.
The full tang design ensures that strength runs from the tip of the blade through the end of the handle, giving the machete the structural integrity needed for high-impact chopping. The handle itself is built from orange and black injection-molded nylon fiber with a rubber overmold, combining rigidity and grip security. The two-tone design enhances visibility in low light or dense foliage, while the rubberized texture offers a confident hold even in wet or sweaty conditions.
A built-in hand guard provides added safety, helping prevent slips during forceful swings. A lanyard hole and included wrist lanyard add another level of retention, ensuring the machete stays secure when you're moving fast, working overhead, or cutting in tight spaces. At 21.5 inches overall and weighing 2.76 pounds, this machete provides the mass and leverage needed for deep, authoritative chops while maintaining good balance and control for long clearing sessions.
To complete the package, it includes a durable nylon sheath for safe carry and storage. The sheath protects the blade, keeps it accessible on the go, and makes transport easier whether you’re hiking into the backcountry, maintaining property, or heading out on a camping trip. Built to perform in demanding outdoor conditions, the Elk Ridge Machete offers the power and reliability essential for heavy-duty cutting tasks.
