SHOP CASE KNIVESThe SOG Jungle Primitive Machete is a rugged and versatile tool built to tackle the toughest cutting, chopping, and sawing jobs in the great outdoors. Designed with the needs of adventurers, campers, and survivalists in mind, it blends the precision of a clip point blade with the raw power of a machete, giving you a dependable companion for everything from trail clearing to camp prep.
At the core of the Jungle Primitive is its 9.5-inch clip point blade, crafted from 8Cr13MoV stainless steel. This reliable steel offers a balanced combination of strength, corrosion resistance, and edge retention, making it well-suited for heavy outdoor use. The clip point profile provides excellent piercing capability and precision control, while the generous belly ensures efficient slicing and chopping. The blade’s black hardcase finish not only adds a sleek, tactical look but also helps guard against wear and the elements.
A standout feature of the Jungle Primitive is its sawback spine. The aggressive saw teeth give you the ability to cut through small branches, limbs, and other fibrous materials when a clean slice won’t do. This dual-function capability allows you to carry fewer tools while still being prepared for a range of cutting challenges. Whether you’re clearing a path, processing firewood, or handling camp chores, this machete is ready to deliver.
Built on a full-tang construction, the Jungle Primitive offers solid strength from tip to handle. This design ensures durability under heavy loads and hard use, making it a reliable tool when conditions get demanding. The handle is made from black Kraton, a tough and weather-resistant material that offers a comfortable, slip-resistant grip. Even in wet or muddy conditions, you can count on a secure hold, reducing fatigue and improving safety during extended tasks.
Measuring 15.3 inches overall with a blade thickness of .15 inches and weighing just 14 ounces, the Jungle Primitive is well-balanced and easy to maneuver. It’s light enough for prolonged use yet heavy enough to generate the force needed for chopping. This makes it a versatile size for those who need a capable fixed blade that won’t slow them down in the field.
For secure storage and easy carry, the Jungle Primitive comes with a black ballistic nylon sheath. The sheath features a belt loop for hands-free access, so you can keep the machete within easy reach whether you’re hiking, working on property maintenance, or exploring deep into the backcountry. The durable sheath construction ensures your blade stays protected between uses.
