Woods Monkey Half/Chete Fixed Blade Knife OD Green Cerakote/Natural Micarta HALFCHETE2

The Woods Monkey Half/Chete Fixed Blade Knife in Olive Drab Green Cerakote and Natural Micarta is built for the outdoorsman who wants machete-level capability in a more compact, carry-friendly form. Designed to bridge power and precision, it delivers strong chopping performance while still offering the control needed for detailed field work.

A 7" blade forged from 1095 carbon steel provides the backbone for demanding use. Known for its toughness and ease of sharpening, 1095 remains a trusted choice for hard-use outdoor tools. The Olive Drab Green Cerakote finish adds corrosion resistance, reduces glare, and gives the blade a subdued, tactical appearance that blends seamlessly into natural environments. The blade geometry is designed to chop with authority while still maintaining effective slicing capability for general utility tasks.

Full tang construction ensures strength and stability throughout the entire knife, reinforcing confidence during heavy cutting work. The handle is built from Natural Micarta, offering a warm, organic look with a grippy, textured surface that performs well in all weather conditions. Its shape supports secure handling during extended use, and the integrated lanyard hole adds retention options for field carry.

Measuring 12.25" overall and weighing 8.8 ounces, the Half/Chete is significantly easier to carry than a full-sized machete while still delivering impressive cutting performance when it’s needed most. It’s designed for efficient carry without giving up real-world capability.

A key component of the system is the included JRE sheath, constructed from reclaimed firehose with leather accents. The firehose material provides extreme abrasion resistance and rugged durability, while the leather elements add structure, retention, and handcrafted detail. Each sheath carries unique character from the reclaimed materials, giving it a distinctive, field-worn look. A belt loop and dangler attachment offer flexible carry options for comfort and mobility.

Proudly made in Ohio, USA, the Half/Chete reflects practical design and hard-use performance built for real outdoor conditions.
