Our Latin Style Machetes are available with eighteen, twenty one or twenty four inch blade lengths. With their non-slip, shock absorbing rubber handles, they are perfect in almost every environment from the jungle to the forest or even on the farm.

Reviewer: Martin from The North
Usual fantastic customer service from Blades and Bows, my 24" machete was delivered within 48 hours (over a bank holiday!!). This is the longest in the Latin Machete range, almost a short sword, and good value for money. Delivered with a working edge, 30 minutes work will put a seriously sharp edge on it, though by their nature machete's dont keep an edge very long and require frequent re-sharpening. Its length means it is quite heavy on the wrist to use, but the same length means it is devastatingly effective on the undergrowth! I fitted a lanyard on mine to enable a more secure grip, but as usual with Cold Steel products this machete is ready to go right out of the box.

Reviewer: mike from notts
very good quality machete, ideal for de limbing on felled trees but if used at full stretch or high for prolonged periods soon gets heavy which makes it hard to work in confined areas, does work better if the blade is given a longer taper to edge. Good tool .
