Machete 230

TOPS El Machete .230 – Heavy-Duty 1095 Carbon Steel Outdoor Machete

The TOPS El Machete .230 was designed for demanding trail-clearing work and dense backcountry vegetation. Rather than relying on the thin stamped steel construction found in many conventional machetes, TOPS uses a rugged full-tang design made from 1095 high carbon steel. Its substantial 40.01 cm blade is built for powerful cuts through thick brush and overgrown vegetation.

The forward-weighted design helps deliver powerful chopping strokes by making effective use of the blade's momentum. This makes the machete well suited to extended trail-clearing sessions and demanding outdoor tasks. A durable Black Traction coating helps protect the carbon steel from moisture and residue encountered during work in wet vegetation.

The black Linen Micarta handle scales are ergonomically contoured and sit flush along the tang. Their textured surface provides dependable traction and supports a secure grip, even with wet or sweaty hands. A rugged nylon sheath is included for convenient carrying and storage.
