z Sold Antique Jungle knife

This jungle mans pal looks great although I never used it, but I know from my personal experience that a bolo machete is a good multi purpose blade. It has the straightness of a regular machete, for better handling and more accurate cuts when needed, but is heavier at the end of the blade for added chopping power. In the South American jungles most men seen walking on the roadsides carry large knives like this, essential for fighting off tigers and pythons and – more importantly – slicing mangoes. This big knife has had the blade cleaned, but you can see the hammer and anvil makers mark. The unique grip has embossed into the wood a scene of a native about to fight a tiger.The grip has a portion of the spacer between the scales is missing, you can see that in the pictures. The blade is 14" long and 19 1/2" overall.
