- Is Tramontina the ultimate pack machete? I put this machete through a series of tests while backpacking in the jungle. Are you looking for a pack machete that is affordable and tough? Tramontina is world known as one of the best. Backpackers need a light and versatile machete.

I have had dozens of different machetes in the last 30 years. Tramontinas are by far the best.
I love your channel.
Sergio Costa Val thank you sir
is it better then CRKT chanceinhell ?
how about myparang? which one better?
I have always liked the ring of the 1070 Tromotina spring steel. The equivalent gun noise would be the iconic ting of an enblock clip being ejected from M1 Garand.
That WWII Marine cutting through Pacific Island jungle with my M1 Garand slung on my back feels....
@@pennsyltuckyreb9800 sadly I’ve never seen a photo with something like that but it could make a nice framed picture. Few would make the connection to their respective sounds. But it’d be cool to me.
As a Brazilian i can say that this is our main tool in duty tasks at the farm, trails, survilval or in our gardens. We use Tramontina machete for everything! Nice video, greetings from Brazil.
Hard to argue with an 18" Tramontina Latin machete as a backpacking choice, especially in a tropical jungle. One of the most telling things you did was baton through that 2X4 and then carve feathers. Batoning is VERY hard on a thin blade like that, because it has no shoulders to push the wood apart, so it really shows how good the edge retention is.
As for the video, I'll add another wrinkle, as a Trinidadian :) The man who did the one-cut opening is a coconut vendor. He cuts coconuts for people to drink all day long. That's how he makes his living. To say he's had a lot of practice would be an gross understatement. Those guys are notorious for having blades and cutting skills that would rival any Samurai. Not a fair comparison to the Hawaiian guy who was clearly not that comfortable with the task.
I got a good laugh when the machete kept getting stuck, BUT that told me it can cut very well. Thank you
william az she can chop for sure. thank for watching
Hey Gabe,i just bought the 18inch Tramontina on Amazon it's arriving tomorrow.
Can't wait!!
Michael Taylor you're going to be happy. Mahalo for watching
i love the tramontinas,been using them for over 30 years woods in S.Calif,deserts of Arizona,and most recently the deep woods of S.Texas. I like the wood handles better as I can adjust them to my hand size and they are much lighter than the ontarios.excellent choice IMHO
great machetes
Hi, Im Brazilian, the tramontina is a traditional brand in Brazil, every Brazilian has something of the tramontina, from machetes, axes, hatchets, cutlery and even tools, we have other brands but tramontina is traditional
Muito usado por policiais em zonas rurais, trabalhadores do campo, fazendeiros, lenhadores, e mais um monte de gente. Esse facão sabe o que é cortar madeira, mato, abrir um caminho na floresta, e cortar um bandido.
Hi Gabe, I think I have a similar one. It's the older version of Tramontina and it comes with wood handle. It didn't come with a sheath in my part of the world so I made one out of a 2 inch PVC pipe by heating it up and press it down so that the blade could slide in snugly. The blade is thin and lightweight, very suitable for the thick and dense tropical rainforest that we have here. It is very efficient to cut through some green saplings and vines but not really ideal for wood prep work IMHO. But for that kind of price point, no blade can beat that I suppose. Great vid btw!
THE RUBA DUB STYLE AT THE BEGINNING EARNED A SUB AND A LIKE !!! NUFF RESPECT GENERAL
SWEET REGGAE MUSIC PLAY IN BABYLON….
os facões da Tramontina são usados a muito tempo no Brasil são baratos e eficiente para muitas coisas
Tramontina just made a new machete. Its like the normal latin but it is a thicker blade and different style handle. Damn i don't think any machete in the universe can beat that beast. It chops like a axe cuts like razor blade. It has every thing in one man. I don't know if it is already international but man..... god level!!!
is it this style

Hello friend it's like the plastic handle one in this video but it has 2.5 mm thick blade 22.5 inches 1070 high carbon steel. But the handle is different. A little bit like parang handles
With the ticker blade it is heavier but that is my preference. It's because what I do. I need a heavier one. Last time I was in the jungle a anaconda attacked me but I always have my machete with me. I cut his had of that 4.74 meter beast with my tramontina.
@@asietoshautar4654 nice a latin style blade with a parang handle would be a nice mod from
It does what it needs to do rather well. You know what works. I really don't use one much so the smaller ones work well for me. Mahalo my friend.
Nice review my man.
I just picked this up at Lowes for $20 out the door w/sheath. I plan on taking this on an old trail that is for sure going to be overgrown. Cheers!
I live in NJ but I love this machete and I'm definitely buying one now.
Aaron Rowe you can't go wrong with Tramontina machetes. much mahalo brah
You should try a Gavilan machete there's a machete for each specific Activity in agriculture jobs. But for jungle you have the solution for us.
Geez, the world's toughest 2x4! Well done, as usual. Thanks for sharing.
Rick C yeah that 2x4 had some pretty good knots in it. Mahalo brah
It actually was a 2x6 not a 2x4.
I love my Tramontinas and especially how they sing. Any issues with the compression rivets in the plastic handle loosening especially after heavy chopping or batoning? I know many folks including myself have had issue with that on the wood handles. Thanks again for another great video malama pono.
Larry Koziol the plastic handle holds up great but there is a lot of vibration when batonning with a machete. Mahalo brah
hey man, first of let me say i love your videos.However, I am from Trinidad and yes i understand that the coconut was younger, but we use that same technique to open older coconuts as well. It take about two swings more but it is still faster. I've been holding coconuts and cutting them since i was 13. It has nothing to do with the state of our country. I'm sure some people from Hawaii can do that too. We just get accustomed to machetes at a young age. Please don't bash an entire country because you can't hold a coconut and cut it. And btw, we would use a 10-12inch Martindale to do such a task.
I’ve owned some martindale machetes. Not bad but a bit more spendy for the non definitive “British high carbon steal” blades that have actually been manufactured in Thailand for many years.
They sell these at the flea market by my house iam going to grab one and give it a shot thanks brother they have some with wood handles aswell
James Case great machetes. Mahalo for watching
I thought that 2x4 had you for a while. Thank you for the video, Gabe
I love your vids! Since you like bark river and machetes I'm surprised you don't enjoy their golok
Alex Malloy I like cheap machetes I can hit rock with and not feel bad LOL mahalo for stopping by
Jason woorhes wants it back
Theyre just simple no nonsense and arent pretending to be anything more than just a solid tool that works well with a bit of sharpening. Thats why they are great and sometimes a quarter of the price of these tacticool things.
I have the same machete as urs but the 24 inch but I love it man cuts good gets the job done best 25$ I ever spent at the flea market
Tranontina is the best. Thank you Gabe for the video.
I have the exact same machete it's good i chopped down like 2 trees in a row with no problem
Sou brasileiro, moro na região amazônica e essa versão exportação da Tramontina não tá disponível pra gente, e olha que seu vídeo parece ter 3 anos ou mais.
A falta de acesso aos produtos nacionais, faz com que muitos optam pelos importados .
Awesome review, now that machete is nice. I wouldn't mind getting one
BlackRifle Survival at that price get 3 LOL Mahalo brah
H.I.S Survival I even liked how the handle was detailed with grip. Lol but I want the esee junglas you have SOOOOO bad. Lol.
Danny Pavolini Outdoors did a review on a similar Tramonitina 18" a few days ago. The reason I say similar is because this one has a wooden handle and no lanyard hole and comes with a sheath (some kind of canvas). I got one yesterday at Lowes, $15.98, Tramontina product # 0785895.
I haven't gone out to use it yet, but after watching your excellent review, I'm looking forward to mutilating some brush soon. Thanks for your review.
Chain saw cabinet Shop it's a good machete you'll like it. Mahalo for stopping by
just a thought...i never use a new machete until i "reprofile" the edge with a new file. just don't go crazy if you try it...
Some people say that Tramontina steel is "cheap", but that is an unfair term. It is cheap in the sense of inexpensive, but it holds an edge better than some knives I have, which shouldn't be possible.
i have the 14 inch at home and i love it
great tool
It's funny how everybody who reviews a Machete made for light chopping and clearing thin brush suddenly turns into a full blown lumberjack find the biggest thing they can get their hands on. I just bought this Machete i can't wait to test it out!
But please, do try it on the biggest thing you can get your hand on 😉
Aloha! Pehea 'oe? I'm planning on getting Imacasa's 28 inch machete to combat the invasive artichoke thistles here in California. Your review is 'olu'olu nui loa!
JustSimplyBrandon Tramontina is mo bettah. shooooots brah!! Mahalo
awesome buddy
Great review, just subscribed...
Tramontina is the best
yep
Welcome to the jungle Baby!!!
Nice blade sir.
Just want to share. We in Malaysia, handle parang with wrist strength. Not arm
Nice 👍 Like all your Videos Great Stuff 👌
Alex Hafner much mahalo
"mahalo" -> Fucking amusing .
Never seen a Tramotina that was full tang. I have rehandled a few. Closer to about 50% with the meat of the metal on the spine side.
Hey dude great ALL videos in the channel... Now question here : What's your opinion about painted blade machetes in comparison with no painted blade machetes... ? Thanks. Martin from Argentina by the way. Cheers
I clicked 200 like mark! And I like the video
Hello. Do you have reference for this machete plz?
Can someone pls tell me the name of the song at the start of the video
I hate it when ppl dont tell the name of the songs used in their videos
Say Heah Gabie, I just got back from another practice weekend. I used my Bravo 1and my B R Golok, Both are in A2 and in the G-10 Ghost Green Jade Handles. I also have tge Bravo 2 and tge Woodland Special all matching. I really put my knives through their paces, The Golok was fantastic. The rounded tip is great with low chops, it doesn't stick into the ground. A great summer long knife. Soon I'll be taking my Matching Battle Horse Mode Attitude and my Modde Mad Hatter, both match. I can't wait to use them, Mahalo.
Is the blade on this plastic handle Tramontina 18 inch more wobbly and thinner than the wooden handle 18 inch Tramontina?
Tramontina and Imacasa make the best agricultural machetes.
I'm better didn't get machetes tell this subscription now I really understand
Sir, which one your favorite 18" or the 16" ?
Too bad they don't sell tramontina in my country. On ebay it costs 20 euros plus 80 euro shipping, fuck that xD
who makes the music?
Mine that I bought after this video is awesome but the grind stopped at the belly, a few inches from the tip
Tramotinas’ usually come with a starter grind like that. Plan on having to sharpen them.
Man; use a wedge when splitting logs.
is it better then CRKT chanceinhell ?
What country was this video made in?
Nice machete
Whıch is better24 or 18 inches machete
18 for backpacking and 24 for yardwork
@@gabehumphries5483 thanks
Aqui no Brasil chamamos esses facões de cartão de crédito da mata...
what material of this machete?
I prefer my Bolo Tramontina, over my Latin style machetes, for anything other than cutting long grass or weeds. Bolo is a better wood chopper/processor. IMHO.
for me better 3 to 3.5 mm thikness
may you visit my house and clean my back yard. i live in tropical climate. here every plant can grow so fast.
Hawaii is not second world. It has the 4th highest median household income in the US.
Machete Specialist says that it is indeed full tang
They have never taken a Tramotina handle off then.
It takes balls not first world or third world 😂😂😂😂, to cut it in hand in one swipe
best for zombies slash..
Yo Look like Conor Mc Gregor.
Why U kill de banana tree ??
it was talking shit
I was a bit disappointed with that too. Reminded me of my youthful knuckle head slash and burn mentally. At least you could have demonstrated how to hollow out the trunk near the base to get water if you were going to chop them down.
It will grow back
@@ezrahann3438 you could also use this for defense of cutting down banana tree, “Once a banana tree flowers and its fruit has been harvested, you may cut it down to the ground to make room for new, productive trees to grow up from the creeping underground stem.”

Say Heah Gabe Eben though it's still ifdle of winter here in The Ohio State Buckeye Country, I can't wait for my Afternoon Delights, A nice Cup of Coffee A La Mors everporated milk and honey and a nice Gurka Shaggy Cigar Imperial Presidente (8.5"X52) I have a O. K. C. 18" Military Issue Machete, But when we go to our area, I bring my clearing machete which is my d-ring 22" heavy duty Blackie Collins also made by O. K. C. But my Fav. on person carry bush wacker's are my All Time Fav. Rodent Rucki and my Ka-Bar Johnson Adventure Parangatang that I bought to team up with my Potbelly for a perfect match. I just add my Tops Mini Scandi 2.5 and a saw. But the Wilderness Pal was designed and developed in Pa
next door to me, It works pretty good in my kind of wooded condition's, so I got the Premier model which has a hand guard and a leather stavk handle. Oh and I got the leather sheath. When I saw Wessex do a video on his two Fav. knives one which was a Cold Steel Barong and a Mora Clipper, I drsided to try a Cold Steel that are made in Africa, But I got a Double Edge, It's a chopper alright, and fir the price, Yeah. I'm starting to use it more especially bushwacking in the spring and summer. But I got a battle horse mad hatter machete that they did a &#@?ed up job on it, I ordered a svandi grind close to the handle and the starting points are uneven, Also one one side thebhight of the Scandi is a 1/4" than the other side and the sheath came uncomplete
and Alicia told me she was the CEO and to accept it. Bullshit , I will not sit still for it, I recordered some conversations and my attorney wants to sue, But I'm not that kind of man, I would rather work it out, But that's my trunp card. Anyhow I had it made to match me Attitude which came out perfect. very nice
battle horse is not a reasonable priced company, a $79.00 machete cost me $207.00 and it came out like drunk boyscout worked on it. So now I'll have to take and have it fixed that will cost me mote, I don't TRUST battle horse ANYMORE !!! anyhow one day O might use that as a short machete, But my Parangatang which is more than half the price of the mad hatter is excellent compared to the custom battle horse made me
Then my All Time Fav. Rodent Rucki, No Way van they hold a candle to my Swamp Rat , Knives included anyhow, yeah , I can't wait for milder weather. I love the tropics, I lived in Caracas for almost 7 years, But I love snow for a couple of days and that's all heh heh heh. ,, .
I will buy no tool with a fancy made up name....
Debby Fitzgerald I can't help their names, But I do pay attention to what I buy for my type of bush. The trees are hard in my playpen, so I need a tough steel that holds a pretty good edge detention. The Johnson Adventure Parangatang is a serious 14" chopper, Infact I put some Black Handles on mine and it changed the appearence drastically. The Swamp Rat Rucki is one tough tool, I like choils, So I can use it to finish a job when I would need a smaller knife to finish the job and I can baton with it if I had to, Yeah, The names are not hardware store names, But the Rucki is no toy, It's also rather pricey. But I trust my life on my tools.,,.

Ughhhh hey bud, Hawaii is in a “1st world” country. A Jungle has nothing to do with “1st, 2nd or 3rd world” my friend. The definition of “2nd world,” were countries that were part of the old Soviet Union. 1st world are western civilization countries in North America and Europe, that are fully developed. 3rd world countries are under developed like in Africa, parts of Asia and the Middle East.
Class dismissed.
ДАВАЙ ПО РУССКИ....))))
el Salvador condor and aranyik from thailand are better tramontina
Not for less than $20 they are. Condor is just the overpriced imacassa with better handle and cheap black finish. Imacassa and Tramotina I would rank as equal if same price.
@@micahwest5347 condor come with an edge ranging from fairly to scary sharp whereas imacassa and tramontina have literally no edge you have put it yourself with time consuming
@@viseshseernam39 for the price difference you can buy a harbor freight 2” belt sander and put the same edge on the Tramotina in less than 15 min.
@@micahwest5347 Condor is known for their quality and harbor freight for cheap chinese steel who chips or rolls when get hit by a obstacle and i do not use belt grinder i use small angled one with bastard file and sharpening stone drenched in oil or diesel
@@viseshseernam39 sorry man. Obviously English isn’t your first language. I’m saying for the price of a condor you could get a “dull” Tramotina and a harbor freight belt sander to sharpen it with since you were concerned with how long it would take to put a nice edge on one. Not saying to buy a harbor freight machete. Spend a little less time nut hugging your condor and spend a little more time reading some books that will increase your English comprehension.
And for the record my favorite machete is a fiddleback forge 18”. The Steal was made in same factory as your beloved condor by imacassa. The steal is no better than the Tramotina but the fit and finish of the handle is superb. Blows condor away and they do a good job. Still I could have bought 18 Tramotinas with the same money.
Yours came blunt - as thick at the edge as the spine - towards the tip right?
