Gerber Machetes.
on: September 14, 2013, 08:07:25 AM
I already had the Gerber Gator Machete Jr. I just bought the Gator Machete. Here is a photo to show the length differences between them.



I also bought a Gator Machete Pro which is shown with the Gator Jr.





The Gator Pro is an interesting design. Built thicker than the other two Gator machetes, it has a nice weight to it. The included giant gut hook is a bit weird though. Mind you, Gerber keeps talking about zombies with this machete...so I guess the intended audience for this piece of hardware might want a cut hook after all.  :think:  :D

nice!  the long one at top would be my choice for camping. It's long enough to get a good swing or get a good stride when sawing a limb or log.

as always thanks for sharing  :salute:
:like:    :MTO:

The hooks for clearing brush mate, have a look at the Woodsman's Pal as this looks a direct copy to me.

Nice collection though :)

The Jr I find too light for good duty bladewise. It just doesn't have enough weight to give a good impact.
