Pros & Cons
Pros
The silky nata is a very sharp, very sturdy blade. The blade is thick enough to not bend and weighty enough to split kindling. A serious instrument.
Blade is not just for decoration. Great to have in hand with doing yard work or at a campsite. Pairs great with the foraging bags. Great for keeping in your barn as a go to for chopping stuff up.
The sheath looks great. Even the sheath feels high quality and securely holds the blade.
Cons
The concave blade makes it impossible to sharpen with my diamond stones. Seller is dishonest with suspect fulfillment practices. Will not buy again.
Highlights
Quality
Outstanding sharpness retention good balance easy to use for several hours
Its very well made only requires touch up sharpening after use and ridiculously sturdy
Throw your hatchet away and buy this thick backbone to smash on for more cutting force
The finish on the handle specifically the robots and edges of handle grips
Price
Disappointed in size overall for the price
So it is a nice machete for its price as soon as i got it and used it the tip of it chipped a little but is is still sharp
Shipping
Arrived fast and very sharp as well
I received this one on january 15th 2021 in case you’re discouraged from some older reviews
Packaging/appearance
I almost was but i’m glad it arrived in great condition and the packaging was cool
Everything i could ask for in a beautiful package
The size can be useful when packing it into a bag
Cons did not come with a lanyard

This barebones japanese nata knife is truly the 34it34 of small machetes

Youd think that the grip on the handle would make it more ergonomic but for some reason it just doesnt work with my hand
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Its too blocky and puts my index finger at a weird angle which causes a bit of strain

My friends who tried it had the same experience though thats not to say everyone will

Maybe there are some hands that it fits well
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Fortunately it feels decent enough when i grip the bottom part of the handle so its not a huge deal
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Also not a huge deal but the blade arrived disappointingly dull
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
It wasnt quite butter knife levels of dull but it could barely even cut a piece of paper and it was not a clean cut
