Mine was perfect,

"I've seen negative reviews on this item on other websites. I disagree with all of them. Right out of the package I used this to cut down seven rows of dried cornstalks. About 350 feet of corn. This knife cut through them like butter. I was curious to see how many cornstalks I could cut in one swing. The answer was five. I ran the blade into the ground by accident at least four times but it still maintained it's edge.

After the corn I cut down several dried sunflower stalks. Anyone who has ever done any gardening knows how hard these can be to cut. I did run into a bit of trouble here. It was taking two swings to get them down and sometimes four but it still maintained it's edge.

When the work was done I decided to have a little fun. I had some overripe zuchinnis that I threw up into the air and then cut them in two as they were falling. I enjoyed watching the pieces flying off in every direction with little effort on my part.

I like good quality tools that reduce my effort and save me energy. I highly recommend this machete."

"I have used this item for quick trimming of brush out back and trimming of pine trees used for the Holidays. It has performed well and keeps a decent edge. Would definitely recommend this as the cost vs performance ratio is outstanding."
