What machete style to choose?
What machete style to choose? What is the difference between a Bolo machete and a Latin style machete & why I mostly use only one of them.
If you say the word 'machete', most people will be thinking about a typical Latin styled machete. They are very functional tools and lend themselves easily to most tasks but as a Westerner, why would I pick a smaller Bolo machete over it's more capable Latin cousins?
The very simple answer is that generally, the Bolo is a much better fit for how we Westerners tend to use machetes.
Sorry about the wind noise at the end of the clip! We just picked up a better microphone and camera lens that should improve the quality of these videos.
Want to skip ahead:
2:15min Where a Latin machete excels
3:40min Is length an advantage?
6:10min Is weight an advantage?
8:00min How the sheath functions with a longer machete
9:35min Work flow (most important point!!)
10:55min Trick out your Bolo
