Machai - A fitting name for this large chopping tool. In Greek mythology, the Machai were the daemons (spirits) of battle and combat. The heavy weight and re-curved profile of this flat ground blade make for a great chopper. The Machai's full tang and handle provide for a forward balance in the user’s hand. The ergonomic and textured canvas Micarta handle provides for a comfortable confident grip when wet or dry. Specifications:
