Description
The TOPS El Machete .230X is a heavy-duty fixed blade built for clearing brush, cutting vegetation, trail maintenance, and demanding outdoor work. Based on the original .230 pattern, this oversized machete combines long reach with the strength of thick 1095 high carbon steel to deliver powerful chopping performance in dense terrain.
At 22.5 inches overall with a 15.75-inch cutting edge, the El Machete .230X carries plenty of blade length and forward momentum for working through vines, briars, saplings, and overgrown trails. Its substantial construction gives it a noticeably more rugged feel than thin stamped machetes.
