The United Cutlery USMC Desert Ops Machete has a 17.3-inch OD green matte finish sawback stainless blade with etching over a full extended tang at 24 inches overall, a desert tan ABS handle, a lanyard hole, an adjustable shoulder strap and a sheath.
The sawback is cut into the spine opposite the cutting edge, so one tool clears green growth with the main edge and bucks through seasoned limbs with the teeth. The shoulder strap is the practical difference from a belt sheath. A 24-inch blade on a belt catches on everything, where across the back it stays clear of the legs.
Stainless on a machete is less common than carbon, giving up some toughness for a blade that needs no drying after wet work. ABS keeps the handle light and cheap, and desert tan against an OD green blade is a military-derived pairing. Explore more Machetes.
