Donobieus 15 Posted July 15, 2013 Almost any sporting goods store has them. Harbor Freight has shitty cheapo ones if you just wanna beat it up cleaning up brush off a wall though. I think its 7 or 8 bucks only... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Night Prowler 0 Posted July 16, 2013 You can even find them at Walmart. If you only need it one time buy cheap. If its something your going to need for years but quality. There is a big difference in the efficiency between the two. Sadly there is probably local you could get a good one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RedBowTies88 41 Posted July 16, 2013 If you have a bench grinder walmart sells them for like 6 bucks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bhunted 887 Posted July 20, 2013 Dunno if they still do, but their bayonets use to be laser sharpened. Suckers could split hairs. Happy to help! Glad it did the job for you.

Smokin .50 1,907 Posted July 20, 2013 My Ontario is almost 30 years old. Stills holds a decent edge too! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RUTGERS95 890 Posted July 20, 2013 I'm still out on the retaining wall using it. Thing is incredible and has a lot of functionality. Never thought to use a machete till my landscaper said to use it for what I needed. The saw on the top works very well too Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
this_is_nascar 162 Posted July 20, 2013 Go to one of the farmer's markets. You can get a cheapy for next to nothing and don't need to worry if something happens to it. I picked on up at either Berlin or Columbus Farmer's Market. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
