Description
The Cold Steel 17 Inch Magnum Kukri Machete is engineered for those who require maximum chopping power and durability in a machete. This “Magnum” version extends the already impressive capabilities of Cold Steel’s Kukri Machete, providing a longer blade that excels at clearing large swaths of dense vegetation, hacking through thick branches, and performing heavy-duty bushcraft. Its design ensures that every stroke delivers a deep, effective cut, making tough chores significantly easier.
Key Features:
- Blade Material: Primarily constructed from tough 1055 High Carbon Steel. Some current production models may utilize 65Mn Carbon Steel, both chosen for their resilience, ability to hold a sharp edge, and spring temper, which helps them withstand bending and impact.
- Blade Finish: Features a durable, baked-on matte black anti-rust finish. This coating provides excellent corrosion resistance and a non-reflective surface, ideal for demanding outdoor environments.
- Blade Design: A substantial 17-inch kukri-style blade, characterized by its distinctive forward curve and expanded “belly” near the tip. This weight-forward design maximizes leverage and delivers exceptional chopping and slashing power. The blade features a full tang construction, extending through the handle for superior strength and durability under heavy impact.
- Handle: Equipped with a textured, hard polypropylene handle. This material is chosen for its ruggedness, resistance to chipping or cracking, and its ability to provide a secure and comfortable grip, even in wet conditions, thereby reducing hand fatigue during prolonged use. It typically includes a lanyard hole for added security.
- Sheath: Comes with a sturdy black Cor-Ex sheath (often referred to as Cordura in descriptions, indicating the robust fabric type). This durable sheath ensures safe storage and transport of the large blade and features a reliable belt loop for convenient carrying in the field.
- Dimensions:
- Blade Length: 17 inches (approximately 43.2 cm)
- Overall Length: Approximately 22 inches (around 55.9 cm)
- Blade Thickness: Generally around 0.08 to 0.11 inches (2.0 mm to 2.8 mm).
- Weight: Weighs approximately 18.2 to 20.1 ounces (around 516 to 570 grams). While a larger machete, its balance is optimized for efficient swinging without being overly cumbersome.
- Performance: Supplied with a sharp utility edge from the factory, it is capable of being sharpened to an even finer edge for precision tasks. It is designed to “bite” deep with every stroke, making it highly effective for heavy chopping, clearing dense brush, and processing wood.
- Country of Origin: Often manufactured in South Africa or China.
Important Note: The Cold Steel 17 Inch Magnum Kukri Machete is built for serious work. Consistent cleaning, drying, and occasional sharpening are recommended to maintain its peak performance and longevity.
