Machetes and Bowie Knives for Sale: Quality Blades for Every Need

The name "Mato Grosso," comes from Portuguese and means "dense bush," recalling the South American region of the same name. This machete is specially designed to cut through the dense vegetation of tropical forests due to its long, narrow blade. It can be used to cut tall, dense grass, thin vegetation, cut branches and open paths in the most inaccessible forests.

Its forprene handle makes it easy to use. The drop blade, milled from Böhler N690 steel hardened to 58 HRC for the best balance of edge hold and strength, is 309 mm long, 4 mm thick and has a flat edge.

Mato Grosso comes with a black Cordura sheath equipped with an M.O.L.L.E. system that allows it to be carried on tactical vests and belts.

A well-motivated classic. The "kukri," the Nepalese multi-purpose tool made famous by Rgt. Gurka, in the service of His Britannic Majesty and derived from ancient Greek falcate swords.

The blade of this machete has differentiated roundings. Near the handle the blade is razor rounded so that a narrow sharpening angle can be achieved without unduly affecting the thickness of the back material, which must remain solid. The rounding at the end of the blade, on the other hand, is flat and well angled so as to effortlessly penetrate wood and vegetation.

Usually these kinds of tools are made of soft steel to be more elastic and more easily resharpened. Extrema Ratio has succeeded in obtaining an elastic tool with a decidedly long-lived and durable sharpening by using instead a hard steel such as BÖHLER N690. This machete comes with a thigh scabbard with black Cordura storage pocket and safety carry strap.

The blade has the classic Japanese Tanto profile and is made of Böhler N690 steel with heat treatments that raise its hardness to 58 HRC for the best combination of edge hold and strength. The blade, with flat rounding, features a precious satin finish.

The handle, in black coloring, is made of Forprene while The black-colored Cordura sheath is equipped with a MOLLE system that ensures safe carrying of the razor-sharp blade by protecting it from shocks that could reduce its efficiency.

Selvans Expeditions, as well as the Selvans model from which it derives, was born from the collaboration between Extrema Ratio and the Master instructor F.I.S.S. (Federazione Italiana Survival Sportivo e Sperimentale) Daniele Dal Canto. This tool is the result of the modification of the ONTOS, military survival knife, realized in order to accentuate and maximize the performance of the knife.

Selvans Expeditions uses Böhler N690 steel heat treated to 58 HRC with MIL-C-13924 burnishing and stone washed surface treatment (Dark Stone finish). The handle has been lengthened and the blade weighted to promote effective cutting strokes. It comes with a desert Cordura sheath with MOLLE system, equipped with a mini pouch containing paracord with flammable filament that can be used in case of emergency and/or critical weather conditions and a Firesteel for lighting fires.

The survival kit (not included and purchasable separately) has been optimized and includes whistle, chainsaw, drinking pads, compass, brass wire, flintlock, flashlight, paracord 2,5 mt. and sharpener.
