51,21 €This product is intended for use only by adults with knowledge and experience in handling sharp cutting tools. Improper use of the knife can result in serious injuries. The blade is extremely sharp and can easily cut through skin and tissue; therefore, extra caution should always be exercised while cutting, and hands should be kept away from the cutting edge. To prevent the knife from slipping, it is recommended to cut on a stable, non-slip surface and avoid excessive force, which may cause uncontrolled blade movement.
Leaving the knife on the edge of a table, countertop, or in easily accessible places—especially where children are present—poses a significant safety risk. The knife should always be properly secured after use, ideally by placing it on a stable surface or storing it in designated knife blocks, protective sheaths, or magnetic strips. The knife should never be used for tasks it is not designed for, such as opening cans or prying objects, as this can damage the tool and lead to dangerous accidents.
A dull blade increases the risk of injury, as it requires more force and is more likely to slip from the material being cut. Therefore, it is essential to sharpen the knife regularly to maintain optimal sharpness. Additionally, proper cleaning and drying of the knife are necessary to prevent corrosion and bacterial growth. Periodic inspection of the handle and blade is recommended to check for cracks, chips, or looseness. If any damage is detected, the knife should be repaired or replaced immediately.
When using the knife, focus solely on the task at hand—avoid talking on the phone, watching television, or other distractions while cutting. Ensure proper lighting in the workspace for better visibility and control. Please note that some countries or regions have laws restricting the ownership and carrying of knives. Before purchasing or using this knife, verify that its use is legal in your location according to applicable regulations.
Following these safety guidelines will help ensure safe and effective knife use, minimizing the risk of accidents and extending the lifespan of the tool.
Heavy Dark Wood, Black 420 is a tool designed for tasks that require strength, durability and functionality. The machete combines a simple but effective design with materials that perform well in the field. The 420 stainless steel guarantees corrosion resistance and ease of maintenance, while its black finish protects the surface of the blade and enhances its utility. Thanks to the Blade's appropriate geometry, the tool efficiently handles chopping, grubbing and cutting plant materials. The use of a dark-colored wooden handle not only enhances aesthetics, but also improves comfort. The elongated handle sits well in the hand, and the attachment with steel rivets increases the stability of the design. The end of the grip has been widened to minimize the risk of accidental slipping out during intense movements. A functional sheath allows the machete to be safely stored and conveniently carried at the belt or in a backpack. This is a tool that will find its way both on a camping trip and in everyday forestry duties, offering reliability, robustness and practicality.
CJH - a sub-brand of C.Jul. Herbertz GmbH a legend in the world of knives with an excellent reputation. The name refers to the company's founder. Carl Julius Herbertz founded the company in 1868 in the city of Solingen, which has been the center of German knife and cutting tool manufacturing since the Middle Ages.
420 martensitic stainless steel rich in 0.15% carbon, containing min. 12% chromium, which offers high hardenability in the 54-56 HRC range as well as strength, toughness, machinability and excellent corrosion resistance. The high carbon content produces chromium carbide compounds for wear resistance and edge retention after hardening. Due to its high hardness, the steel is suitable for manufacturing cutting tools, knife blades and medical instruments.
Blade - a wide machete type blade, which provides enough weight for effective chopping and slashing. Stainless steel 420, used in production, is valued for its resistance to moisture and ease of sharpening in the field. The black protective coating increases abrasion resistance while reducing the visibility of scratches and dirt. Blade shape has been adapted for dynamic strokes and cuts, allowing the tool to be used for both light grubbing and heavier field work.
Handle - made of dark, natural wood, combining a classic look with good ergonomics. Anatomical profiling of the handle allows you to operate the tool comfortably for a long time, reducing hand fatigue. The stable riveted attachment to the full tang shaft translates into the durability of the whole and resistance to overloading. On the back there is a slight widening, which improves safety and prevents accidental slipping of the machete during work. The included nylon sheath allows for convenient carrying and storage of the tool, increasing its functionality in field conditions.
