Description
The Ontario Military Issue machete meets US government specifications for field clearing tools — the 1095 carbon steel blade is Parkerised for corrosion resistance and hardened to 50-55 HRC.
The injection-moulded polymer handle features a lanyard hole and thumb notch for positive control during rapid chopping.
A battle-proven military machete trusted by armed forces worldwide, supplied with a MOLLE-compatible nylon sheath.
**Mission-Ready Reliability**
When the scrub is thick and the timeline is tight, reach for the blade that has cleared paths for military units across every terrain on Earth.
The Parkerised finish shrugs off rain, mud, and salt air — this machete asks only for a sharp edge and a willing arm.
**Forged to Government Standards**
Ontario Knife Company has been a US military contractor since World War II, producing blades that meet rigorous MIL-SPEC testing for impact, edge retention, and corrosion resistance.
The Parkerising process — a phosphate conversion coating developed for military firearms — creates a matte grey finish that actively resists rust and reduces glare in the field.
Looking After Your Blade
Keep your blade in top nick. Give it a rinse and dry after each use to stop corrosion. Every now and then, rub a thin coat of mineral oil along the blade. Sharpen with a whetstone or honing rod at a steady angle. Store it in a sheath, knife roll, or on a magnetic strip — never chucked loose in a drawer. For carbon and Damascus steel, give it a wipe after cutting acidic foods. For folding knives, clean out the pivot and pop a drop of lubricant in to keep it opening smoothly.
