I used a powerfile (a great tool if you are into blades...) to sharpen mine all round, now its more like a double-edged short sword: for the money you just cant go wrong! I find it cuts well enough, of course not as well a genuine katana but come on, who would be dumb enough to think that it would?
It looks like a plastic toy. I think that is why you have been getting negative feedback on this. Perhaps if you showed how it performed the comments might be more positive, unless of course, it didn't function well at all.
I have serious doubts about its practical use. Especially fo said 47$. You actually do not need to apply such a power (of two hands) to use machete. Normally, you swing classical machete in you hand. In case you will grip it stronly, will be totally exhausted in the end of you chopping-day.
Looks like a toy for people, that like all Japanese. :) And ColdSteel is perfectly using it. I would rather buy Tramontina machete for 10$.
Nice! I got one too, and the weird thing is, I also received negative feedback for my video on it as well and your video was completely complimentary to it. Why are people thumbs downing these videos? Very strange. Nice review!
@sae1095hc You would be surprised at the things you can do with a longer handle. I have a well made katana with a longer than normal handle, and it handles like a dream.
What is the handle made of?

If you use a strong magnet you can pinpoint where the steel ends.

tang goes 1/2" below the setting bolt like most of their two handed machetes.
