When Gerber began making handmade knives as gift items in 1939, it certainly did not suppose that 70 years later it would be one of the best-selling knife manufacturers. As Gerber has grown since then, it no longer focuses only on Gerber fixed blade knives and Gerber folding knives. Today's products of this company include tool pliers, quality flashlights, ergonomic axes, compact headlamps, sharp machetes and practical field shovels.
It is also very important to mention Gerber's connection with a former member of the British SAS - Edward Michael "Bear" Grylls. Thanks to this, we can offer you survival items that will increase your chances of survival in the wild.

MACHETE FOR THE JUNGLE AND THE FOREST
Machetes are mainly used to cut a path through dense vegetation. There are different types of these slashing weapons, machetes designed for both work and military use. We will advise you on what to look for when choosing a machete.
MANUFACTURER
The choice of the manufacturer is more than important, practice-proven products promise you a guarantee of durability and long life. On Armed you will find products of renowned manufacturers of the highest quality, among which are American Cold Steel and Gerber. If you are interested in wholesale cooperation, do not hesitate to contact us.
BLADE MATERIAL
The blade material is one of the most important parameters by which cutting tools are selected. We have written more about cutting steels in this article.
HANDLE MATERIAL
Safety at work is essential. The machete should have an ergonomically shaped handle that fits well in the hand and does not slip, especially in difficult working conditions (wet, and rainy). The rubberized handle with grooves ensures that the tool does not slip out of your hand and you do not injure yourself while working. Some people also prefer light but very strong handles made of Kraton or zytel.
TOTAL LENGTH
The overall length of your new machete should be chosen according to the use you plan for your machete. If you want to get a machete for less demanding work, compact lightweight machetes with smaller blades are recommended. If, on the other hand, you will be using your machete for heavy work, we recommend a longer and heavier machete, which will be easier to work with.
WHAT DOES FULL-TANG MEAN?
The term full-tang means that the blade is extended all the way to the handle, giving the tool more rigidity and control. Machetes of this type are very resistant to breakage.
