I have honestly never heard of these people
With new laws coming into place I wanted to put forth an argument for Parang’s rather than machetes being used for bushcraft. Parang’s having a 4mm thick spine and shorter blade as opposed to the thinner spines of machetes. The thicker spines suiting Australian and SE Asian timbers. This also goes for larger knives such as the ESEE Junglas.
Used in most countries for bushcraft. Im looking forward to testing this one out
What Id really like to do is contact Ben Orford and see if he could make me one in 5mm AEBL stock.

Anika Parang 300mm blade and I believe a 5mm spine and 9XC steel

Try oiling ? Match the steel to the purpose. If you enjoy using a knife, then the steel doesn’t really matter anymore.
Now I thought I anyone chants Intifada, that was now against the law.
