The Hawkchete is a collaborative product between Mykel Hawke Knives and Condor Tool & Knife. It’s manufactured by Condor in the same factory as their machetes. The Hawkchete features an 18 1/8″ carbon steel blade with black epoxy coating. The handle is Condor’s own santoprene handle with rubber inserts and a lanyard hole. The Hawkchete comes with a nylon belt sheath with plastic inserts.

Condor? The cheap gear company Ewwwww?
Open mouth…insert
Condor Knife is a different company. But they are to crap knives what the other company is to crap nylon.
But it’ll be all the rage when it’s on the poster for the next zombie B-movie, right about… Now.
Anything Myke Hawke is associated with, is worthwhile.
double-edged machete? no thank you.
another cheap import with another survival-guru’s name stamped on it? double no-thank-you.
You said it sir.
Just looks like a buggered up kukri. I’ll stick to my un-buggered up kukri, thanks.
I hope the straps are replaceable, I can foresee the back edge slicing through them if you aren’t careful.
Has there ever been anything wrong with a normal machete? There’s a reason it’s been around as long as it has.
This is surprisingly close to a combat ginunting(Philippines marine recon issue)
If you train in Kali you’ll know it’s effective.
It only resembles a ginunting in that both have a sharpened portion on the spine, whereas the ginunting is a sleek tool that can also be used for stabbing thrusts, etc, the Hawkchete looks like a sad version of machete/kukri mash up. Would be interesting to see reviews of this however to get a better idea of how it performs…
I can’t see the edge on the back being needed but I can picture it causing injuries at very inconvenient times.
