About 10-15 years ago, I bought two machetes marked "US 1943 SWI" from a local knife/military supply shop. Outstanding. They are still going strong after hard use. I would take them anywhere, with confidence that they would perform well. Somebody told me they were Ontarios, but I have no way of confirming that. I wish I could find a couple more.

On the other hand, I strongly suggest you avoid the Cold Steel machetes. Absolutely awful. You can make something better out of a lawn mower blade.

My two cents'.
