Parang Machete – Hand Forged Outdoor Blade for Brush Clearing, Survival & Jungle Use

Unleash the power of traditional craftsmanship with our hand-forged Parang Machete — a blade born for jungle survival, brush clearing, and hard use in rugged terrain. Forged in Nepal from high-carbon 5160 spring steel, this parang features a wide, curved 16-inch blade that delivers powerful cutting force with every swing. Designed for serious adventurers, survivalists, and bushcrafters, this is a real working blade made for performance — not just display.

The Parang is a traditional machete originating from Southeast Asia, especially Malaysia and Indonesia. Recognized for its heavy, forward-curved blade, it’s built for efficient slashing and deep chopping. Unlike thinner machetes, the parang’s weight-forward balance provides greater momentum with each strike, making it highly effective in dense jungle or wooded environments.

Each blade is crafted by expert smiths using time-honored forging techniques. It is heat-treated and water-tempered to create a tough yet flexible structure with a hardened edge that holds sharpness through heavy-duty use. The full tang design gives the blade superb strength and balance, while the ergonomic 6.5-inch rosewood handle offers a secure grip even in wet or humid environments. Sharpened and ready for action, this machete is a field-tested tool you can rely on in extreme conditions.

Whether you're hacking through dense foliage, splitting kindling, or prepping camp, the Parang Machete brings tradition, power, and reliability into your hands. Finished with a handcrafted leather scabbard for easy transport, this blade is a must-have addition to any serious outdoor toolkit.
