i dont know if this is the right section to post this but does anyone here know where i can buy a machete? and if possible, maybe within quezon city? i prefer those quality ones that can be bought at a hardware store.. maybe a corona or tramontina brand? coz i dont have the taste for those traditional looking ones...

if you want the originals you should go to panay island they make the real ones genuine like the samurais of japan but if you wanted just replicas you can buy in some shops in manila. here in cebu there are also makers and good black smiths they also make replicas they are located in pardo. if you want traditional swords like cris you can get it in zamboanga or in davao the best sword kris can get through metal if its genuine.

You got that right about getting a quality Kris in Southern Mindanao. My dad knew a blacksmith from Zamboanga City who made most of our utensils and cutlery. They where sharp as hell! Built strong.

no not realy its just narrow it looks like a broken samurai thin yet the other edge is heavy to help the force of gravity if you cut its flesh
