Me and My Machete

It was the weekend and I knew it was time to tackle the overgrown brush in the backyard.

So Sunday afternoon I picked up a Gerber Gator Machete from REI. Before deciding on that particular machete, I read reviews for a machete at Lowe’s and reviews for the Gerber. Without a doubt, I knew the Gerber was the one to go with. Once I got home, I knew I had a Goliath-sized task ahead of me. So for over 3 hours, I hacked away and was extremely pleased with the machete. My body gave out well before the machete and in fact, to give the machete life-like qualities, I’d say it never even blinked an eye. Take a look at the results below! Still more work to do, but with this Gerber machete, I’m chomping at the bit to get to it!
