I was at home depo today buying new razor blades for pod removal and seen this Gerber Machete. Had to snap a picture, not sure how it’s used.

I didn’t buy one, don’t think I need anything for that use.

A little big for removing skunk pods. I did get a nice set though.

We have a better hardware store in town but I have a small trapline set up in the middle of the Walmart next store , I had to do an evening trap check. Seems a squirrel is hanging out in the home goods dept.

Gerber only makes around 20% of their products anymore. Obviously that machete is probably one of the foreign products they have made cheaply overseas. I've noticed most Gerber knives and related products are crap now.

Some one with a bunch of the medical stickers... I've seen this while deployed... some one tagged all the hot sauce bottles in the chow hall with them and a bunch of the forks.

if they say for recreational use only , no warranty when you say I bush-wacked a 1/2 acre of over grown kudzu and broke it not recreational use.

also if your starting your own machete death squad in a small African or south American country , not a recreational use .


America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

It's probably a Chinese counterfeit Gerber and they Chinesed the "recreational" part to rectal.
I bought what I thought was a Ruger 10 round magazine from Bass Pro. It hardly had any writing on the packaging which was weird. What was more weird was that the bottom of it was perfectly flat instead of slightly curved, and after you loaded it, all of the bullets just fell out it when you shook it. I took it back and exchanged it for a genuine one.

I sent the pictures to Gerber, they say that is not their doing? Funny how this is going. I might have to re-look at them. I still need to check traps today at Wally world.
