Martindale Crocodile Golok No. 2 Machete

This is a Genuine Ralph Martindale "Crocodile" Golok No. 2 imported from the United Kingdom. Used by the British Army and Special Forces. The handles are made from German beech wood. The moisture content of the timber is monitored to make sure the product is consistent and does not split under normal circumstances. The handle can be modified to suit the user with grip wrap or similar and safety loop can be attached. The genuine "Crocodile" blade is made from hot rolled high quality British Steel by Ralph Martindale. The strip is tapered in section to optimize the unique cutting characteristics with the weight of the tool. The timber for the handle is cross-sawn for maximum strength and stability. The handle is fitted to the blade with solid steel rivets and washers. A special factory fitting technique is employed which has been perfected from 125 years experience to ensure this product is the best value for money and outlasts the life of other brands. Sheaths specially designed to fit this size machete are sold separately by VHA, Part TMS-1, ASIN B00JU3C06U. These machetes will need to be sharpened as they come with only a moderately ground edge from Martindale.
