This machete is exactly what I was looking for. The quality and workmanship is excellent. This machete is military quality and can be used for a variety of purposes. I used it this past weekend on a camping trip and it performed exactly as advertised.

The Gerber Machete is Garbage! Purchased to replace a Machete 10 years old. Used on palmetto bushes and small limbs. After only two days their blade of hardened Chinese steal was everything but. Blade is bent, curled and kinked in several areas. Saw side worked fine

within 15 minutes of first use on privit and small trees the blade was bent. The hardened steel blade was not durable.

I believe it is for hanging on a nail or hook. That is what I use it for at least. I have a genuine G.I. issue machete from Ontario Co. and it is way heavier than the Gerber and has no hole. I would not expect the hole to be for aerodynamics or anything. Also I bought a corn knife a while back that has a similar hole on it and it was specifically used for hanging.

I am not positive about this answer but I think you could attach some paracord to the hole and two people could use the saw as a two man operation to cut wood faster than with one by adding pressure to the mix. Might not be it but I think it would help anyway.A:Â
the blade slides out and the know at the end is used to tighten the blade in place. No locking mechanism per se.A:Â
just in case if you want to hang it on a nail or on peg board1 of 1
