As someone who doesn’t actually use knives or blades all-too-often, I gotta say, I still love playing around with a good-old butterfly knife, even if it puts my life into immediate danger by doing so. Well, Gerber Gear has unveiled a new 15 inch butterfly-knife-style machete, that’ll put your regular butterfly knife to shame. It’ll have you saying “That’s not a knife”, “This is a knife”, in an Australian accent to your friends anytime you whip it out.
The unique folding machete will perfectly fit into your bag by halving the size that a machete of that size would normally be. Since the handle of the machete folds right into the blade of the knife, you’ll save a ton of room when packing up your gear for hiking, camping, fishing, hunting, etc… It’ll even fit right onto a MOLLE!

The new design of the butterfly-style machete allows the user to use the machete as 3 distinct functions, including chopping, cutting, and using it has a baton when folded down. It also uses a 4-lock system which engages in 3 positions to ensure safe operations under “varying levels of stress”.

The unique blade weighs 18 oz, comes with a MOLLE compatible sheath, and it comes in three different versions, including black, green, as well as black on black which will run you a bit extra for being extra-awesome looking.
