I'd really give it a 4.5 stars, but I'm gonna just go ahead and round it up as any cons are, in my opinion, very minimal and aesthetic in nature. The fullers ("blood grooves") are kind of unfinished and the grind marks used to make them are visible, but that's easily cleaned up with sand paper and love. The edge, although very much satisfyingly sharp, is a little sloppy and nonuniform, but with the aforementioned love and my Lansky Puck, it will soon be perfect. It came USPS, and rather fast at that. I live in Indiana and it shipped from Hawaii on the same day of Friday and then arrived on the following Monday. The shipping box allowed for some immediate testing, and I'm pleased to announce that the box is no longer suitable for shipping purposes. It is suitably blade heavy in it's balance, as it is a machete and made for blade heavy purposes. A quick snap cut from the wrist nearly sliced the shipping box in half, and that was more due to the weight and sharpness of the blade than my own physical effort. The handle is nice, though aesthetically it is obvious that it is hand made, and allows for a multitude of gripping techniques. I'd consider it hand and a half, and I have some meaty paws. It didn't come with a sheath, but I ordered one that was made for the two handed Cold steel latin machete, and it will do fine until I make a leather one for it. Like I said, it's a little rough aesthetically, but functionally it's amazing. Being that it's hand made, no two are going to be exactly alike, and the one you buy is going to be 100% yours and unique.

This burner worked well for about two days, then it began to lose power. I didn't notice it at first, since I didn't even use it every day. The thing finally quit working completely barely three months after I purchased it. I do NOT recommend this item.
