Up for review this week is the Camillus Carnivore.
I've seen this one sitting in Wally World for a little while now. It intrigued me. Hence, a new review.
From the Camillus site:
DescriptionCM19074: Carnovire 12" Titanium Bonded Fixed Blade
Camillus Knives
The Camillus Carnivore is the tool for every chore. A 12″ Titanium Bonded blade which is intended not just for cutting but sawing, chiseling, digging, and wire cutting as well. The rubberized handle is extremely ergonomic and provides good traction in all weather conditions. The forward weighted balance of the blade makes chopping through dense brush, tree limbs, and wood easy work. Includes a Camillus nylon sheath and a full lifetime warranty.
Camillus...Unparalleled, Unprecedented and Unleashed.
Since 1876, Camillus Cutlery has been supplying the world with reliable, innovative and quality made knives that have survived the true test of time. As one of the oldest knife manufacturers, Camillus Cutlery has always answered the call for quality and will continue to do so with our hunting, fishing, sporting and tactical knives.
Craftsmanship with a worldwide following – it's been the Camillus way for over 130 years.
Camillus products are made of Titanium Bonded® cutlery-grade steel and are through-hardened to hold an edge.
Camillus markets this as a machete, but it doesn't quite feel like one. First of all, the blade is thick like a knife. Much, much thicker than my other machete blades.
Compared to my Fiskars machete:
Secondly, this blade features a mean looking row of knife-type serrations and chisel point on the end of the blade.
Another neat feature is what Camillus says is a "wire cutter", somewhat akin to a gut hook.
The handle is Kraton secured to the blade by Torx screws.
