FKMD Jungle Parang machete
Description
FKMD Jungle Parang Machete
The FKMD Jungle Parang Machete is a modern interpretation of the traditional Filipino parang, designed for outdoor professionals, survivalists, and military users operating in dense or tropical environments. Combining the chopping power of a parang with the length and reach of a classic machete, it delivers superior cutting performance for vegetation clearing, wood processing, and field survival tasks.
The wide, curved blade provides both slicing efficiency and control, while its pointed tip allows for precision work when needed. Made from German W 1.4116 stainless steel, the blade offers excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness. Its Black Idroglider® coating enhances durability and reduces reflection for field or tactical use.
The ergonomic black FRN® handle ensures a secure and comfortable grip, even during extended work sessions or in humid conditions. The leather sheath offers secure and convenient carry for outdoor expeditions, camping, or operational missions.
