Fiskars Clearing Tool Garden Machete

The Fiskars Clearing Tool Garden Machete is a fast and efficient tool for cutting vines, brush, tree limbs, and more. With a 15-inch tempered steel blade, this tool is designed to clear large areas of overgrown brush, thicket, or brambles, as well as for use in cutting back or maintaining the elements of your garden, such as palms.

Unlike with traditional two-handed tools, you can use this machete to clear brush or chop branches – and do so one-handed, so that your other hand is free to pile cuttings. The rust-resistant, low-friction coating helps the blade glide through even the toughest of materials and makes cleaning it easier to speed up your clearing tasks.

Key Features and Benefits

The product has certain features and benefits that make it stand out.

1. 15-Inch Hardened Steel Blade for Maximum Cutting Power

Those branches, thick stems, and fibrous plant material are no match for a hardened steel blade built to last and stay sharp. Built for tough, heavy-duty applications, this blade maintains sharpness after long periods of use, resulting in more cuts.

2. Curved Blade Profile for Smooth, Non-Stick Cutting

The curved blade style prevents the tool from getting stuck within dense brush and undergrowth, easily slicing through thick weeds and heavy brush. A bypass lopper is a useful tool for landscaping and yard work.

3. One-Handed Operation for Convenience and Efficiency

It is unlike a traditional machete that requires two hands to control and use. Now, available hand lying comes free:

• Hold and gather cuttings.
• Support branches while cutting.
• Easily pile up cleared debris.

This innovative feature allows for greater mobility and a more precise clearing tool to use in any landscape.

4. Rust-Resistant, Low-Friction Blade Coating

It’s also got a unique low-friction coating that won’t allow sap and plant debris to gum up the blade. This reduces resistance while cutting and increases your ability to cut through challenging materials with ease. Commercial setting, or in high-moisture areas.

5. Ergonomic Softgrip® Handle for Comfort and Control

The Softgrip® handle is contoured to fit your hand, and the flat bottom base offers a one-hand use ease that leaves the nonworking hand free to turn pages or for other tasks, relieving you of muscle strain in your wrist as well as fatigue. The non-slip handle provides a sure grip, which makes the operation of the knife smooth and perfect without losing strength or precision under any conditions.

6. Versatile Applications for Yard and Garden Maintenance

The Fiskars Garden Machete is a versatile machete designed for maximum efficiency to give you more one-strike splits with each swing.

• Heavy brush removal: Quickly and easily clear away gaunt, woody trophy stands.
• Application: The palm leaf cutting knife can cut both the leaves and stalks of a palm; stalks do not need to be removed, and leaves can be cut on one's side.
• Cutting vines and invasive plants: The high-strength saw is great for quick-growing vegetation.
• Thick branch pruning: It cuts branches with a thick stem.
• Landscaping and trail maintenance: Keeps pathways and outdoor areas clean.

How to Use the Fiskars Clearing Tool Garden Machete

Using the Fiskars Garden Machete correctly ensures maximum efficiency and safety. Follow these best practices for effective use:

1. Proper Grip and Handling

• Maintain a strong, controlled grip on the Softgrip® handle.
• Adopt full sweeping chainsawing back and forth, cutting grass easily.
• Keep the knife pointing away from your body for safety.

2. Cutting Techniques for Different Plants

• For brush and shrubs: Stroke back and forth in a brisk, chopping motion through tangled growth.
• For fibrous plants, such as palms: Use firm, quick cuts to cut through hard fibers.
• For branches and thick stems: Use the strongest part of the blade (close to the handle) for exerting most power.

3. Maintenance and Blade Care

• After using the blade, make sure to wipe it dry, so as not to have sap and debris buildup.
• A thin film of oil is advised to prevent rust.
• Store in dry conditions to prevent knife blades from rusting and becoming dull.
