Fiskars Clearing Tool Garden Machete

The Fiskars Clearing Tool Garden Machete is a powerful and efficient tool designed for cutting through dense brush, thick branches, and fibrous plant materials with ease. Featuring a 15-inch hardened steel blade, this machete is perfect for clearing large areas of overgrowth, trimming palms, and managing tough vegetation in your yard or garden.

Unlike traditional two-handed tools, the Fiskars Garden Machete is designed for one-handed use, giving you the flexibility to clear brush while keeping your other hand free to gather and pile cuttings. With its rust-resistant, low-friction coating, this tool glides smoothly through tough materials without sticking, making your clearing tasks faster and more efficient.

Key Features and Benefits

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

The high-quality hardened steel blade is built for durability and sharpness, allowing you to cut through branches, thick stems, and fibrous plant material with ease. Designed for heavy-duty use, this blade retains its sharp edge even after extended cutting sessions, ensuring long-lasting performance.

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

The curved blade design prevents the tool from getting stuck in dense brush and tangled vegetation, making it easier to slice through overgrown areas without interruption. This feature enhances efficiency when clearing large sections of land or tackling stubborn plant growth.

3. One-Handed Operation for Convenience and Efficiency

Unlike traditional machetes that require both hands for control, the Fiskars Clearing Tool is optimized for one-handed use. This allows your free hand to:

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

This unique design ensures better mobility and control, making it an ideal tool for fast-paced clearing jobs.

4. Rust-Resistant, Low-Friction Blade Coating

A special low-friction coating prevents sap and plant residue from sticking to the blade. This reduces resistance while cutting, allowing you to slice through tough materials with less effort. The rust-resistant finish ensures prolonged durability, even in humid or wet conditions.

5. Ergonomic Softgrip® Handle for Comfort and Control

The contoured Softgrip® handle features a sculpted profile designed to fit naturally in your hand, reducing fatigue and increasing comfort during extended use. The non-slip grip improves control, allowing for precise and powerful cuts even in demanding conditions.
