Yes, so much testing to do......thank God I now have plenty of wood. What I really want to do after the 7" chop-off is a wide open no holds barred machete-golock-kukri-bowie chop-off. First the machetes, then the goloks and kukris, then the big bowies. Then the winners in each category in a final chop off. This would be straight chopping only, no overall evaluation. I have no idea which blade would win.
