10"+ blades can all be called machetes no matter how thick they are. Does it really matter what you call it? I call my 24" Ontario "Billy Bad @$$" (excuse my french) and would dare anyone to stand within a few feet of him and say different. LOL
I mean it would be one thing to call a Dog Father a folding knife or Hobo knife but I wouldn't freak out if someone called mine a "camp knife" or a "machete" because it can be either one. The Battle Mistress, no matter the thickness is a machete. The Dog Father, machete. Scrapper 5 CG, machete. My 2 function swiss army knife, MACHETE!

Darned right! If I'm whacking something with it, it's a machete! Now go over to Busse forum and set them straight! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
Whats funny if joe public sees you holding a large knife they may start worrying but if you say something like, I like my machete to look fancy, they would probably relax and laugh with you.
A big knife is a weapon
But a machete is a tool
