That's my thoughts as well, plus it's quite intimidating!

It's a toss up between a 1311 and a 14 inch Tramontina machete. They actually have the same blade length. Both have kydex belt sheaths on a dangler.
For cutting light weight stuff, the machete is great but for cutting heavy limbs, felled trees, thick hanging vines, and just about everything else, the 1311 is fabulous.
I would throw my machetes away if I didn't think I would ever hit a rock again.

As for bigger blades, it is a mix between my 711 and SFNO Le. Those two blades get just about the same amount of attention.
When it comes to smaller blades, the Vex (2013 edition) and the Yardkeeper are my 'go to blades'.

A bit o everything... That said, Rat Shaker is pretty much one knife that doesn't get bumped out of edc whenever I have cargo pockets. The rest of my edc gets rotated, usually a slipjoint if I need to use a knife in front of sheeple and a modern folder. LMS seems to be the at home fixed edc blade, but bigger and smaller get used for various stuff. Recently used ergo BM to cut up salad... When heading out into the bush, the constant residents of my pack are Chopweiler and Swamp Warden with handle scales. A 'medium' knife is rotated, and sometimes a 'big' one gets added.

The 711 is my go to camp knife(soon to be retired to my truck in favor of the B-8). It is about the perfect size for most camp chores. I have had on order since October a custum Ratmandu from the Swamp. I see that becoming my go to belt knife(if I ever get it). I had my 411 reprofiled and is a wicked slicer. It is mostly used for food prep and meat processing.
