Review: ESEE EXPAT Darien Machete with Nylon Sheath, best machete for Alaska bush adventures - Hands down the best machete I’ve ever owned. Took it out in the Alaska bush and it handled everything like a champ, devil clubs, salmonberries, and decent sized branches. Hours of use and the edge stayed razor sharp with excellent retention. The weight is perfect, and the layered canvas handle feels amazing in my hands. Worth every penny.
Review: Esee quality - Makes clearing easy. Slices, dices, and takes a beating. It’s a hard use ranch machete that has yet to fail me, and I’ve put it through a lot. Keeps its edge remarkable well. Others have mentioned that the sheath is terrible, and it’s true. It falls out and feels like a universal sheath. Other esee sheaths are terrific, and this one is terrible. Still, though, the blade itself is ergonomic, tough, sharp and easy to use in heavy brush, giving it a 5 star in my book- but do be careful using the sheath. It will absolutely fall out

## Questions & Answers

A: The Darien is shipped from the factory in a polybag. The machetes from the ESEE Expat line ship in polybags instead of the boxes that the ESEE Knives ship in.

**Q: Is this covered under esees lifetime no questions asked warranty?**
A: I checked Esee's website and it does have the no questions asked warranty.

**Q: Is this a real esee product? made buy esee?**
A: No it is NOT. Very misleading product...With that said, I have been using mine for a while now and it does work well, once you get an edge put on it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very nice machete, sheath is loose.
*by J***Z on September 10, 2024*

I bought this for a hiking trip in the Appalachian mountains this weekend. It didn't get a ton of use, but was handy when it did. It feels great in hand, swings easily, and made short work of branches and thorny vines. It rained on the trip, and the blade and sheath got soaked. There was some rust on the blade the next morning, but it was very easy to clean off. The sheath does not hold the blade snug, even with the strap. In fact the strap seems to do nothing. I cut my thumb picking the sheath and blade up when the blade slid out a couple of inches. It can be avoided if very careful, but I feel the snap strap should be more secure. I like the machete enough that I ordered a custom Kydex sheath for it though.
