Founded by <strong>Webster Marble in 1892<\/strong> as Marble Arms, this company is based in <strong>Gladstone Michigan<\/strong> to this day.

The <strong>convex grind<\/strong> does help reduce rolling, but it can happen with some hardwoods.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Like all carbon steels, 1075 is <strong>vulnerable to corrosion<\/strong> (though, again, less than 1095). The orange coating protects most of the blade other than the sharpened edge, so if you get your machete wet, just dry it off before you hang it up and you shouldn\u2019t have to worry too much about rust.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<style>.kb-row-layout-id_20a886-5e > .kt-row-column-wrap{align-content:start;}:where(.kb-row-layout-id_20a886-5e > .kt-row-column-wrap) > .wp-block-kadence-column{justify-content:start;}.kb-row-layout-id_20a886-5e > .kt-row-column-wrap{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);row-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);max-width:var( --global-content-width, 1290px );padding-left:var(--global-content-edge-padding);padding-right:var(--global-content-edge-padding);padding-top:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);padding-bottom:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}.kb-row-layout-id_20a886-5e > .kt-row-layout-overlay{opacity:0.30;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kb-row-layout-id_20a886-5e > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kb-row-layout-id_20a886-5e > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}}<\/style><div class=\"kb-row-layout-wrap kb-row-layout-id_20a886-5e alignnone wp-block-kadence-rowlayout\"><div class=\"kt-row-column-wrap kt-has-1-columns kt-row-layout-equal kt-tab-layout-inherit kt-mobile-layout-row kt-row-valign-top kb-theme-content-width\">\n<style>.kadence-column_a2ad52-50 > .kt-inside-inner-col,.kadence-column_a2ad52-50 > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{border-top-left-radius:0px;border-top-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-left-radius:0px;}.kadence-column_a2ad52-50 > .kt-inside-inner-col{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-sm, 1rem);}.kadence-column_a2ad52-50 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}.kadence-column_a2ad52-50 > .kt-inside-inner-col > .aligncenter{width:100%;}.kadence-column_a2ad52-50 > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{opacity:0.3;}.kadence-column_a2ad52-50{position:relative;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kadence-column_a2ad52-50 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;justify-content:center;}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kadence-column_a2ad52-50 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;justify-content:center;}}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-column kadence-column_a2ad52-50\"><div class=\"kt-inside-inner-col\"><div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/techwriteredc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/marbles-machete-handle.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12269\" srcset=\"https:\/\/techwriteredc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/marbles-machete-handle.jpg 900w, https:\/\/techwriteredc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/marbles-machete-handle-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/techwriteredc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/marbles-machete-handle-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/techwriteredc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/marbles-machete-handle-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/techwriteredc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/marbles-machete-handle-500x375.jpg 500w, https:\/\/techwriteredc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/marbles-machete-handle-800x600.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Handle &amp; Comfort<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s room for improvement when it comes to the Marble\u2019s Scout handle. This is probably the single most often-repeated complaint I\u2019ve heard about this particular machete, but I also want to point out that it\u2019s an easy fix.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The handle of the Scout is essentially just a <strong>chunk of unfinished wood. <\/strong>It feels bulky in my hand, and it also has some pretty <strong>rough edges. <\/strong>The scales are a little bigger than they need to be to cover the balde\u2019s full tang, and they simply aren&#8217;t very artfully contoured. But guess what? You can sand them down, and I highly recommend that you do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also wrap the handle in tape or paracord, which will give it some extra grip and texture. And for anybody who thinks this is all too much work, let\u2019s remember that this is a <strong>super <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/techwriteredc.com\/flissa-machete-review\/\">budget-friendly machete<\/a> and manage our expectations accordingly.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<style>.kb-row-layout-id_33b09e-90 > .kt-row-column-wrap{align-content:start;}:where(.kb-row-layout-id_33b09e-90 > .kt-row-column-wrap) > .wp-block-kadence-column{justify-content:start;}.kb-row-layout-id_33b09e-90 > .kt-row-column-wrap{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);row-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);max-width:var( --global-content-width, 1290px );padding-left:var(--global-content-edge-padding);padding-right:var(--global-content-edge-padding);padding-top:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);padding-bottom:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}.kb-row-layout-id_33b09e-90 > .kt-row-layout-overlay{opacity:0.30;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kb-row-layout-id_33b09e-90 > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kb-row-layout-id_33b09e-90 > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}}<\/style><div class=\"kb-row-layout-wrap kb-row-layout-id_33b09e-90 alignnone wp-block-kadence-rowlayout\"><div class=\"kt-row-column-wrap kt-has-1-columns kt-row-layout-equal kt-tab-layout-inherit kt-mobile-layout-row kt-row-valign-top kb-theme-content-width\">\n<style>.kadence-column_9ef8f3-0a > .kt-inside-inner-col,.kadence-column_9ef8f3-0a > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{border-top-left-radius:0px;border-top-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-left-radius:0px;}.kadence-column_9ef8f3-0a > .kt-inside-inner-col{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-sm, 1rem);}.kadence-column_9ef8f3-0a > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}.kadence-column_9ef8f3-0a > .kt-inside-inner-col > .aligncenter{width:100%;}.kadence-column_9ef8f3-0a > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{opacity:0.3;}.kadence-column_9ef8f3-0a{position:relative;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kadence-column_9ef8f3-0a > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;justify-content:center;}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kadence-column_9ef8f3-0a > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;justify-content:center;}}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-column kadence-column_9ef8f3-0a\"><div class=\"kt-inside-inner-col\"><div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/techwriteredc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/marbles-machete-best-features.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12274\" srcset=\"https:\/\/techwriteredc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/marbles-machete-best-features.jpg 900w, https:\/\/techwriteredc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/marbles-machete-best-features-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/techwriteredc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/marbles-machete-best-features-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/techwriteredc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/marbles-machete-best-features-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/techwriteredc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/marbles-machete-best-features-500x375.jpg 500w, https:\/\/techwriteredc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/marbles-machete-best-features-800x600.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Final Thoughts on the Marble\u2019s Scout Machete<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p style=\"font-size:19px\"><em>Having used the Marble\u2019s Scout Machete quite a bit, I\u2019m really happy with its performance.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s great for blazing trails and clearing undergrowth, all of which makes it <strong>great for hunters, trail maintenance workers, landscapers, farmers, <\/strong>and pretty much anybody who (like me) lives in a place where the woods are constantly threatening to reclaim your backyard.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Marble\u2019s Scout makes short work of vines and palm fronds, and it holds up quite well to some more intensive bushcraft-related jobs too. The convex Scandi grind makes the blade very good at feather-sticking, and you can also baton with it, though I wouldn\u2019t say it\u2019s 100% ideal for that.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/techwriteredc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/marbles-machete-review.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12275\" srcset=\"https:\/\/techwriteredc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/marbles-machete-review.jpg 900w, https:\/\/techwriteredc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/marbles-machete-review-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/techwriteredc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/marbles-machete-review-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/techwriteredc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/marbles-machete-review-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/techwriteredc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/marbles-machete-review-500x375.jpg 500w, https:\/\/techwriteredc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/marbles-machete-review-800x600.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>The Scout also consistently severs inch-thick branches with a single swipe, and will handle limbs significantly thicker with a series of angled chops to create a V-shaped notch. Don\u2019t think of it as a replacement for a hatchet, but will certainly do the job in a pinch.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even the orange coating holds up surprisingly well, though it will start to wear off if you consistently use your machete for heavy-duty work. You\u2019ll need to sharpen the blade more often than you would with a premium machete, but the steel takes a good edge quite easily.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Honestly, the only issue I have is with the handle, and that\u2019s an easy fix for anybody with a piece of sandpaper and a few minutes to spare. The <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/47iBPDW\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Marble\u2019s Scout Machete<\/a> usually retails for around <strong>$20,<\/strong> and you can often find these on sale for as little as<strong> $15,<\/strong> which is a steal.
