Diplomat Machete | Backpacking, Survival + Bushcraft | CPM-MagnaCut Steel | Scorched Earth

Living off the land requires skill, tenacity and some seriously tough tools. Build out your ultimate survival kit with the Diplomat in .210” CPM-MagnaCut, a rock solid chopper that will help you get a rudimentary roof over your head in a hurry. 

A mega bush chopper by design, this big-bladed badass blasts through the thickest undergrowth, taking on heavy duty shelter building and bushcrafting with ease. Strike out and blaze your own trail with the Diplomat.

The Diplomat is built from .210" CPM-MagnaCut, one of the toughest and most highly refined cutlery steels available, milled at one of the last surviving steel mills in the United States. CPM-Magnacut is highly resistant to corrosion or staining, and thanks to our own specialty heat treat, Dawson blades stay sharp up to twice as long as other premium steels. Rockwell C 61-62.

Our American-made G10 stands up to rain, snow, mud and just about anything else you can think of. We design all our handles for secure, comfortable, hot-spot free use in all seasons and textured them for improved grip when the going gets wet.

Backed by an industry-leading warranty and over 50 years' knifemaking experience, the Diplomat is a stronghold of American quality and craftsmanship.
