    I found this in the woods with my metal detector. it is my first ever metal detector find and i was hoping somebody would know the age and make of it. If so, that would be great.

      If the handle is plastic & the blade is about 1/8 ", it is just one of those cheap Amer. imitations of a real machete.

      Keep hunting - and better luck next time!
      You gotta dig thru a lot of rusty nails for each silver quarter, sure - but it's the thrill of the chase that matters.

      Blunderbuss2 just so you know the handle is metal and not plastic

      Probably aluminium & that, I think, would make it military. The U.S. still used those flimsy thin blades. Probably to cut down on weight.

      hi blunderbuss2 if you do know what year or time period it was made in it would be great. thanks

      They made these during WWII & still make them. The metal grips probably mean military but they still make them, so I don't know if it would be an easy search.
