The BMC Chopra Machete (Bolo/Parang Hybrid) 100% Made in UK - Newly released in Summer 2023!
The BMC Chopra has been in the works for almost 3 years of design, testing and tweaking. It's a 100% Made in Britain Machete inspired by both traditional Bolo and Parang patterns.
You probably have not heard of us before, but that's OK. We are in this for the long run - please check our website, Instagram and Kickstarter for more details before writing us off! Also, please just ask if you have ANY questions.
The Chopra is a beautiful, forward weighted heavy-duty medium weight Chopper with excellent reach and a super ergonomic handle. Limbing trees, processing firewood, making camp, creating traps and clearing trails has never been so enjoyable!
As a launch promo - we are offering it at almost half price... They are in production, but ordering one now gets a low serial no. and optiosn with more accessories and that lower price.
Details Here.
