I don't know how much that knife is sold for but given the simple shape of it... it could constitute a simple homemade project. Leaf spring steel, angle grinder, a few files... and off you go!
The one I showed was like $40 on the site it was listed at. No idea on the shipping cost. It would save me the time since I'll be severely strapped for time (it's a good thing) for the next few months.
Years ago I was part of a survey crew and bought what I called a pineapple knife that looked much like the one you're looking at except for the handle was a simpler design. It cut. But it was too short as the briars and so forth did a number on my hands. So, my sense of the subject knife is it would work for occasional chopping much like you describe. I think you might be better off or certainly as well off with a short machete (10-12") and just strap it onto the bike frame. From what I own that is semi knife-like, I would choose the Condor Kumunga for a task like this.
So, did you get to try the combo? Did it work ok for your needs??
