Herbertz CJH Heavy Machete Dark Wood, Black 420 (ART000122)
- Professional machete from the German brand Herbertz, designed for heavy and prolonged use. Ideal for challenging terrains as well as everyday tasks.
CJH Heavy Dark Wood, Black – a professional machete from the German brand Herbertz CJH, designed for heavy-duty and prolonged outdoor work. Thanks to its solid construction and strong blade, it is perfect for clearing brush, preparing firewood, camp tasks, or everyday use.
AISI 420 (American Iron and Steel Institute) rich in 0.15% carbon, containing min. 12% chromium, a martensitic stainless steel that offers high hardenability (in the 54-56 HRC range) and strength and excellent corrosion resistance. The high carbon content produces chromium carbide compounds, providing wear resistance and edge retention after hardening. Due to its high hardness, the steel is suitable for manufacturing cutting tools and knife blades.
Blade – a wide Drop Point blade, finished with an anti-reflective Black Coating that enhances durability and protects against corrosion. The plain cutting edge delivers exceptional cutting performance with full force, while power transferred to the tip ensures excellent point strength. Thanks to its solid construction and well-designed blade profile, the machete performs reliably even in the toughest outdoor conditions.
Handle – contoured wooden scales attached directly to the tang with rivets. The simple, ergonomic shape provides a secure and comfortable grip. The symmetrical design of the handle allows the knife to be held in either direction, ideal for users who prefer a reverse grip.
Sheath – secured with a reliable snap, ensuring safe and convenient storage of the machete. The shaped design protects the blade from damage and allows easy carrying, for example on a belt or in outdoor gear.

This product is intended for use only by adults with knowledge and experience in handling sharp cutting tools. Improper use of the knife can result in serious injuries. The blade is extremely sharp and can easily cut through skin and tissue; therefore, extra caution should always be exercised while cutting, and hands should be kept away from the cutting edge. To prevent the knife from slipping, it is recommended to cut on a stable, non-slip surface and avoid excessive force, which may cause uncontrolled blade movement.
Leaving the knife on the edge of a table, countertop, or in easily accessible places—especially where children are present—poses a significant safety risk. The knife should always be properly secured after use, ideally by placing it on a stable surface or storing it in designated knife blocks, protective sheaths, or magnetic strips. The knife should never be used for tasks it is not designed for, such as opening cans or prying objects, as this can damage the tool and lead to dangerous accidents.
A dull blade increases the risk of injury, as it requires more force and is more likely to slip from the material being cut. Therefore, it is essential to sharpen the knife regularly to maintain optimal sharpness. Additionally, proper cleaning and drying of the knife are necessary to prevent corrosion and bacterial growth. Periodic inspection of the handle and blade is recommended to check for cracks, chips, or looseness. If any damage is detected, the knife should be repaired or replaced immediately.
When using the knife, focus solely on the task at hand—avoid talking on the phone, watching television, or other distractions while cutting. Ensure proper lighting in the workspace for better visibility and control. Please note that some countries or regions have laws restricting the ownership and carrying of knives. Before purchasing or using this knife, verify that its use is legal in your location according to applicable regulations.
Following these safety guidelines will help ensure safe and effective knife use, minimizing the risk of accidents and extending the lifespan of the tool.
