Tactical Knives Magazine November 2005 just hit the newstands with a great article written by Jerry Van Cook. The article covers the new Ontario Produced /Worden designed SPECIAL FORCES MACHETE. This is a massive blade with dynamic tactical features and has been well received at the Industry SHOT SHOW and the recent BLADE SHOW in Atlanta just a month or so ago, looks like a release date is coming this September. Additionally another article will be featured in an upcoming KNIVES ILLUSTRATED magazine as well. I have produced an instructional DVD and will have some available at the upcoming Ohio Seminar hosted by Dan McConnell.
Below is a short prospective on the DVD as well as a brief statement on the Special Forces machete.

Machete Video
I just watched Kelly Worden's new Machete DVD featuring his Ontario Special Forces Machete. It was pretty damn good. Started out with an intro by Robert H. showing all the cool features of the Ontario Special Forces Machete.
After the intro Mr. Worden gets into the uses of a machete as a tactical tool. Shows alot of what Modern Arnis is about along with what you can do with a machete that has a clip point and a sharpened top edge. All the Bowie knife guys out there will love this DVD. The problem I found is where do I get one of those SF Machete's? I haven't seen them on the market yet. Supposed to come in two sizes also. If anyone out there knows where I can get a SF Machete I would be seriously interested.

Ontario will be releasing Worden's SF Machete in the very near future -
You can always contact Ontario and ask for either a release date or distributor near you -
It is an awesome design, original in every respect, and Worden has laid down a training program based on his work with the 1st Special Forces Group on the use of the machete in CQB - something SF soldiers have for years been interested / trained on a small scale in (machete H2H).
Worden's introduction of this unique H2H item can be considered in equal stature with Peter LaGana's design, development, and training of our SF forces in his ATC Tomahawk. Now, between the ATC 'hawk and Worden's SF Machete, there is a truly dynamic duo of close quarter edged weaponry and training outside the realm of strictly knife CQB.
