Well, Greg Eric, gentlemen, congratulations, you are advancing to the third and final round of this competition. They have four days of home forging to build another iconic Wild West weapon. Gentlemen, we want you to build this, this is the Vaquero machete. The machete became very popular among the original cowboys of the South

west

during the 20th century. It had a thin and slightly curved

blade

. The weapon was much lighter and easier to carry than the larger machetes previously used by cowboys, making it ideal for delivering damaging slashes and slashes throughout. From the brush to the enemies on the great Frontier, the rich history and culture of the cowboys who carry this weapon can be found on display at the Bullock Museum in Austin, Texas, so good luck, see you in four days.
