NitroX,

From it's shape, my guess would be simular use to a machete. The shape also reminds me of some the machetes I saw used in Mauritius for cutting sugarcane many years ago.

Besides cutting small trees and bushes, or hacking your way thru the jungles of Congo, I wouldn't think there is much you could use it for in real life when it comes to hunting.
Unless you plan to chop up the animal into little pieces!

Am I right? If not, what's the correct answer?
