Well I have an Ontario Knife USGI 20 inch machete, my only problem is that the handle broke ( only the plastic part not the steel). So currently all i have is a blocky wooden handle with duct tape covering it. Not only is this handle pretty hard on the hands it looks like garbage. What i am asking for is ideas on how to rehandle this machete. Thanks for any help in advance

buy new handle material and learn how to shape it
or
paracord wrap it.

im goin to learn how to work handle material for my kukri, got some g10 handle material for it

Send it to Fiddleback forge and they will do a fantastic all around mod on it.

Call ,or email, Ontario to get a new handle assembly if your machete has bolted/riveted handles.

:thumb:drill out the rivets, put some hardwood scales back on it with rivets,or screwes and epoxy,then do final shaping with files and sandpaper.
