I was cruising REI outlet, and they have machetes for $184. They're a little skinny for my taste, but I figured someone might want to take a stab at 'em. cheap volant machetes
I noticed in the description that: "Machete flash graphics provide eye-catching contrast against white winter snow". HOLY SHIT, i've had such problems with not being able to see my skis, this will make it all better.
