Gerber Legendary Blades Recalls Machetes Due to Laceration Hazard

CPSC · 10157 · published 2010-03-09

CPSC campaign 10157

Hazard

The saw side of the machete can stick in wood during use, and if the user's hand slips off the handle and slides forward across the machete blade, this poses a laceration hazard.

Remedy

Consumers should stop using the recalled machetes immediately and contact Gerber to receive instructions on how to return the machete for a free replacement machete.
