The MY Parang Duku Chandong 10" is a compact and reliable parang made exclusively by hand in Malaysia, using time-honoured methods and only the finest materials available. It features a hand-quenched 10-inch blade made of high quality 5160 high carbon steel, fitted with a comfortable and traditional handle design made from renewably-sourced beech.

The traditional parang is embedded in everyday life and culture throughout Malaysia, where great pride is taken in crafting these heavy-duty tools. For this model, each blade has been sourced from Bidor in Perak, an area well known for its hardened 5160 carbon steel blades. The tang follows the conventional 'rat-tail' construction, a proven design that has withstood the test of time and evolution. For added confidence, the blade is also pinned underneath the copper collar using a 2.5 mm brass pin.

Maintain your parang by keeping it sharp and oiled, and always remember to use it responsibly; any abuse or misuse could potentially result in serious damage or injury.

Very nice quality item, husband very pleased. Only gripe, it would be nice to see the belt loop on sheath made for a left handed person, otherwise nicely made.

It looks the part and well made, but it did take a few hours to get the blade up to where I felt it should be. There is a nice weight to it that you could work with for prolonged periods of time. So far its main use has been working with willow and clearing brush. Overall I'm happy with it.

Great parang. Well made, the steel quality is what it should be and looks really beautiful. The blade is straight. Definitely not a paper weight and well-priced, a working tool that should last many years if not a lifetime if you look after it. I am very happy. The delivery service was excellent, well worth the 6 quid or there about, thanks folks to all involved.

As usual, the order was delivered promptly and was very well packaged. The Parang itself truly is a piece of art. I have used it on three days out, so far, and have found it to be very well made, uses have included chopping undergrowth, chopping kindling, fire lighting, it was even sharp enough out the box to make feather sticks for the early part of the fire-lighting process, and is still as sharp now as the day I bought it. This is going to be a piece of kit that you will pass down through the generations. Thank you Woodlore.
