Gerber® Gator® Machete and Gator® Machete Jr.
Published May 23, 2014 · Recall initiated: March 9, 2010
What's the 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.
What to do
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.
