I have one of these hook-bill machetes. I bought mine from surplus when I was a kid and used it to chop firewood when camping. Lost the handle years ago but it is in a leather sheath stamped J.E. Lortie Montreal 1942. The metal is marked in raised letters CF8F 1942 and also has a G inside a diamond. No C broad arrow so always wondered if they were military or not. Always wondered what they were used for as well. Cheers Brian
