A Machete

The Machete is a relatively powerful and fast melee weapon in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, Liberty City Stories and Vice City Stories. When a pedestrian is struck and not killed with the machete it produces a larger blood trail than the Meat Cleaver. The machete is a generally good all around choice for your melee slot in the absence of the Chainsaw. The Machete is styled not after the usual Brazilian straight-grip, large blade variety used for clearing brush, but the Indian Gorkha Regiment's Khukri fighting knife, which is a fearsome weapon in and of itself. In it's "stories" renditions, the HUD icon and the in-game version for the machete looks a lot like a lengthened knife.
