Review of 8" Parang Tantari Mini Chandong | Malaysian Machete

Published: 2 years ago

Urban Knife Guy reviews the Parang Tantari 8" Mini Chandong.

Parang Tantari is based out of Johor, a southern state in Pennisula Malaysia.

This mini chandong is a modern version of a duku candong.
Parang tatari makes different lengths of the mini chandong. This is the 8" and there is a 10" and 12" version.

They also make a different style Parang called the Poncho which is their version of the Golok. That has a pointed blade tip and is available in only 10" and 12" as of this video.

Tantari also currently makes 2 versions of all their parangs. This is the 2022 version that has a finger choil, rectangular collar and an ergo handle.

They also have a classic range which has all the same blade styles but features a classic round neck and swelled handle, but does not have a finger choil, or at least not as pronounced.
