The Machete is a close combat weapon, introduced in Left 4 Dead 2.

Location
Machetes are a relatively common tool in rural areas, explaining its high spawn rate in-game.

It can be found in the following campaigns:


 * Swamp Fever
 * The Parish
 * Death Toll (Left 4 Dead 2 only)
 * Blood Harvest (Left 4 Dead 2 only)
 * Cold Stream
 * The Last Stand (Left 4 Dead 2 version)

Pros

 * Very fast swing speed (the fastest sharp melee weapon in-game).
 * Can be used to cut a Smoker's tongue.

Cons

 * Short range.
 * Attacks may obstruct the user's vision.
 * Not recommended for killing Boomers due to bile showering the attacker and any nearby Survivors.
