The machete is good because of how cheap it is. Equipment turns your average creatures into threats, often enabling you to trade your weaker creatures for their better creatures.
Very solid card, nothing amazing about it though. Usually 1st pick in draft

Words of advice: Keep this as far away from the Unliving Psychopath as you possibly can.

This comboed so nicely with aggro soldier decks running creatures like Kor Duelist and Leonin Den-Guard. White weeny had it good in Zendikar.

@ratrase-
"Love it. The fact that you can equip it instantly is the best thing about it. For 2 mana you can quickly boost up a creature with +2/+1. And then move it to another creature as needed."
After reading this comment, I was left scratching my head, but I continued to read in case there was a reply to this. HOW is this an instantly equipable item? Am I blind? Equip by definition is at sorcery speed. Just because there is no reminder text does not change that fact. I mean, if there was some given interation between another card that was implied, I am sorry, but this card in and of its own cannot be instantly equiped to anything.
