I colored and upscaled the original low quality black and white image, quality is rather poor. Chopping wounds of the head from a machete. Note the incised-like nature of wounds with cutting of underlying bone.

A chop wound is caused by a heavy weapon or instrument with at least one sharp cutting edge—e.g., axe, machete, panga; often the wound has abraded margins—which may be scraped off—and may be thus confused with a laceration; chop wounds over bone may have a groove or cut in the underlying bone—e.g., skull.

Machete injuries are a source of appreciable morbidity in many developing nations. Machetes are generally long knives with a sharp edge, a broad blade and a thick back; the end may be curved or straight whilst the handle is made of wood or leather for comfortable grip. In military conflicts in some parts of Africa, they are often used as a close-range weapon. Machetes are weapons that are easily available to rural farmers for warding off trespassers from their property.
