Most people knowledgeable about pruning palm trees know that some type of blade is required. Though old, dry fronds do not harm the tree, they can become unsightly if left for too long. A dense, shaggy mass often remains where the dry fronds broke from the tree, which can build up and become a fire hazard and a favorite nesting spot for rodents. With as many different palms as there are, it would be hard to recommend a specific machete for this task, but we can give some suggestions.
Palm trees are very sensitive to damage to their trunks, so utmost care must be taken when removing spent fronds. Generally speaking, pruners can better control their blades if they choose a machete with either a straight or concave cutting edge. Both provide more control compared to a machete with a convex, slicing blade. Sickle like blades have the further advantage of gathering the fronds together right before cutting them.
Since palm fronds are usually not woody, a lightweight machete is preferred to avoid fatigue. Avoid heavy blades.
Machetes with a hook have the advantage of allowing the uses to pull down vegetation to within reach.

Yeah, a heavy blade will give you much more force than what is needed to trim a palm tree.
