The give command only works to the select weapoons that already exist within the map file.

in otherwords machetie only spawns in thoes maps as an alternative to the katana

same reason you cant give yourself the golf club on any map besides the passing or a guituar on a campaign like dead centre

it needs to be in the maps loot pool in at least 1 of its chapters for it to be given to the player (e.g dark carnival only has bile spawns in chapter 1 ut you can give it to yourself any time)

as for the reason for such a design choice idk maybe its something to do with how the director spawns in weapons / melee weapons and its rng (like maybe unless disabled itl spawn in saidd campaign even tho its not meant to)

Not all campaigns have machete, just like how not all campaigns have katana. You can check via console. If you type "give ma" but the auto suggestion doesn't show "give machete", then machete is not available in that campaign.
