ESEE Knives

Whether you are camping, hunting, fishing, hiking, or just meandering outside, it is always a good idea to have a knife on you. It is even better to have a sharp pocket knife and a fixed blade knife.

A pocket knife can be used to do a lot of the smaller more intricate cutting tasks that might be required and is small enough that it won't get in its own way when doing so.

ESEE makes knives in several sizes and configurations.

I believe in carrying a fixed blade knife on or in my pack most of the time when doing something outside because a fixed blade knife is going to be a lot stronger and more durable that its little brother, the pocket knife. With a fixed blade knife, you cut wood, start a fire (if you have a fire starting rod or flint), and even defend yourself. In my humble opinion, one of the best fixed blade knife brands on the market is ESEE.

ESEE specializes in fixed blade knives that are tough enough for any task you throw at them. I own an ESEE 4 knife that I have put through hell in the time I have owned it and because of the quality that it was made with, you can hardly tell.

When you buy an ESEE knife, you are getting more that a hunk of sharp metal. You are getting a finely designed and roughly tested knife that will handle anything that you can.

Most ESEE knives come with a kydex plastic sheath that has adjustable retention screws in order to hold the knife with just the right amount of force that you need. You can also attach the sheath to nearly anything by using molle-loks, tek-loks or any number of accessories

ESEE knives receiving their patented powder coat finish.
Made out of 1095 carbon steel that is easy to sharpen and hold an edge for a long time, ESEE definitely knew what they were doing when they designed these knives. They are also covered in a tough, bed-liner like powder coating that helps protect from rust and scratches. The knives themselves come razor sharp out of the box.

But by far, my favorite thing about ESEE knives is the warranty. These guys really stand behind their product and aren't afraid to back up their talk of making some of the toughest knives around. ESEE's warranty is a no questions asked replacement guarantee. I have heard several stories of people abusing their knives just for the sake of it, and after they were damaged or broke, ESEE replacing them for free. While I don't condone damaging your knife on purpose, it is good to know if something happens to it, the company that made it has your back. In fact, I have heard from 2 or 3 people a story of someone accidentally (or on purpose) cutting their ESEE knife in half with a blow torch and ESSEE replacing it within a few days.

ESEE knives are available in several different lengths, colors, and blade options so if you are looking for a new fixed blade knife, don't hesitate to pick up an ESEE.
