ESEE Model 5 3D Fixed Blade Black Fixed Blade Knife [5PB-002]

ESEE Model 5 3D Fixed Blade Black [5PB-002]

Military SERE instructors helped develop the ESEE-5 as a downed-pilot survival knife. Its quarter-inch blade stock and saber grind make it a deliberately heavy-duty design, rather than a larger copy of the thinner ESEE-4. A bow-drill divot is incorporated into the handle design.

This 3D version uses contoured handle scales on the corresponding ESEE blade pattern. The contour changes the gripping surface; the model retains its own standard sheath pattern.

The carbon-steel edge needs cleaning and drying after use. A blade coating protects the covered surfaces while leaving the sharpened edge exposed.
