ESEE Model 5 black blade, desert tan handle 5P-KO survival knife without sheath

The ESEE model 5 is a solid survival knife with a 1095 carbon steel blade. The extremely sustainable powder coating on the blade helps to protect it from the major rust sensitivity of carbon steel. The amazing utilisation properties of the steel make sure you will enjoy it for life. The full tang blade has been enhanced with a micarta handle. This handle feels slightly rough which is great for the grip and comfort. The ESEE model 5 is a large and solid knife which can handle heavy-duty tasks. Compared to the other ESEE-models the ESEE 5 has a relatively thick 6.5 mm blade. In case these measurements and the weight are too much the Model 4 or Model 3 are great, and smaller, alternatives.
