Esee Knives
The ESEE-5 was designed by military SERE (Survival, Evasion, Resistance, and Escape) instructors with a focus on hard-use survival for downed pilots and individuals in extreme situations. This robust survival knife is built for the toughest conditions, making it a go-to for those needing reliability in the most challenging environments. With a heavy-duty construction and features that cater specifically to survival scenarios, the ESEE-5 is a cornerstone in survival kits for military, tactical, and outdoor enthusiasts alike.
Crafted from 1095 carbon steel, the blade offers excellent strength and edge retention, with a textured powder coat finish for corrosion resistance. The knife has a 5.25-inch blade and a .25-inch thickness, which adds durability for heavy-duty tasks such as chopping, batoning, or prying. The saber grind ensures a strong cutting edge, and the addition of thumb jimping on the spine allows for better control during fine cutting tasks.
One standout feature of the ESEE-5 is the glass breaker pommel, making it ideal for emergency situations requiring window breaking or other impact-related needs. Additionally, the bow drill divot in the handle adds functionality for starting fires in the wilderness. The canvas micarta handle scales provide a comfortable, secure grip in all weather conditions, further enhancing its utility in survival situations.
Each ESEE-5 model (except for knife-only versions) comes with a Kydex sheath equipped with a clip plate for secure carrying. Optional MOLLE backs and pouches can be added for further customization.
This durable, USA-made survival knife is featured as the top-tier option in the Survivalist Tier of the LYNX Go-Bag by Stay Ready Outdoors. It is the ideal choice for off-road and overlanding enthusiasts who demand the best in rugged, reliable tools that can stand up to the harshest conditions.
