Dec 28 2020 - 5:43

If you are a fan of hard working survival knives, then you probably already know about the incredible products offered by ESEE Knives. Every knife model that ESEE makes is designed to perform in the field and we are happy to keep a wide variety of these knives in stock. If you have been interested in trying one of their knives, today we’re taking a look at a few things that we love about ESEE Knives.

Experience

Even if you are already familiar with the knives ESEE makes, you might not know about their origins. The founders of ESEE Knives, Jeff Randall and Mike Perrin, were both professional survival training instructors long before they started designing knives. These two worked in South America with the Peruvian Air Force providing jungle survival training in the Amazon. After years of training in the jungle, the two moved back to the states and started offering their survival training services while also helping to design knives for some popular knife companies.

After spending some time designing knives, these two survival experts decided to form their own knife manufacturing company while continuing to offer wilderness survival training through their business Randall’s Adventure Training. Now, ESEE is a major knife maker known for producing full tang knives that are perfect for any survival kit. They produce a wide range of knives from small fixed blade options like the ESEE Candiru to massive chopping blades like the ESEE Junglas.

The entire ESEE team is also built around a passion for knives and survival products. Mike and Jeff started ESEE Knives because they wanted to start making the kind of survival gear that they would actually want to use themselves. Even now, years later, the entire ESEE team is still dedicated to wilderness survival skills. Their employees average around 100 total days in the field per year and that means that their knives are constantly being put to the test by the same people who help make them.

Quality Construction

Every ESEE Knife is designed with performance in mind, but design features can only do so much. What really makes a knife is the materials used to manufacture it and ESEE Knives are built to last. Most ESEE Knives are constructed using 1095 carbon steel, though they do offer some stainless steel products. The reason they use 1095 high carbon steel is because it is easy to sharpen and holds its edge well. 1095 is an industry favorite because, combined with an effective grind and heat treatment, it makes a phenomenally versatile blade. In order to protect their carbon steel blades from corrosion, most ESEE knives are powder coated to offer extra protection from the elements.

In addition to using sturdy 1095 steel, most ESEE knives also feature Micarta and G10 handle scales. These composite materials are created by layering sheets of binding material with epoxy resin and curing them under pressure. The resulting material is one of the strongest handle scale materials on the market. These materials are not only extremely durable and water resistant, but they can be textured to offer a comfortable grip.

An Incredible Warranty

The team at ESEE are so confident in their products that they offer a no questions asked warranty to fix or replace any broken ESEE knife. This is one of the best warranty deals available in the knife industry. Basically if you find a job that is too tough for you ESEE knife and you manage to break it, you’re either going to get your knife fixed or they will send you a new one.

It’s this kind of dedication to their products that makes ESEE such an amazing knife maker. That’s just one of the reasons why we are so happy to offer these knives to our customers. To make it even better, ESEE warranties are fully transferable. This means that if you buy the knife as a gift or pass it on to a friend or family member, the warranty is transferred as well.
