ESEE 5 - Could it be the Ultimate Urban Survival Knife in 2023??

Nice.

Can you put the link to eveything in? I only see the knife on the website not the whole kit

So you review knives with out using them 🤔

The problem with survival knives supposedly being the best , but the don’t have a hammer like the kbar does , just saying

You bud lighted yourself in less than 30 seconds. Good job and good luck .

Where do you get the shith for it does it come with the knife.

Sorry, man. Really wanted to watch the vid but paused immediately after you said "however you identify." Many of your viewers are put off by any woke verbiage. We are men we are women. We don't identify. I'm sure you may be a great dude, but many of us don't tolerate boot licking or respect the WOKE language. It's gross bro. Just an fyi, no hard feelings.

However you want to identify? FFS

No.

A SAK + a prybar will be better.

So many of the listings (esp the affordable ones!) are without sheaths. Is yours aftermarket? Where can one be obtained?

I have the same set up for my Survive Knives GSO 5.1 in 3V.

Could it be the Ultimate Urban Survival Knife in 2023?? And it's a BRAND NEW UNUSED knife!

Over all this is very good knife without a doubt, and it is one level higher than the bk2!
But it isn't seam to me being such a thick blade by the way!!
I think It isn't more than 6mm, has thay claim to be 6.35mm (1/4)
This knife would be ideal if would be 3 cm longer and spine 7 mm thick, and that would deserve to call it survival, fighting and outdoor knife, ore I would say a 'doomsday knife'!

No one is carrying this knife into combat. It is way too heavy. ESEE marketed this knife as useful for "downed pilots". I don't believe it was ever adopted or issued.

I disagree with you on many levels

Esee 5 my favorite knife 💪 a tank

Now this is an interesting take on the ESEE5.
Yeah, for an urban environment survival situation, it sounds more doable. [It is dreadful in the outdoors! Too short, lousy chopper, can only baton up to about 4" or so, too heavy for that length, too short/stout for a Big knife, no 90deg spine.] It will do well for prying, breaking stuff open (like crates, windows, etc) and is generally stout enough for the rough stuff. Yeah, I can see that.
But, when you start talking about the outdoors, leave the 5 at home, and take something more appropriate, as out there you'll probably need more than one cutting tool! [Saw, large knife, belt knife, and multi-tool knife).

Commiefornia considers this an illegal fully semi automatic axe

I picked up one of these to break down deer this year. Just arrived, pretty stoked on it. I got the blaze orange with the best options.

What brand is the sheath?

Funny how you acknowledge... male , female, or however you identify. I wonder if HSN does the same when selling makeup.🤣🤣🤣 Good review, bought one!

Best rust proofing is using it. Cheers

Please send me a link to the fire steel, poutch, and can you have on the ESEE5. Thanks...

Definitely not for combat. Stabs poorly, balance is off, not slicey at all, I'd take a kitchen knife over it any day for combat. Unless you're fighting cyborgs.

Had two Esee 5s. On one hand, I loved them because you really feel like they're unbreakable. But sold them both after a couple years of use. The grind sucks for bushcraft, and awkward for small camp tasks. It was just good for batoning, never had a better knife for that actually. I agree with urban survival, not for combat but because it's a sharp prybar.

Your jokes are shit, and makes for a shit video...

Got mine in blaze orange so I can find it when I put it down somewhere.😊

Why are all your knives brand new and unused?

It's still a shit knife.

I have a 3, 4, 5 & 6, I prefer the 6...MORE balanced

Overbuilt tank. Designed for fighter pilots which there are very few of. And even fewer trapped in a downed plane. But if I could only take one knife. I'd grab the one I know I couldn't break.

Have you ever used that knife?

I too live in Southern California. Was a knife dealer. Why don't I have this unit in the car? Because I am older and made a choice (no longer made) long before the Esee 5 came out. Only for that reason. A thing to consider when buying a knife (or almost anything) is as follows. If you are going to rely upon a unit and keep your life simple, don't buy a product unless it is 10% better. So, yes, the 5 is more than 10% better than the 4 for urban survival, for example.

And the best part is that it doesn't have that big choil.

Your thumbnail has a green sheath where can I find that!

Almost blunt out of the box , so I convexed the edge of mine . It's a bruiser. Cheers

I went with the Esee 5 as my urban survival knife because I think ingress/egress is high priority for urban.

Can you get the 6 with this holster?

I would have loved to have a kit like that when I served in the Marines in the 1980's, but they didn't make anything remotely that good back then.

Love mine. So heavy duty; Here in Florida as long as you’re not a convicted felon, ANYONE can carry ANY knife or firearm concealed. No permits needed. Just have to be 18…seems to be working ok; just the normal amount of shootings and stabbings. Every day.

Where can i get a pouch like this ?

My Winkler, HALF FACE BLADES , and TOOR knives absolutely blow that away. That is a cheap knife, and a no good sheath. Survival is not an accident get a good knife your survival might depend on it.

Where can i get this sheath?

I love my Esee 5 but it is so thick that I really can't find a good use for it. I ended up leaving it in my vehicle and it would probably best used to smash a window if needed.

I would not try to pry open a door with it. There are other tools for that. Do not forget a Sillcock Key for Urban Survival and Get Home Bag.

Yup, as soon as I saw it, it reminded me of the Becker BK-2.

Does that sheath pouch fit a Fjalraven DC4? Could be useful to put a field sharpener in there instead of an empty can.

I own one. It is indestructible.

Stupid fucking sheath. Mall ninja is strong in this one...

Not something you're going to go hiking with? Who the fuck goes hiking without a proper survival knife at the very least? The Esee 5 is my EDC knife.

Where did you get the sheath? Does it come with it?
