ESEE3 S35V Fixed Blade Knife, 3D Contoured Handle, Ambidextrous Polymer Sheath, Made in USA

ESEE might be the best manufacturer of fixed blades in the world. I own many ESEE knives, and I have never been disappointed. This particular knife is my favorite, and the reason is that it's so comfortable to use and just cuts anything with ease. This is probably the sharpest knife I've ever owned on a fixed blade. This knife is very versatile, as you can use it literally for anything. If you're a minimalist, this knife is excellent for survival and bushcraft applications. This knife would also make a nice utility knife or even a hunting knife. Another thing is that this knife is small enough to where you could edc it, and you would forget it's even on you. Obviously, this knife can't do everything due to its size, but this knife will not rust on you either. If you're camping and have either an ESEE 5, 6 or a Junglus for heavy duty jobs like processing wood, then this knife here will do everything else you need including food prep, dressing game, and serving as an outstanding utility knife while also excelling at the finer bushcrafting applications. You will enjoy this knife, but be darn careful when you use it, because this knife don't take no prisoners when it comes to cutting.

New EDC. This knife is borderline perfect. Arrives razor sharp right out of the box. The ESEE clip is easily installed in seconds with a basic screwdriver. Has a nice finger notch in the bolster for precision cutting/carving work. If you're looking for a good fixed blade, all-around knife for an EDC ... look no further. This one is a keeper.

Very handy size. Great blade profile. Super handle. Fantastic fit and finish. Superior materials.Would happily repurchase and recommend.

We live on 8 acres of pasture and we are surrounded by 1,800 acres of woods and pasture. I realized very quickly that a good multi tool and a great knife are worth their weight in gold. I’ve been looking for the perfect knife to carry on my hip while doing work around the property and I have found it. I originally ordered the 1095 version, but the Texas heat and humidity will expose the knife to a lot of sweating. This knife is meant for work, I’m not batoning with the s35vn. This thing is holding its edge wonderfully and I trust that it won’t be rusting due to the moisture from my body. This has cut twine, cut off small twigs for a fire, cuts the super thick line for a walk behind trimmer, opens chicken feed and cuts through thick straps on new equipment and packaging like butter. I’ll camp with my esee 6, and this will be on my hip. I’ll work and this will be on my hip. I understand this will be more brittle than 1095, but I needed the edge retention and stainless qualities over the beat-ability. The seller is also wonderful. I’ve sent back 2 knives to them due to me receiving them and the knives not being what I was looking for. I’ve also ordered an additional 4 or 5 from them and all have been shipped promptly and arrived as pictured.

They did an excellent job getting the order to me. Their packaging is on the thin side. They should package it in another box. It is safer. The knife is excellent for my purpose. It not big, and it is not small. It willdo what I wanted to do. Great feel in hands. It cuts good too. ESEE knows how to make knives that can be used for years with proper care.Thanks

Great steel!Most survival knifes are made of 1095 high carbon steel. It has many good properties. Steel resistance is not one of them. That's where this knife comes in. If you want a lower maintenance steel this is it. It might give up some of the capabilities of the 1095 steel but it makes up for them in rust resistance. Plus it comes with Esee's lifetime warranty which is second to none.***Here is the warranty from their site as of the date this is being written***THE FINE PRINT:Our warranty is pretty simple: if you break it, we will repair or replace it. We will not question the validity of your warranty claim for a broken knife, handles, sheath, clip plate or hardware. Warranty is lifetime and transferable. In other words, we warranty these products no matter how many times they have been traded, sold or given away – no sales receipt or proof of purchase required. We must have these products returned to validate a warranty claim.ESEE KNIVES ARE NOT THROWING KNIVES! They are hardened to a higher Rockwell than throwing knives and will most likely break if thrown, possibly harming the user. So, do yourself and your ESEE knife a favor and DO NOT throw it. Using any knife not meant to be thrown as a throwing knife is idiotic! We would rather idiots not buy our knives.We do not warranty against rust, normal wear and tear, loss, or theft. If you need replacement handles, sheaths, clip plates or hardware due to loss or normal wear, please visit our store.We do not warranty consumables found in our survival kits.Our carbon steel knives are made from 1095 High Carbon Steel. And while 1095 is a top choice for professional field knives, it will rust and stain if not properly cared for – especially on the cutting edge and around the laser engraving. It is the user’s responsibility to keep the blades properly lubricated and cleaned. It is normal for the coating to wear with use.Our stainless knives are warrantied just like our carbon steel knives. However, we advise that because they are hardened to a higher Rockwell hardness than our carbon steel knives, they are easier to break if you pry with them.This no-questions-asked warranty only applies to ESEE Knives and EXPAT Knives. All Avispa and Zancudo folder warranty requests must go to Blueridge Knives (not ESEE Knives), since we do not manufacture these products.

Im not a knife expert but this knife is absolutely amazing. First the blade was very very sharp out of the box. ive used it quite a bit in the last week and its still very sharp. ive had the 1095 morakniv and the becker companion ka bar which was way too big and heavy for what i wanted which was a practical every day carry knife. Even the mora was a bit long. The blade length on this knife is perfect in my opinion and the handle feels very good in your hand! If i ever was to want a bigger knife id definitely want this same s35vn steel and it would definitely be another esee
