Esee 5 - Test

[@guns4funcajanajustin]

The beast of the ESEE knives! One of the sharp blade right out of the box and one that stays sharp. The bow drill socket work well on this one as well! Great review brother!

[@truman5838]

"This thing is so thick and broad, no shock ,no slippage, not yet anyway,that's so perfectly rounded,it feels great actually " that's what she said!

[@CironWmaidenS]

I bought myself an Esee 4 a while back for my edc fixed blade. I have got to say it is one of the best performing knives I have ever owned. Very impressed to say the least, would recommend any day. Love your vids by the way, Tac. Keep em' comin'

[@Veesaki]

You guessed it exactly a refined BK2 , without a doubt ! You're right it takes little time to realize you have good knife in your hands. You're right about sabre grinds also. ; the best of all worlds. Great review !

[@ryanc5681]

Where can you find them for 95? I paid 160 on Amazon for that thing

[@bernielomax5908]

Out of all of my fixed blades I keep returning to this one. Awesome vid!

[@Smurffitness]

nice , My first fixed blade in a long time was a esee Azula , FANTASTIC little blade. tough as hell .

[@rainmayhem4255]

Tac if you snap it they replace it no questions asked. Great video

[@knallis2969]

Hi Tac. I like your uploads. Informative, fun and to the point. You also have a voice that make me belive in what you are talking about. Like your voice and it suits this kind of program.( and that coming from a hetero guy) And you are hard testing the gear, and you are telling about cons and pros. Got to like that. And best of all, you are not selling your self out like a lot of other popular survaival youtubers do after they got some subscribers...... so, all in all. Please continue the Good work and upload videos to is all.

[@totallyrandomstuffandrevie9609]

I own the Esee 5 and agree with your review completely. I like mine so much I had a guy make me a custom dangler sheath for it. it truly is a beast, when it gets warmer I'll do a review on the stump a Destiny and I will test the tip to see if I can break it, thanks for another great review brother.

[@patrickmulligan3101]

We went to the junk yard and pried open multiple car doors. No issues

[@cjbelgrave]

I have a few Esee knives and thanks to you Tac I'm adding this one to my collection. Thumbs up bro.

[@californiaknifenut9569]

That's funny. Searched for a review and found one from one of my favorite knife channels posted the same day

[@TACHILL]

hell yea brother! you cannot go wrong with Esee! th Esee6 is my fav blade... the dirt will whipe right off that coating.. their coatings are great and you really gotta work to get through it! great review bro!

[@lfratta]

Hell yeah, badass knife! Got mine knife only for $93, bought a better(in my opinion) custom kydex sheath on eBay for $29 with a Tek-lock and love it. I wouldn't be worried about breaking the tip, especially with their warranty!

[@jiujitsu2000]

That knife is awesome! Thank you for the vid my brotha TAC!

[@BlazinBlades]

I Think i gotta splurge and go Esse 5... oh yeah! Cheers 🍻 BB

[@supertrampalex]

Esee 5 is my dream knife, great review brother!

[@brianmccann666]

Great Review bro... "It Thick & Wide" That's what she said...

[@austinblackburn]

Keep it oiled and you'll love it. I own it. It just keeps going and going.

[@mamutadventure3310]

yeah disturbed, oh and tactical FOREVER

[@zetterberg]

Ilove this knife. Regretted the price I paid for it because I already have a bk7. But im finding im grabbing this knife everytime for wood processing and the yard.

[@kwak1k]

Sweet blade. With Christmas approaching, I better start talking a lot about how cool it is, see if the missus takes the bait :)

[@joeyjones9041]

Thats the exact color and everything i plan on getting. Right now i have an Ontario Knife Company SP-10 Raider Bowie and its awesome, my wife even chopped a tree down with hers lol, but I'd rather have a drop point verses the clip point.

[@moonie3517]

I was just going to ask you to make a review about this knife. That's amazing!

[@MrSIXGUNZ]

your still the man TACT !! heck I don't need a ball buster or I mean a nut smasher lol thanks much😇😇

[@threeper7929]

I believe what sets this knife apart from the bk2 in its abilities is the difference in grind heights. I think the bk2's saber grind starts higher than the esee 5's. I have a bk2 and an esee 6 and love em both but the 5 keeps calling my name!!!! Love the vid. Take it easy playboy.

[@johnnyeas1431]

Did you ever get the esee 5? And if you did, do you prefer the esee 5 over the bk2? The only reason im asking is because I'm getting ready to by either a esee 5 or a bk2. It's a hard choice because I like the tip more on the esee 5 but i like the steel more on the bk2.

[@threeper7929]

@@johnnyeas1431 I never did get the 5. I’m with you on the steel choice, Kabars Cro-van in my opinion is a better steel. I used my bk14 and an esee 3 to dress a deer I had shot and the esee dulled way before the bk14. So that sealed the deal on esee knives for me.

[@RobbieT015]

Thanx for the review Tac,also sharpening is verry easy on those Esee's

[@nunesbarry1]

thats one my favorite knives plus you cant beat the warranty next to my bk7 the esee 5 is badass

[@travisroberts6893]

Nice another lll%er !! Long live the republic

[@travisroberts6893]

Oh yeah I fckn love my bk7 one for my top 5 favorite blades

[@shaunfarar]

my dad and I got our 5 in last week a day after junglas and did some testing saturday, I don't know what kind of wood it was but hard af and the 5 made it look like butter

[@crosshair64]

I have two Esee 5"s and a 6...... Both are good blades.... I like my Bk 2 a little better because of the handle scale design.... I stripped the coating off the bk 2 and opted for micarta scales on it also..... The scale design on the Esee's are to skinny for my extra large hands, so the bk 2 is my favorite 5...... Thank you for sharing your thoughts and opinion on this blade, I appreciate it sir Tac

[@kakashi1234777]

Check out the knife connection 3D scales for esse knives. I got a 3D green micaeda scale and love it for my esse 6

[@johnniewalker3134]

Would you recomend this knife over the esse 6 or the other way around i have my sights on set for the esee 6. Also esee6 with or with out the sharpened swedge

[@newbyfollome]

tac, why do your older videos have comments disabled?

[@bombsawaylemay770]

Esee 5, aw yeah

[@mandomaldonado4498]

" I got shiii in here????" high larious bro!

[@LargeKnives]

That's a good looking knife. I second that Tac should get to design a blade.

[@survivalmike]

Nice test brother. this thing kicks ass. yeah.

[@8triagrammer]

Would love to see a review of this knife with a paracord wrap instead of the handle. A common gripe with this knife is the blocky handle. I have one and must admit the ergos on the handle could be better.

[@mikes_.5_cent]

Are there any knives you would consider a 9 or better ?

[@Gloern24]

where can u find an esee 5 for $95???! at that price I'd love to get one

[@Vlka_Fenryka]

Great review, thank you for posting it.

[@jeramylawlor3890]

Very good review.Am a big fan of esse

[@Peed58]

I have the Esee-6 with the sharpened swedge on the tip. I kind of wish I had gotten the one without the swedge sharpened though..I might look into selling my BK2 and get this though. I just can't get used to the BK2 handle..

[@survivaliskey4383]

tactical needs to make his own knife!!!

[@AngryFishing]

hell yrah

[@survivaliskey4383]

That would be a beast ass blade knowing tac!!

[@cjbelgrave]

I agree, it should be a machete named "The Tac-cheté'

[@survivaliskey4383]

that would be bad ass

[@ComicKidzz]

Would need to be something as crazy as him, like a short sword that can be shot out of a pistol lol.

[@richard_steen]

You should try the Steel Will darkangel. Awesome knife and sheath setup!

[@noahgawkowski8143]

Great video tac! keep up the good work

[@cbr600rrturbo]

He He Shamawn

[@robertomora5154]

nice brotha

[@johnmoder5306]

You got another channel? How did I miss this? Why didn’t you call me?

[@evagelosntalas2580]

Tac do you prefer ka bar bk2 or esse 5

[@guncotton1950]

buddys been trying to sell me his essee 5 for awhile but it has some minimal serrations so im still thinking about it dont dig the serrations alot except veff and only sometimes but i like that its nicer than a bk2 comes with the micarta handles too

[@vctgoosekiller5057]

Hey tac do you think one day you can do a batoning shootout

[@bushcrfter7917]

would you use it for a go to blade for shtf?

[@AdamMMA88]

tac! do you know where i can find a esee laser strike for around 80 85 smackers cheapest i found was 99 bucks i told myself id buy it it i could find it cheap thanks playboy!

[@dannyschreckengost1973]

tac, u should try to get the schrade SCMACH18CP outback machete and test it. yes I know what a long name. but I was looking on amazon and came across it and it will only run you 19 bucks. I was looking at machetes and was wondering if you can test it out for me

[@ac10xxz]

have the green version, have split about 3cubic m of wood over 1 year, it held up good but i guess the blade is beyond sharpening.

[@travisroberts4886]

What's up tac good video as always , and yeah it looks like a fckn beast at batoning and shit it's thick enough to be used as s pry bar if needed . Exact color I was thinking about getting . I love all my Esee's . And they hands down have the best warrany !!!!!! even if you snap it in half trying to pry open car door or what ever they will replace with NO QUESTIONS ASKED !!! That is only for the 1095 blades . Do u own any other Esee's

[@inquisitor4635]

" A bunch of fire starters" Wrapped in Zig Zag rice paper no less? Blue tarp on the firewood...winter is coming soon my friend. Just put everything away from summer, stocked the wood, pulled out the trail skis...ready to wax.

[@BlazinBlades]

Thank you Buddy Thumbs up and subbed to your "unplugged" channel as well ✌️

[@scouttroop291]

cool tool love see make on in snow camo green and white look so bad ass

[@isabellacammalleri8489]

Hey tac are those sheath's available for left handed too????

[@survivalmike]

I'm not Tac, however I can tell you that this sheath already is for lefties too. the belt clip is just screwed on and you can easy switch it to the other side. that's the good thing of kydex sheaths and screwed on attachments. hope this was helpful Mike

[@MrWmburr7]

"What the H*ll do I got in here?" . . . crude, unrefined, but engaging and unconventionally, refreshingly satisfying! You definitely have a unique, irreverent review style, Brother. Btw, I like my ESEE-5 also. Thanks for the great video. I'm subscribing!!!

[@cbr600rrturbo]

William Burr welcome my friend

[@thejoker73utoob]

I wanna get an Esee 5 that's such a badass knife

[@michaelstjohn6086]

Wish ESEE would make a 1/4" Junglas. Good vid Tac.

[@New2Kendo]

Checkout the El Chete it's the closest I have found to what I want in a Chopper

[@SurvivalZoneAfricaZA]

Thanks for this insightful views -

[@bushcraftjoe1]

Great commatary lol ok you sold me om getting one.

[@ryanc5681]

Can you show the right way to sharpen the Esee 5

[@BlackRifleSurvival]

ESEE yeeeeah!

[@noahkoenig4447]

Tac :"GET A FRICKIN JOB PEOPLE!" *proceeds to sit in the woods and baton a knife*

[@New2Kendo]

Noah Koenig exactly what I was thinking. Is this guy doing a satire? Is this guy doing a satire? Like I said it's like Ask a Ninja meets Bushcraft

[@johnmoder5306]

Nobody here seems to have a little sense of humor... And BTW Ninja is a pretty cool Job.

[@rainmayhem4255]

He has a job dumb fuck

[@goinghardonearth8645]

Noah Koenig hater he is helping people make the right choice on knifes as a knife collector who use in the wood I have got a knife that thought was gona be awesome ended up sucking! I know you prob wish you had your u tube channel but I guess trolling and hating on others is working for you

[@benterwellen]

great review on a fine knife, ty bro'

[@averagebloke4474]

esee knives are the best! Them and or TOPS

[@Kenstagator]

I love your reviews man but I'm itching to know why you something isn't a 10. I'm itching to know why you give your numbers. Drives me crazy! Anyways awesome vid. :)

[@jorvikoutdoors]

yo Tac just got the Esee 6 it's awesome so glad I got it...hope you can do review on the 6 too.

[@kevingreen3209]

i own the 6 too and i love it,well besides the stock handles

[@johnniewalker3134]

what about the stock handles is it worth those or is a upgrade really necessary

[@kevingreen3209]

the stock handles are blocky and dont fill the hand very well. i kept trying to convince myself that this knife wouldnt fall out of my hand so did some chopping motions with it and it did fall out out of my hand onto my finger lol.i bought the g10 scales for it and im totaly confidient this knife will never fall out of my hand again

[@johnniewalker3134]

Im sold getting a Esee 6 i just made up my mind, I was thinking Becker BK7 at first was checking forums and videos all month. Can you get get the G10 scales on Amazon?

[@kevingreen3209]

theres alot of custom options for these knives.i dont recall seeing any g10 scales on amazon,i got mine thru the knive connection

[@farouq1983]

Fucking love this blade!

[@marcgardiner3886]

Tac the legend!, can you test the Crowell barker competition chopper??, give it a good time!, awww yea, is I like that esee

[@xboxisgay23]

i know you smoke the good stuff tac, yeeeeee.

[@usdm_demio]

do a review on the camilius titanium there like 10$ at Walmart they seem pretty hefty, might be a cheap jewel

[@nigelthornberry7695]

Now I know what to ask santa for Christmas

[@anothersloth309]

+Tactical you should do the esee 6

[@panamared3681]

"GOD THE TRAFFIC TODAY get a freakin job people..."

[@lamenature1420]

hi from FRANCE Tac , this knife is awesome , but you know TOPS black-rhino ? If you can , pls try this knife ! bonne journée a toi et bon courage , merci pour toutes tes super vidéos !

[@johnmutton799]

I noticed on somethings you sghow the comments are turned off. Never thought I'd se that on your channel, shame . Anyway esee 5 in UK with that pouch and stuff is nearlly £300.00 or more very pricey for a basic knife.

[@baileybeckwith7285]

definetly got to get one

[@anothersloth309]

dope review bro

[@lucianbrad4291]

Tell to my mamma ? With your little dirty jokes ? Why ? To spank me ? You're dreaming 😆😆😆😆😆😆 Just kidding ! You're awesome man !!!

[@kuailong12]

Could you test the 5.11 tanto surge? Thanks man

[@marcrhodes7177]

Great blade design on the surge but the sheath......has a dangerous flaw. if you grab the sheath to draw it out it has a notch on the blade side that the index finger wants to naturally fall into. pull the knife out that way and sever your finger! I almost severed my finger and caught myself in the nick of time! otherwise it's a lot of power in a small package. single purpose. self defense not chopping wood. needs a custom sheath no prob.

[@kuailong12]

Marc Rhodes yeah the sheath was the one thing that disturbed me since the moment I got it. But like you said, awesome knife, just not mainly usable for everyday situations

[@needsomehike]

"gay cars"..."listen to that crap..." you just made my day :)
