FINALLY! a review where the knife is actually USED! :) I laugh at all the 'reviews' out there where the knife looks like it just came out of the box. how can people do an accurate review on a knife if they have never used it? thanks for the fantastic review. :)

This is without a doubt the very best survival knife video I have ever seen! Extremely thorough, detailed and informative! You definitely know what your talking about and what you are doing! You are a genuine outdoor survivalist! A couple months ago I purchased the Esee 5 and after watching this video I am so happy I did! I learned so much by your video that I will view it serval more times so that I can retain all the information you put into it! Keep up the good work!

Looks like a great knife. Can't think of too many people I would watch this long. If it were just about the knife, maybe i would have checked out. But your skills and the effortless way (at least it seems so)you go from task to task without talking them to death, and the multitude of skills you demonstrate, without even commenting on them, make this a video I will watch again, several times. Thanks for a great job and "personal sacrifices".(Cuts, scrapes, sprains etc.)

I instantly liked the video when I saw that the knife had actually been used. How refreshing to see someone talk about a knife he really used unlike so many others who got it for free, do a couple of feathersticks and than claim it to be the perfect knife. So bored of that shit. Subbed.

I'm with you on that, table tops have good info but opinions on like new knives miss stuff. I really thought i wouldn't like the esee 5 after a few min using it, it's bulky, heavy and so on. but i found out what it can do and that made me like it a lot :) the finish on the knife is actually impressively durable compared to other brand i've tried. It took a lot of use to remove some :)

You have the F!, but if you didn't the Esee 3 is a great little knife too. I use it the most actually, but if I need a larger knife I like the 6. I really like the sheath that comes with the Esee and the clip. I have some more expensive knives, but the Esee does everything I need at a good price and easy to sharpen.

I just purchased this knife. After a couple of hours in the woods I did 3 things that upgraded it massively. 1. I used 1000 grit sandpaper to smooth the coating (NOT to the steal, that will happen after awhile on the saber anyway) 2. I drilled the fire bow divot out to the tang (much easier to use, recommend on another channel) 3. I reground the edge to about 24/25 degree angle. This was mostly due to this informative video. Thanks. This knife is not perfect out of the box, but with this brick of steal you have the room to get damn close. More than most I think this is a knife that gets better with use, these three things speed that along.

Cool! So do you baton with the F1? Just curious. I'd be too afraid to baton any knife other than the esee 5 really... lol that's just me though. But I know that many manufacturers specifically prohibit battening in their warranties though. I think Fallkniven might Ben one of them as well.
@bluesGs
@bluesGs 6 жыл бұрын
Could totally be :) I batton my F1 no worries. The edge is more fragile than the esee for sure. but you can still use it on wood without any problems. Well i do it to get to the dry wood in a 2 ''- 2 1/2 '' log without hesitations :) If my knife breaks... that would be my fault, but really i'd be surprised. I've been using it for a good while now. (on anything else harder than wood though you'll probably damage the edge)

Great video of a great knife! One recommendation though. You may want to opt to wear a G-SHOCK when you’re batoning wood and bashing around with the knife! That’s a lot of force applied on the little gears and springs inside the mechanical movement of that nice watch you’re wearing!

That rooster's thinkin' "hmm, he's running out of stuff to test that knife out on, I better let him know I'm no friyin' hen". Great video Will Tayler, I was captured from the beginning because there was no kitchen table as a back drop!!!

Thanks ! i messed up a bunch of attempts before i could make one :) A few videos on youtube are very helpful. NW primate has the best channel for that imo if you want to check it out.

Very good review. Just a thought.....this is not a bush craft knife, it's a survival knife. It can do anything a bush craft knife can do and then some. It wasn't designed to do everything perfectly, but it was designed to do everything a bush craft knife can do including tough jobs that a lot of bush craft knives wouldn't hold up to and still keep running. Excellent knife!

+Terry Chorn thanks ! Exactly it'll do about everything you throw at it without being damaged. However for '' bushcraft '' I usually take my much much much lighter fallkniven F1 when I'm not in the need of such power/toughness. Have a nice day.

I like the edge you put on that blade. The only complaint I have with mine is not having palm swells in the scales. I realize you can buy them as an after market add-on, but there's another $50 I don't want to spend. BTW, thank you for the nice long demonstration on the ESEE-5's real world abilities. It really is a beautiful beast!

Thank you very much ! I agree a more ergonomic handle could be cool. It's not the best for that (or for everything) but it's good at everything :)

+Cam Fiote Salut, moi aussi j'ai eu le 5 d'occaz et j'ai galéré a refaire toute l'émouture avec la DC4 :D tu peux essayer avec des papiers de verres comme l'a fait Jesse des indomptables dauphinois, pour les pierres 800 je sais pas si ca suffit pour les gros travaux , je n'ai pas encore passé le pas, un jour peut être... pour l'instant c'est DC4 et huile de coude :)
