Esee 6 - Your father's, brother's, nephew's, cousin's, former roommate of Survival Knives!!

Esee 6 - Are you minimalist? Do you believe that you only need one knife and anything else is just for showing off? Well then obviously this channel isn’t for you! But if you’re still reading this then check out the vid and maybe find out if the Esee 6 is right for you…or not…I mean I’m not your dad…I can’t force you or anything…

The Six is one of my favourites, good review mate 👍🏻

[@ernest9606]

It's one bad ass knife. 👍

[@drouleau]

I've said this for awhile - this knife in 3V with a sharpened spine would be one of the best 6" knives on the market

[@PubliusRutiliusLupus]

Architect AK 6.5 is very similar to this but with a little different blade geometry. They offer it in 3V.

[@Skyfall-sv8df]

Both knives look unused.

[@pole_barn_builder]

I was about to say the same thing. Neither of those knives have cut anything but paper

[@andreaburroni2213]

that's why they will go to brothers, fathers, grandfathers, cousins, daughters, moms, mom's cousins...

[@Skyfall-sv8df]

​@@andreaburroni2213Im just glad you "review" knives you dont use. I find that very "useful".

[@andreaburroni2213]

@@Skyfall-sv8df sorry but i used all my knives. that includes Esee, Busse, various custom, Lionsteel, Boker, protech, microtech...all are used. I was notice yours are not

​@andreaburroni2213 I only own butter knives, but they are well used.

The title roped me in. Stayed for the blade. Awesome work man.

Great all rounder, and attractive proportions too 😀👍

[@jamesmcgee2447]

Need info on where to get that pouch for the sheath. 👍🏻👍🏻

[@mikeboyce21]

Freak people out with an esee 6? Lol. I edc a busse team gemini light brigade. And ive never had anyone even bat an eye. However i was once edcing a ontario marine raider bowie. And had a lady tell me that it was illegal to carry it. And said she was going to call the cops on me. To which i showed her canadas knife laws on my phone and told her she could call the cops and id stay to talk to them and she declined my offer lol.

[@JohnLocke1776]

Nice. Hopefully you're one of the true Canadians that held your own and didn't cave to COVID mandates

[@mikeboyce21]

@JohnLocke1776 no sir and still haven't got a jab. I'm honestly embarrassed to admit I'm canadian now. It's unfortunate.

[@Shultzchet]

I have the izula currently and I had the short kabar, but I was looking to upgrade from the kabar and I went with the 6. But I will still have the izula on my vest as like a last resort easy grab fight knife, and for smaller tasks.

[@Chrisdolin]

New sub here.. just came across you… I hung out in Cali for 30yrs.. I’m back in Upstate NY.. curious where you’re from…? My longest spot was Redding for 18.. I like your stuff I think… I’m a big Esse fan boy as I have a couple sixes.. Junglas II on the way..! It’s gonna be a 3knife package.. all 3 in the Winter Forest. The 3rd being the Izula II. Anyway nice to meet ya..!👊

[@survivalofthefittest409]

"A big knife can do what a small knife can. A small knife can't do what a big knife can." It goes something like that (of course with some exceptions). Point being, if im only picking 1 of those 2 knives, forever, im definitely with the E6 over E4, easily.

[@JtotheRizzo]

I have a Mora Bushcraft Carbon Steel and love it. I'm looking for a bigger blade to process larger pieces of wood. I came across the Eese 6 and found 2 things that need improvement on the Eese 6 as a Bushcraft. 1. It needs a 90degree spine out the box. 2. It needs to have a rust inhibitor or make a stainless steel version. Stripping the powder coat paint is an options but having a smoother blade helps with processing wood.

[@JoannaJedrzejczyksForehead]

The knife connection makes what is in essence, a 3V ESEE 6. They call it the Architect 6.5

[@thomassullivan6016]

Keep mineral oil on it and call it a day

[@thomassullivan6016]

Keep mineral oil on it and call it a day

[@JohnLocke1776]

Strip the coating, put a good patina on it or polish the blade. Problem solved

[@Dozer272]

Have you checked out the esse laser strike

[@xforce708]

Aarrgghhhh. I wanted to see in the green pouch. Would’ve liked a link to the pouch and leather attachments.

[@Eskimo8888]

L.T. Wright Sheath and leather attached

[@lperson8970]

LOVE the scales. Where did you get them?

[@QuantumPyrite_88.9]

I hope you have actually used your Esse knives by now .

[@ZzelguszZ]

Where can I find that pouch without the kydex?

[@JohnLocke1776]

Good question. In case you can't find It by itself, most army surplus stores carry shoulder straps that look similar for a few dollars

[@andreaburroni2213]

important fact is not to be used.

[@shamitoson]

Wouldn’t pick the esee 4 if I could only have 50 knives. Blocky uncomfortable scales, horrible waste of blade choil, way over priced for 1095. Nice sheath though. I have one and hate it. The 6 looks much better imo

[@survivalofthefittest409]

If you don't like the 4, for those reasons...it doesn't sound like you'll like the 6 either. I love my 6, but the 6 is just a longer 4, with more handle, soo...🤷🏼‍♂️

[@Sleep_SDE1979]

I chose the 6 over the 4 (before they offered 3D contoured scales or the choil-less "HM" models). I think the 6 is actually slightly thinner stock than the 4 but either way, with the longer taper and the wider blade, it seems to come down to a thinner edge. I do like the way the 4HM looks but still has the problem of the excessively thick stock for such a short blade. The 6 is a great knife to take into the woods and can handle light chopping and abuse if needed.
