    Hey y’all. I’m John. I guess my Esee journey began leading up to Father’s Day. I was looking gift ideas for myself and I was looking at the Mora Eldris. But looking around I saw the Izula. Started looking at Esee knives and decided I’d give the Izula 2 a try. My first impressions were stunning. This little knife is a true bullet ant! I’m impressed by the size of the knife yet the thickness of the blade. It can get sharp enough to shave with. And canvas micarta is actually a comfortable grip. I splurged and got an Esee 3 which again, I’m impressed and I’m hooked.

    Anyway, I’m hoping the schedule for the Advanced Bushcraft class comes available soon. I’d like to put these knives to work.

    Welcome !

    I much prefer the Izula II to the original for almost all tasks !! The 3 is just a brilliant all-round blade !

    I’m contemplating my next Esee… either the 5 or the 6.

    I can agree… now, should I go with the regular 6 or 6HM? So many options lol.

    I prefer the HM but it a very personal choice. You should try and handle both.

    Man that's tough, I've got both. If you're looking for more utilitarian I'd say the regular with 3D handle scales. If you're looking for more wood/bushcraft trade knife use then I'd say the 6HM.

    Hey, everyone! I was on here previously as BobbyRatTail. I came back under my real name Justin Bohnett, but I lost access to that account as I changed employers, so I'm here to round out this trilogy as RatTailsRevenge. I saw snippets of the Sencillo on Instagram and had to get back on the forums. I've never used A2 blade steel before, so I'm pumped to give this one a try.

    Hi, how y’all doing? This is my first stab at a forum. I’m a big Esee fan. I’m up to about 20 of them with no sign of slowing down. I got some thoughts and ideas I’d like to share with the group. How do I put pictures on here?

    @Lefty Red Welcome to the forum. 20 is quite the number to be be welcomed with. Easiest way is to use imgur if you have already or are willing to set it up. You can post directly to the forum by creating a shared folder on your own account . Just make sure it’s set to shared. Alternatively, you can use the one I have set up for open use, but they won’t be safe from deletion there I think since it’s open.
    Maybe this will take you there. http://eseeknives.com/forums/index.php?media/albums/_random-stuff.56/
