Thank you! After processing the image I realized that I made a mistake... ...I haven't bought a Junglas yet.
Thank you! I had a Bk2 as my bushcraft knife. I bought the 6 on sale. I like it so much I took a deep dive from there
After moving to Montana, I’m feeling a strong need to add an ESEE-5 to my vehicle. just as insurance.
I live in NW Wyoming. My Bk22 has been part of my truck "survival" kit for a few years. I'm thinking of swapping it out for the Esee 5.
The BK-2 is an awesome blade in its own respect. But I feel the 5 takes it a step further. Sort of like a steel woobie. I’m not uninitiated to harsh weather, but out here for some reason it seems very different. Perhaps it is because I have no back up person any longer. I’m not really sure. The distances between rescue and the alternative definitely have my attention. I do not wish to be the guy from out of state they find frozen to death 50 yards from his truck.
I live in South Dakota and winters can be harsh. I carry the 5 in my work truck every day and have to swap it to the car I’m in on the weekend. I have the esee pouch on the front of sheath with some fire starting supplies and the esee fire steel. The glass breaker pommel is a great feature combined with the weight of the knife. I need to get a second one for my wife’s car so I don’t have to keep swapping it between vehicles.
