At the core of this knife is a 3.88-inch drop point blade crafted from 1095 high carbon steel. Known for its outstanding toughness and edge retention, 1095 carbon steel has long been the choice of professionals who rely on their blades in extreme conditions.

The handle is built from 3D-machined G-10, one of the most durable handle materials in the knife industry. Its gray and black layered finish is both striking and functional, while the ergonomic contouring provides a comfortable, slip-resistant grip, even in wet or cold conditions. This thoughtful design reduces fatigue during extended use, ensuring that the knife feels secure and reliable in your hand during any task. With full tang construction and robust stainless steel hardware, the handle enhances both durability and balance, allowing you to wield the knife with precision and confidence.

Measuring 8.25 inches overall and weighing just 9.28 ounces, the ESEE 3 is compact enough to carry daily, yet strong enough to handle demanding outdoor and tactical tasks. Its balanced proportions make it easy to control, while its lightweight build ensures it won’t weigh you down during long treks or survival missions.

Whether you prefer horizontal or vertical carry, the sheath ensures the knife is secure, protected, and easily accessible. In addition to the sheath, each ESEE 3 also comes with bumper stickers and an ESEE/Randall’s Adventure and Training survival card, highlighting the brand’s roots in real-world survival training and field use.
