Handle/blade: micarta/1095 carbon steel 
Blade length: 8.8 cm 
Weight: 145 grams

The **ESEE Model 3** is a solid survival knife with a blade of 1095 carbon steel. The extremely durable powder coating on the blade helps protect against the larger rust susceptibility known to carbon steel. The great performance of the steel guarantee a life long pleasure. The full tang blade features a micarta handle. This handgrip feels somewhat rough, which is good for grip and comfort. The ESEE 3 has a fairly modest size and will therefore not easily appear 'threatening'. These dimensions allow you to use it as an EDC-knife.  
  


The handle is equipped with an elevation for your index finger. This knife has such a fantastic grip, that you don't understand why other knives need a full row of curves in the handle to feel that comfortable. Also the heel of the blade features such a curve. This curve serves as a resting place for your thumb, to give a solid grip. The ridges on the top are exactly at the right place for your thumb. This way the knife is very good to steer and can be used for, for example, food preparation.  
  


The MIL, like the other Model 3 versions, features a point at the back of the handle. Only in this implementation the point is made sharper, to make it work better as a glass breaker.  
   


The knife comes with a well designed, flexible sheath. The knife fits perfectly in the zytel holder, which in turn can be mounted however you like, on the included MOLLE-compatible mounting system or the plate with steel belt clip. Mounting can be done on both sides, so the whole is completely customizable.

Nice little knife robust enough for abuse should it occur. If you've  got large hands, I'm  borderline, it may be wise to go up in the esse range, maybe a 4 . I've got an esse 5 from Knives and tools and very pleased with it's tank like construction and thinking about an esse 6.

couteau de superbe qualité ! attention toutefois c'est un acier au carbone qui et très résistant et qui s’affûte bien mais qui n'aime pas l'eau donc attention a bien l'essuyer et graisser pour éviter la corrosion !

Na veel vergelijkingen gedaan te hebben toch bij Esee Model 3 uitgekomen. Wat me vooral aanspreekt is de kwaliteit van hun messen. Een fijn gecoat blad om roest tegen te gaan. De handvaten hebben door de textuur goede grip, ook bij vochtige omstandigheden. Zit standaard in mijn rugzak als ik erop uit ga.

In combinatie met de Tek Lok is dit een zeer goede set. Zo kun je het mes verticaal of horizontaal aan je riem of rugzak bevestigen.

Aangezien ik dit mes pas 4 weken in mijn bezit heb, heb ik het nog niet uitvoerig kunnen testen, maar de eerste indruk is super. Aan te raden!

Great all round bushcraft knife.
Strong, small enough and robust and a good blade edge.
I want another one !

General information

We always measure the blade height at the highest part of the blade.

Blade height

We always measure the blade length ourselves. This is the length of the blade from the tip to the front of the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade length

We always measure the blade thickness at the thickest part of the blade. Often just before the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade thickness

value_handle_length

We always weigh a product as bare as possible. Knives and axes always without their sheath, lights (if possible) without their battery. For knife sets we measure the entire weight. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specifications.

Weight

Dimensions & weight

value_steel_hardness

The hardness in Rockwell C for a knife is always according to the manufacturer's specifications. When a manufacturer specifies a value of 56-58HRC, for instance, we always note the highest value, i.e. 58HRC.
