The ESEE-5P-E is the heaviest-built knife in the ESEE lineup, originally designed as a downed-pilot survival tool. A quarter-inch thick 1095 high-carbon steel blade and saber grind give it the mass to take abuse that would ruin a lighter knife.
Its robust construction supports prying, batoning, and general survival tasks in austere conditions, making it a dependable tool for demanding environments.
Carbon steel blades should be cleaned, dried, and lightly oiled after use to maintain performance and prevent corrosion.
