    I've been considering the ESEE 5 as an indestructible urban survival blade (already own some Izulas, Izula II, ESEE 3,4,6 and a Laserstrike) and after seeing that the only way to kill a 5 is hammering against a well drilling pipe until exhaustion, I think this blade should easily survive anything encountered during real world knife use.

I've seen the fakes, counterfeits, and knock-offs online and it's a minefield of junk knives with a few good deals in between. I have a knife shop about half an hour's drive from home and they have an online store. So if I know what I want, I just order it to be delivered. Saves on fuel etc even with the freight cost. I try not to go into the store because they have some one-off Benchmades in there that run around 1600 to 2000 dollars and I fear I may make a deal I can't afford just because they put a bright, shiny object in front of me LOLZ!

    I modified mine. Thinned out the grind and reduced the edge angle to make it close to a knife you can work with.
    The screws on the handle also loosen up with mine while batoning. Almost lost 1. I put loctite so that shouldn't happen again
    This knife is a prybar an as it comes i don't think it should break while batoning or prying....but the shock! Steel on steel...that can be a killer. TBH i did not see that coming. I know it is softer than others because it should take it...
    Did you go ahead with the warranty? ESEE shoud replace it!
    I hope you do and let us know how it works out!

    JOE, it seems to me that you gave ESEE 5 lighter treatment than others...no antlers, stone block, ski edges, and not so much jumping on it and trying to bent it as with others...Any chance you'd be a little biased towards it? :)
    I love your videos and they are so funny and useful and I think it would be a big upgrade if you followed more standardised procedures of the knives' torture so that they really get the same treatment and the results are more objective. Maybe the same number of hits on the same objects? After all you do pass judgement on their quality so I believe they would deserve it:)
    Of course, at the same time, it is your channel and your show so whatever makes you happy is fine :) By the way, I really hope and wish you stay safe and don't hurt yourself too much doing these absolutely most extreme knives tests! Thanks, stay healthy and enjoy ;)

    On knives they have ‘glass breakers’ on the back of the handles like the Esee 5 and Gerber Strong arm and Infantry 2, it would be interesting to see actually how easily they can break glass of a vehicle to make an emergency exit…of course you only have so many wrecked vehicles you can afford to break the glass on though so fair enough if you can’t 😆

    hi Joe , sur le miens j'ai convexifié le tranchant et poli l'émouture ce qui lui a apporté durabilité du tranchant , meilleur pénétration , ESEE 5 est le couteau que je choisirais s'il fallait n'en choisir qu'un seul , il n'est pas parfait mais je pense que c'est le couteau le plus résilient que je connaisse et en qui j'ai confiance... esee5 THE Legend !

      Yeah, the claim is, no matter what you do to it, we will replace it.
      But they are not happy when people start throwing them.
      They will break also when doing that.
      The heat treat of the steel is not suited to that.
      A BK2 also broke due to throwing..
      And from what I read, the handle on ESEE is not under the warranty.
