I've got both Esee 6 and Tops BOB. Both are tough, but for bushcraft I would chose the BOB. You may also like the TOPS Brakimo....great knife with a similar, but larger blade than the BOB.

LOL....just saw where this tread is four years old....oops.

The ESEE-6 is big... MUCH bigger than the BOB. Here is a pick of the ESEE-6 next to some other knives, the BOB would fit between the two on the far right, ESEE-6 is on the left:

Both are 1095 steel, I'm not sure if Rowen makes the BOB, they might... But the ESEE-6 is big and comes with a very thick edge, it needs some edge-modification to make it a decent carver. I've read good things about the BOB but don't own one as I have too many knives in that size already ;) One more thing - I personally find the ESEE-6 handle very uncomfortable.
What is the knife second from the left?
