I know there have been a few pics and videos showing some torture testing of ESEE knives, but I'd really like to see a full WIP of a knife as long as it doesn't spoil any company secrets. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think ESEE has shown any work in progresses before. All my knives have almost perfect F/F, but it'd be awesome to see how it came to be.

Jeff, any chance of seeing some pics of the production process? I'm currently studying for my Operations Management exam tomorrow so it made me think of this haha. You hiring????? ;):D
 
The last time they were hiring, they needed test subjects. Off whom we never heard again.... :D
 
Shon is kind of quiet about the way the knives are made. I've met 3 of the elves before and the heat treating wizard but even they keep quiet about it.
 
Maybe jeff and I might get up there and take a few pictures for you guys but there will be a lot of blacked out eyes/faces and blurred out portions of processes and then we will have to get everyone who signs on to view the photos to sign a nondisclosure agreement and depending on how much you actually see we may have to borrow that neuralizer from MIB to erase your memory.
 
I had a feeling that that was the case that Shon/Rowen would be a bit tight-lipped about any processes or heat treat formula. Worth a try so thanks for the replies.

I think really what you guys are trying to hide is the magic pixie dust you sprinkle over the knives to make them so damn addicting. I'm on to you now!
 
noss i think thats how you spell his name on you tube put the esee 4 threw the badest test and its what sold me on buying mine! love it! wouldnt trade it for anything!
 
Shon does some pretty secretive work,. That shop doesn't only work for us ;)

Mike and I will try to get out there in the Spring and shoot some video for you guys. Of course it has to run through the censors. :)
 
Great question there Lazer. I however was thinking that this might be a thread for ESEE w.i.p. for customer mods. Anyway thanks for the idea for thread. :)
 
Here is the video of the entire process!
