Just thought I'd check in. X posted that he had the knife 2 weeks ago.

Should be any day now............ :)

No doubt.

Sent xtestifyx a PM just to check on the status to maybe save TTD some leg work (and the rest of us some fingernail chewing :D).

He said as of today it is out the door (I assume to TTD) and that he won't be getting a review up. Just thought I'd pass it along.

Maybe TTD will have it in time to baton his turkey. You guys do baton your turkeys right?
 
any reason to him not doing a review ?
I can wait on him to do it ?
I am in no rush :D

Dude, you're killing us, really. Between that, the PSK contest and the AR lower contest, my heart can't take it alright!

Hey x-

Everybody was curious as to where the 5 was. Have you sent it on to TTD or did it go to mhill?

Later,

Adam



Yes Adam, as of today it's out the door!

Sorry for the delay, I cannot get a review up. I do think your review is fantastic. Good job!

Cheers, xtestifyx

only while it's still frozen.
after it's been properly smoked, it just falls apart...



(dang it - between that thought and your picture of a hassenfeffer mcgriddle, I'm hungry!)
 
Sorry Tony, I cannot find an appropriate place to use the RC5 to it's potential.


We have little need to chop down trees and split logs in Florida since it doesn't get cold enough to use a Fireplace. I did however bash on it a little bit doing garden work and it proved to be an excellent "Do it all" blade that can dig as well

I have put a Half Mirror polish on it, so the Tony and the winner and enjoy it. Cheers!
 
Sorry for the disappointment, I can only do an Urban living review and it'll be for pleasure.

The ESEE5 can really do all you want. It's a perfect Do-It-All that you would appreciate being at your side whether you're taking a cool break in the woods or working on your latest project of home improvement. The knife is really a knife on steroids.

Harvesting, chopping and skinning. I can imagine how a knife like this would excel in all the above tasks. It has a generous amount of Belly(curvature) that many people like for it's utilitarian capabilities.

Blade thickness. This subject has been covered and discussed. This is the knife if your life had to depend on it performing. The blade stock is .25", this will undoubtedly hinder performance in some tasks but redeems itself in tasks such as splitting wood.

Below are a few pictures I took earlier harvesting. We don't own a farm here so harvesting is limited to a certain known produce especially famous in this state.



This is one of my Orange trees. The day is bright and the Oranges are becoming ripe. What a perfect time for a Citrus fruit!

Penetrating capabilities retain even though the tip has suffered some extreme use! I congratulate those who has tested the knife with such dedication. I would not find myself doing that! :thumbup: Deer frequently appear on the other side of the pond, sometimes a family of 4 will appear. Turkeys are due right about now as well

20 Degrees per side, 40 Degrees inclusive. I'd advise those who will be doing chopping to remain in the 25-30 degrees a side limit so the edge retention is prolonged.

Cutting the Orange proved to be no stranger to the wood chipping ESEE-5. Wow this thing was sweet!(The knife!)

Nice pics x (albeit wrong thread :D) Haha.

Tony, looks like she’s inbound to the great state of TX.
 
I'll gather up the goodies to go with the ESEE 5 and get with the Mods and figure out who's review wins the ESEE 5 and the Old Style SERE Firekit & a few lanyards !
 
Cool, Tony. Thanks again to everyone involved with the pass around. Jeff, mods, and participants. Who knows, maybe we helped 'em sell a few dozen 5s.

I just scrolled through the review pics from the beginning. Man you guys are hard on a knife. :D
 
Incase you forgot ,Here is what I am adding to the 5 as a gift to the winner
a pair of New Lanyards and a New unused Original fire kit
