New ESEE 5 . . . Finally

Capt R · Jan 31, 2011

I finally pulled the trigger and ordered an ESEE 5. Ordered it Friday night and it came in today. What a knife. it definitely has that indestructible look. Can't wait to try it out.

I am pumped!

I was debating the 5 and 6 and went with the 5. I still think I want the 6 too.

Congrats, man! I really like the 5.

5 is my favorite of the "big knives." Izula-II gets the most work day to day for me though.

6 is good, but you probably made the right choice.

Pics are needed though.

Call me stupid, but I can't seem to figure out how to add pics. Is it my membership level?

1) Use a photobucket or picasa account or something.
2) When viewing the picture, right click and select "copy image URL"
3) In a post, click the Insert Image icon and paste the URL that you just copied.

AWW man.. i am so jealous.. have been wanting a 5 now for a while..just haven't had the opportunity to get one. will probably do so for my bday. but yeah show us some pics!

I will try to post a pic. Seems like I have not noticed the insert image botton or icon or whatever it is. I am usually not this dumb with computers. Maybe just forum stupid.

Enjoy the 5. A brilliant knife. Mine joins me every time I travel to Africa.

Yes, I'm happy for anyone who gets a 5, or any new ESEE for that matter. Personally, the 5 is the "everything" knife in their line, IMHO. I think it's the perfect size and thickness and is truly a solid beast of a knife. Great choice.

Cheers, enjoy!

Congrats on the new knife.
Pretty sure you have to be a paying member to post a picture.

the 5 is my EDC. a couple days ago, i switched it up and carried my Ontario SP42. the first thing i thought was "WOW, i never realized how heavy that 5 really was, this is much better" then, the very next day..... i put the 5 back on my belt. there's no replacing it, it's my EDC.

The 5 will be my next purchase. I love that thing.
