I'd like to hear more about your experience with ESEE. A new thread would probably be more appropriate. Sorry, not trying to derail the OP, just browsing the new threads and this caught my eye.

Same here. I always thought ESSE was a company who stood up to their products!

To answer your questions and not to derail this conversation. The issues I had with the ESEE Izula II are explained in this GB&U post here.

Where does it say they will move manufacturing out of China? USA made schrade take 2 would make me smile. For the record, I'm glad the schrade name and patterns didn't die when the company did.

I hope this will not have an effect on the wonderfully low prices of S&W and Schrade knives that we have been enjoying for many years now.

If S&W is going to shift all manufacturing out of China and Taiwan, replace the 7cr17 and 8cr13mov steels with underwhelming 420hc and then raise prices because of increased labor and materials cost, i'm bailing out and staying with SanRenMu and Enlan exclusively.

That, or jump ship to Kershaw.
