Tips on using the 6 for woodwork/bushcraft

[nc527]

I just received my esee-6, and was looking for tips on using it for bushcrafting. I am used to using a koster bushcrafter, and moras, so this is a big switch. It seems I have to have the knife at a much higher angle to cut then my scandis.

If anyone has pics or tips on using the 6, please post them.

I put the sharp side against what I wanna cut, then apply pressure.

Prob the best thing to do is take it out with you sometime and use it...

As with all large bushcraft knives knowing how to throw it is key.
Be it: hunting/fishing, starting a fire, building a shelter, or getting out a splinter there are few tasks a well aimed esee-6 cant handle.

and remember, if it moves...baton it.

Bonus survival points if it bounces against whatever you're aiming at sideways, right?
