ESEE-RB3-BO Knife Black Oxide

The Camp-Lore series was developed to answer the demand for traditional, basic, bushcraft knives. The designers of this knife series come from unique backgrounds and experiences, with each considered to be one of the best in their field. All of the Camp-Lore knives are simple, traditional, fixed blade designs that have been field-proven for years. ESEE builds the Camp-Lore in the USA with a black oxide 1095 carbon steel blade and removable Micarta handles which allows the user to apply a traditional patina to the blade without the need for removing a blade coating. Each Camp-Lore knife comes with a USA-made traditional pouch sheath using leather supplied by one of the oldest tanneries in North America. The RB3 model designed by Reuben Bolieu is the knife for you if you prefer a classic ESEE shape with a thicker, more comfortable handle. The 3.5" drop point blade is scandi ground to give you a very nice slicing blade for bushcraft. The ergonomic Micarta handle is thicker than a typical ESEE but contoured to be supremely comfortable. As with any bushcrafting design, there are no hot spots on the handle so you can use this knife for hours without fatigue. It's recommended you strop the knife with a leather strop and compound as often as possible (daily if you can) to prolong the edge of the knife. Includes a leather drop sheath.
