4P Survival Knife - Field Tested Fixed Blade Knife with Molded Polymer Sheath & Clip Plate, Full Tang, Plain Edge - Durable Outdoor Camping Blade with Sheath for Survival

My work knife. I carry this 5 days a week as a landscape/maintenance tech. Very durable, holds an edge for a descent amount of time. Just about a perfect fit for my hands (sz large gloves). I have multiple Esee knives and they are all top notch as far as quality and durability go. It’s easy to use and edc if wanted. I purchased a taco style sheath for scout/horizontal carry and I don’t notice it’s there. Very concealable, carries comfortably, fit, finish and weight all coincide nicely with the Esee 4. I actually have this one and the double edge version (perfect self defense knife). Can’t go wrong with the no questions asked fix/replacement warranty to top it all off! Get yourself some, dependability and durability with a Esee knife!

I’ve been putting the ESEE 4P Survival Knife through its paces for several months now, and it has quickly become one of my favorite tools. This knife is built like a tank — the full-tang construction and thick blade make it incredibly durable. I’ve used it for batoning firewood, cutting through heavy brush, carving, and even some light prying tasks, and it shows almost zero wear. No chips, no bending, no loose handle. It feels like it will last a lifetime. What impresses me most is how well it stays sharp. Even after heavy use on tough materials, it still slices through paper and rope with ease. A quick touch-up on a stone brings it right back to hair-shaving sharp. The blade geometry is excellent and holds an edge far better than many other knives I’ve owned in this category. It’s also very easy and comfortable to use. The micarta handles provide a secure, non-slip grip even when wet or dirty, and the balance is spot-on for both fine work and heavier chopping tasks. The sheath is well-made too, with solid retention and multiple carry options. If you’re looking for a no-nonsense, hard-use survival knife that you can truly depend on in the field, the ESEE 4P delivers. It’s rugged, stays sharp longer than expected, and feels great in the hand. Excellent quality all around. Highly recommended — this knife is worth every penny and then some.

Great knife. Very sharp out the box. Built to last.

I have 4 Esee Knives and I wanted see how the Esee4 would work for me...well its a perfect size to carry around for self protection ...and to cut package and rope and i been using it to cut my food from time to time..its just a Great Knife for what you use it for it just gets the Job done

TL;DR Overall, I would recommend this knife to my bestest friend. Not the most ergonomic knife, not cheap, but great quality steel that you will not be able to break/chip even if you try. After 4 months of heavy use in poor conditions I would say this knife was pretty good. I’m honestly impressed with how well the metal blade holds up. Sometimes you get bored and throw it at rocks- er, cut…stuff. Even after all of that I have never chipped the blade, but I have sharpened it a lot to maintain the edge. From when it was new, the blade has lost 1/8 inch in length and width due to it being sharpened so much. The first picture is, believe it or not, two identical knives. One is brand new and the other is…slightly used. I’ll let you pick which is which. But anyway I liked it so much I bought another one if that says anything. The only gripe I have with this knife is the handle. Good lord the handle….feels like I’m holding a Minecraft block. If you buy this knife, which I highly recommend, buy the version with a rounded handle. Your wallet with not be happy but your hand will thank you. Also, while the black coating won’t come off for anyone, any exposed steel will rust very easily as does high carbon steel. Just be prepared to service it often. The rust on it in the picture is from sitting in my dry backpack for a month. It’s just surface rust though. The sheath does have a drain hole at the bottom so water won’t pool on the blade while you’re wearing it on your belt.

Great knife, beefy and ready to take a beating. Feels great in the hand and comfortable to use. Came relatively sharp but it’s mild steel so easy to hone to a perfect edge. Overall I do recommend if you know what you are getting. It’s a good survival knife but it serves a specific purpose. There are better knives if you are going for a bushcraft knife. There are better knives if you are going for a hunting knife. But it’s a good one and quality is there. Warranty is great as well.

Good sturdy blade purchased as a gift to a firefighter/paramedic. Might be overkill for his kit, but he was delighted to receive it. Should be able to take use and abuse and still be serviceable.

Product is high quality and is packaged well, the product information is detailed and warranty is very clearly. I would by again with no questions

Me encanta su tamaño y diseño discreto la funda queda muy bien con el clip. Tiene un muy buen filo Lo recomiendo como cuchillo de campamento

Excellent knife

Solides, handliches messer. Ideal für eine kleine Tour in den Wald, ob man damit etwas schnitzen möchte, kleine Hölzer spalten will zum Feuer anmachen oder auch einfach nur ein Stück harte Stangen Salami schneidet, mit diesem Messer absolut kein Thema. Es kommt sehr scharf geschliffen (man kann sich damit rasieren) an und ist auch nach längerem rauen Gebrauch sehr schnitthaltig. Auch die Hülle/Scheide mach einen sehr guten Eindruck der Gürtelclip hat eine gute Festigkeit. Alles in allem ein absolut taugliches Messer 👍

Absolutely love this blade. Has become my EDC. Only gripe is that it won't strike a Ferro rod with the coating. A few seconds on a grinder fixed that for me. Probably my favorite fixed blade.

Ich habe das Messer nun für mehrere Outdoor-Touren verwendet, und ich muss sagen, dass es mich restlos überzeugt hat. Es ist ein absolut zuverlässiger Begleiter, der auch unter anspruchsvollen Bedingungen seine Leistungsfähigkeit beweist. Die Klinge ist unglaublich robust und widersteht mühelos Batoning von größeren Holzstücken. Ich war angenehm überrascht, dass sie keinerlei Macken oder Krümmungen aufweist, selbst nach intensivem Gebrauch. Die Griffigkeit ist ebenfalls hervorragend. Das Messer liegt fest und sicher in der Hand, auch wenn sie nass oder verschwitzt ist. Das ist besonders wichtig, wenn man in der Wildnis unterwegs ist und auf seine Werkzeuge angewiesen ist. Ich hatte zu keiner Zeit das Gefühl, die Kontrolle über das Messer zu verlieren. Der einzige mögliche Kritikpunkt ist der anfängliche Geruch. Es riecht nach erhalt sehr chemisch und es dauert auch seine Zeit bis dieser Geruch vollkommen verflogen ist. Zusammenfassend kann ich das Esee 4 uneingeschränkt empfehlen. Es ist ein verlässlicher Begleiter für Outdoor-Abenteuer, der sowohl in Sachen Leistung als auch Qualität herausragt.
