The Knaf I took to Survival School (ESEE 4 S35VN at Randall's Adventure & Training Field Survival)

Ойын-сауық

Everyone seems to enjoy spending part of their time indoors talking about the equipment they can't wait to use when the time to step outside comes. I'm certainly no different, be it paintball markers or wilderness tools, for this equipment I'm a total fool! lol, I could also be a poet. Enjoy this video on the S35VN ESEE 4, the knaf I carried with me, used, and abused at the Randall's Adventure and Training Field Survival course, a fun 3-day adventure in which I almost froze to la muerte (but don't talk about in this video) and got to hang out (and suffer) with like-minded people for the first time in my life. Sometimes I look back and think that field survival was better than everyday life itself.

    Miguel, I just discovered your channel with this video. I'm VERY impressed with the content and your humor. The fact you watch Flannel Daddy gives you instant cred too! Anyway, I'm a new subscriber, and think your channel deserves fame..............unless your other vids suck, which I seriouslyl doubt based on this one. Someday when you have a million subscribers, I'll be proud to have found your channel when you had 8.6K. Keep up the great work man!

    I personally like the S35VN ESEE 3 better because of its thinner blade stock..I feel it works better for 90% of the tasks you need a knife for..honestly,I would love for ESEE to make a ESEE 3.5,a knife with the length of a ESEE 4 but the thinner blade stock of the ESEE 3..I would also love for it to be a Scandi grind..for an all out survival knife,I think the ESEE 6 is the best knife ESEE makes.its good and thick like the ESEE 4 is but it’s 2” long making it more efficient to chop with and the blade is wider so it’s not as thick behind the edge..I would like to see the ESEE 6 in 3V or Cruwear,they are both carbon steel yet much more resistant to rust than 1095.3V with a cryogenic heat treatment is damn near stainless

    Weird, but entertaining and informative review. I've been an ESEE fan for quite a few years and they've been my go to, especially the ESEE 3 and ESEE 6. That ESEE 4 s35vn looks really nice but I baton and with them breaking the their s35vn 3, it makes me kind of second guessing getting the 4. I know they have the bulletproof warranty but I'm not that person to abuse it either. In fact I'd probably never use it.

    Good review I agree with most but like the DBK review and others peoples comment like myself we try to pigeon hole these as bush craft knives not survival knives made to get you through a survival situation which is different. It's a great knife for getting out of say a downed aircraft or car and surviving till you get help its survival with brute force while Bush craft its the survival with artistic and craftsman like detail

    Jimping is always useless (just a gimmick) and a finger choil on a small fixed blade camp knife has no use also. I'm not saying it's a bad knife but with the change of handles I'm just curious about the total cost of the package? You mention it was very cold in your text (not in the video) so having an exposed full tang is probably not a good idea. But the same goes when it's very hot. If you have skills any knife works but if you ask me what is the best small fixed blade camp knife that can be used globally in every environment, every season, every condition I would suggest a Fallkniven F1 with zytel sheath. That knife already has a convex but I agree with putting a secondary convex on all your knives.

    I prematurely got the 440C esee4 and simultaneously also got the s35vn esee3 when it first came out. I can’t justify having 3 of these esee4 knives, cuz I have a 1095 esee4 as well lol In fact the only one I don’t have is the esee6 however I do have two RAT7 so I don’t need one. But I want one

    @@jontom5322 I kinda feel like the 440c can withstand hard use much better. And being that it’s a larger knife that would encourage someone to give it some hard use, I feel like the 1095 and 440 make sense. Remember, Randal did address the fact that S35vn was heavily requested by customers. It wasn’t what they wanted to build for everyone. I bought the S35vn #3 because I support the company, not cuz I think it’s gonna be the best blade they got. And that particular blade has been designated as a EDC and something I cut miles of tape with at work. If I was going somewhere away from home, I’d be leaving it behind. My suggestion is, don’t get the S35vn if it’s gonna be the only one you have.

    I love your comment. Yes to everything, lol. Well, actually, perhaps not. I'm equally confused as you as to what a Knaf is I'm only calling this thing what the Esee folks were calling it when I was down (up for me, actually) in Alabama with them. As far as the accent goes, I'm what you call a box of chocolates when it comes to what accent I'll use next... you really never know what you're gonna get. Finally, I may indeed be from another country... but that is entirely dependent on what country you're from since the answer to the question is relative to the person asking it. What is certain is that I am unquestionably a ball of goof who is grateful for your viewership. *exeunt*
