The ESEE Model 4 is the "big brother" of the iconic Model 3, with which the history of the American brand began. The design was slightly (approx. 2 cm) lengthened, while maintaining a similar profile of the blade or the shape of the handle. Thanks to this, the tool is perfect for heavier field work, while maintaining high comfort of wearing on a belt or with gear.
The knife blade is made of 1095 carbon steel resistant to chipping and cracking. Due to the high carbon content, this material is susceptible to corrosion, and therefore the ESEE Model 4 blade is covered with a Foliage Green powder coating. The knife handle is made of Micarta resin laminate. Its durability in extreme conditions and great grip, which it guarantees, is appreciated by people who use the product for the toughest tasks.
The shape of the tool is basically an enlarged Model 3. Also in this ESEE knife, the classic drop-point type was used, equipped with an undercut under the finger and notches on the back, allowing for more precise work. The large handle is straight profiled for a better grip, it also has a pseudo-yoke that gives a firm support to the hand and a hole for a safety rope. The full-tang construction ensures a very high strength of the product, and the cladding fixed with screws can be easily replaced if damaged, even in the field.
ESEE Model 4 is equipped with a durable hard polymer sheath. It not only protects the blade, but also has two types of mounting. The first is the standard clip for carrying the knife on the belt. The second is a nylon platform that allows you to attach it to equipment with MOLLE. Both mounts are attached with screws, so you can easily adapt the way of carrying the knife to your own needs.
ESEE Model 4 knife is as practical as its smaller counterpart. This is an excellent proposition for all those who need a bit more "power reserve", and do not want a too large tool that will disturb them during off-road activities. It can be said that the ESEE Model 4 is the perfect compromise between dimensions and capabilities and an excellent proposition in the category of a larger field knife. So if you are looking for the right model for activities such as bushcraft or survival, be sure to check out this product from the American brand ESEE.
