Esee Knives

So early this week I won a contest through twitter for an Esee Candiru knife, and today I just received it in the mail which made me pretty happy. Esee knives are very professional and I will definitely be purchasing some cutlery from them in the near future. They also have a training school so definitely check out their website.To tell you a little about the knife it is small with a full length of 5.14" and a blade edge at 2". It seems very durable and to be a well crafted knife using high carbon 1095 steel, one if the best for cutlery. My knife is desert tan and it came with a cordura sheath. The name Candiru is after a fish native to the Amazon River, also known as the vampire fish. It is a kind of tiny catfish known for an alleged tendency to invade the human urethra (wikipeia). A picture of the fish is actually engraved in the knife as you can see below. All in all it is a great knife and I can't wait to take it camping this weekend!
