The ESEE Pacaya is a compact utility fixed blade that draws on three ESEE designs: the ESEE-3, the Izula, and the Sencillo. This version pairs a 3.0″ full-tang CPM 3V blade in an OD Green coating with an OD Green canvas Micarta handle and a black Kydex sheath.
CPM 3V is a powder-metallurgy tool steel known for very high toughness, making it a strong choice for a hard-working utility knife. ESEE runs it at 58-60 HRC. That means a 1/8″ thick blade that resists chipping and holds a working edge through camp chores and hunting tasks. The wide drop-point blade blends straight into the handle, putting your fingers close to the edge for precise, controlled cuts, and the rounded handle is shaped to stay comfortable through long tasks.
- Blade: 3.0″ CPM 3V drop point, OD Green corrosion-resistant coating, 1/8″ thick, full tang, plain edge, 58-60 HRC. 7.12″ overall.
- Handle: Rounded OD Green canvas Micarta, shaped to avoid hot spots during extended use. 4.12″ handle length.
- Sheath: Black Kydex sheath included.
- Carry: 3.32 oz. Add straps (sold separately) for scout carry, or a metal clip (sold separately) for pocket carry.
Ideal for: campers who want a compact, tough knife for daily camp chores; hunters who need a small, controllable blade for field tasks; and everyday carriers who want a full-tang fixed blade that carries easily.
Care: CPM 3V is a tool steel, not stainless. The coating protects the blade faces, but the edge is bare steel and can rust if left wet. Clean and dry the blade after use and keep the edge lightly oiled.
