ESEE-4 3D Handle – 4.50″ CPM-S35VN Stonewash Plain Edge Drop Point Blade, Gray and Black 3D G-10 Handle – ESEE-4P35V-002

The ESEE-4 3D Handle sets ESEE’s 4.5″ CPM S35VN stainless drop point in a 3D-contoured gray and black G-10 handle, giving the proven ESEE-4 survival design a textured, modern grip and a lower-maintenance blade.

Designed by Jeff Randall and Mike Perrin as an all-around survival and bushcraft knife, the ESEE-4 pairs 0.188″ stock that handles batoning with a tall flat grind that still slices cleanly for food prep and carving. This version uses CPM S35VN at 59-60 HRC, a powder-metallurgy stainless steel that holds an edge longer than ESEE’s standard 1095 and resists rust far better, so it asks for less upkeep in wet or humid conditions. The stonewash finish hides wear, and the 3D-contoured G-10 scales add grip texture and a two-tone gray and black look that sets this version apart from the rest of the ESEE-4 line.

• Blade: 4.50″ CPM S35VN stainless steel drop point, tall flat grind, plain edge, stonewash finish, 0.188″ thick, 59-60 HRC. 9.0″ overall.
• Handle: 3D-contoured gray and black G-10, 4.50″ long.
• Construction: Fixed blade, with no folding or locking mechanism.

Ideal for: ESEE-4 owners who want a textured G-10 grip with a stainless blade; campers and hunters in wet climates who want a low-maintenance survival knife; and collectors looking for a distinctive two-tone ESEE-4.
