ESEE RB3 Bolieu Camp-Lore, Scandi Grind, Leather Sheath, Reuben Bolieu Design

The ESEE RB3 is a very nice bushcrafting knife from the Camp-Lore series, designed by Reuben Bolieu. This knife is ideal for lighter tasks and fine wood-cutting. The micarta handle lies great in your hand, even when you have larger hands. It offers plenty of grip and helps to use the razor-sharp blade with exceptional precision. This blade is full-tang (which means it runs through the whole handle) and is made of 1095 carbon steel. Unlike many other carbon steel ESEE knives, this does not have a coating but has a stonewashed finish. This gives the steel a cool look, but makes it more susceptible to rust. Drying it thoroughly after use and the occasional drop of oil will work miracles for this knife. ESEE decided not to coat the knife so to allow users to create their own patina on the blade
