TEOTWAWKI Blade Entry #18


From K.C.:
Please accept my submission for the best teotwawki knife, my Esee-6. I travel often by car in the northeast and I am very wary of being : stuck in a snowstorm,  breaking down etc.  My Esee 6 is always in the car with me or in my overnight bag when I am in a hotel.  I EDC in the small of my back a orange handled Esse-3 but if concealment was not of importance this knife would be attached to my person at all times. Attached to the sheath are items that will help me make it home if I should ever break down or need to run for it (i.e. zombies): on the outside: paracord, firestarter, surefire executive elite E2e,. In the tin: water tablets, 1 datrex bar (200 cal), fishing line, hooks, 3 small flies. Windproof matches, a swiss army credit card knife (tweezers , file, toothpick, pen, mini knife) baby pins, button compass).   It came with molle attachments but I keep the belt hook on it  so that I can quickly grab and attach it to me .  I think if Rambo was trying to break out of the jail again to escape into the woods and he saw his knife and this knife he would even have to think about which one to grab.  I am confident that it would literally save my life if a desperate scenario occurred.
