[QUOTE="ez bake, post: 1385643, member: 229"] I can't say yet, I've only used it on a few minor things since I just got it yesterday. I know most of their knives are just 1095 steel, and I'm not sure as to what their tempering or heat-treating processes are, but ESEE's 1095 knives are pretty damn hard and they hold an edge very well. I'll find out this next week as I get a chance to use it, but its friggin perfect size for EDC - it carries better than any of my other fixed-blades (It's also much smaller, and there's less protection from your hand slipping off of the handle/scales onto the blade, but it grips well enough and has thick enough scales, that it's not a huge issue). I will say that I've found something else that I dislike about the sheath - the clip that comes with it has the swivel clip that's screwed onto the back of the sheath with a rubber washer - which is awesome in every way except for the fact that the clip has an opening that is like 2 1/8" - I'm wearing a 5.11 instructor belt that's 1 3/4" and this thing is loose on my belt. The clip looks to be removable, but it doesn't look easily modified to shorten in any way. I'll see what I can do with it though. [/QUOTE]
