ESEE JG3

In this knife review, I take a closer look at the JG3 by ESEE Knives. This knife was designed by James Gibson and is part of ESEE’s Camplore series which represents some of their more camp and bushcraft focused knives.

As I always do during my review process, I put this knife to work in order to properly evaluate it. I didn’t, however, get the chance to do any field dressing with the knife, but due to the unique handle design and overall profile of the blade, I believe it would do quite well at this task (if you have used this knife for hunting and field dressing, please feel free to add a comment below). These same design features allowed it to do well with basic fire-side food prep, which I demonstrate in the video. The knife handled well with a wide variety of cutting tasks which I explored as I reviewed this knife, but I did have some personal concerns about the knife that I share in more detail in this video. As always, knives serve specific functions based on their design and the materials used, but there’s still room within all that for some personal preferences, and that’s always important to weigh in to which knives you carry.
