Reviews for ESEE RB3 Bolieu Camp-Lore, scandi grind, leather sheath, Reuben Bolieu design

Monday 3 March 2025

The ESEE RB3 Bolieu Camp-Lore is an outstanding little bushcraft knife that has quickly become one of my favorites. Designed by Reuben Bolieu, this knife is a perfect blend of simplicity, functionality, and ruggedness. The 1095 steel blade with its scandi grind is incredibly sharp and makes woodworking tasks a breeze. The scandi grind is ideal for carving and other bushcraft activities, and the knife holds its edge remarkably well. The micarta handle provides a secure and comfortable grip, even in wet conditions, and the ergonomics are spot-on. The genuine leather sheath is simple yet well-made, providing excellent retention and easy access to the knife. Overall, the ESEE RB3 Bolieu Camp-Lore is a fantastic knife for anyone who enjoys spending time in the outdoors. Its compact size makes it easy to carry, and its robust construction ensures that it can handle just about anything you throw at it. If you're looking for a high-quality, made-in-the-USA bushcraft knife, the RB3 is an excellent choice.

The knife feels amazing and very robust. I use olive oil to prevent rust and so far it has no rust at all. I use the knife for bushcraft and camping and i own it for 2 years. The only problem i had is that the first time i used it to craft tent pegs the blade chiped, but you can fix that with some sharpening.

Can’t say a great deal about the knife as I haven’t got to use it as much as I’d like due to Covid. However what little I have done with it has impressed me. The package was dispatched and delivered quickly and was very well packed. I have used this website a few times now and it is the only place I look online for my purchases. Highly recommended.
