The ESEE Camp Lore CR2.5 Fixed Blade Knife is a compact field companion built for hunters, campers, and bushcrafters who rely on tough, straightforward tools. Designed as part of ESEE’s Camp Lore series and influenced by veteran knife designer Cody Rowen, this knife focuses on practical performance for real outdoor work.
The CR2.5 features a 2.5-inch drop point blade crafted from rugged 1095 carbon steel. Known for its toughness and dependable edge retention, this steel performs exceptionally well in demanding environments and sharpens easily in the field. The drop point profile provides excellent control for precision tasks like carving, skinning game, and preparing camp meals. Its compact blade length allows for detailed work while still offering the durability needed for everyday camp chores.
A bright orange G-10 handle provides strength, comfort, and outstanding grip in nearly any condition. The textured surface stays secure in the hand even when wet, while the high-visibility color makes the knife easy to spot if it’s set down in leaves, grass, or gear. Measuring 6.25 inches overall and weighing just 2.5 ounces, the CR2.5 carries light without sacrificing capability, making it an easy addition to a pack, belt, or hunting kit.
A rugged brown leather sheath comes with the knife, offering reliable protection and convenient belt carry. The durable leather construction complements the knife’s classic outdoor style while keeping the blade secure and ready when needed.
Proudly made in the USA, the ESEE Camp Lore CR2.5 reflects the brand’s reputation for dependable field tools built to handle serious outdoor use.
