>>2484538Sheeeet man. I know mine is skeletonized because I periodically remove the scales to oil the tang to stop corrosion. I think maybe I got one of the first skeletonized versions back then. It's not broke yet, but I hear you on the fact that a solid tang is definitely stronger than a skeletonized one. I never really warmed to the Esee 5, because it didn't have the sharpening choil. I do like the stainless Esee 4 though. It's my usual "go to" for moto camping, because it's smaller and lighter, but still capable. Good vibes bro.
