ESEE-3/4, SENCILLO SHEATHS

In 1997, Jeff Randall and Mike Perrin set out to transform the survival and wilderness industry. Frustrated by the widespread exaggeration and marketing hype surrounding “survival” gear and training, they founded Randall’s Adventure & Training to bring real-world knowledge and tools to the market. Their journey began in the dense jungles of Peru, where they worked under contract with the Peruvian Air Force’s “Escuela De Supervivencia En La Selva” (School of Jungle Survival), known as ESSEL. In this extreme environment, they trained countless individuals in the art of true jungle survival. After several years in South America, they relocated their training programs to the United States and expanded their mission by creating a sister company dedicated to crafting high-quality, field-grade knives and gear—ESEE Knives. Their first design, the RTAK, was initially produced by Wicked Knife Company in Arkansas before moving to Ontario Knife Company (OKC). They also contributed to the development of the Laser Strike for TOPS Knives. After five years of refining the RAT line for OKC, they established ESEE Knives as a standalone brand, setting a new standard in the survival knife industry.
