Based on the popular Zancudo, ESEE has built the Xancudo fixed blade with a similar design and upgraded materials delivering an excellent everyday carry fixed blade knife. You get the same utilitarian drop point blade and ergonomic handle design now with a high performance CPM S35VN blade and high visibility, Orange and Black layered 3D G10 handle scales and carabiner hole.

Brand new, direct from ESEE Knives, USA.

Blade: Fully flat ground, the S35VN drop point blade has a heavy stonewashed finish to hide wear from use and delivers excellent slicing performance. Spine jimping pairs with the index finger choil on the handle for added security. S35VN delivers a good balance of performance and holds up well under heavy use. Brand, model and steel markings are laser etched on the front of the blade.

Handle: A full tang construction supports ESEE's new 3D machined handles in hi-viz orange and black layered G10. Contoured to fill the hand, the 3D scales are comfortable during prolonged use while offering excellent traction in wet and dry conditions thanks to the milled texture. Attached securely with black oxide stainless steel hardware, the scales have a prominent finger choil for a secure, controlled grip while still offering multiple grip options. This version is equipped with a large hole in the handle for use with a carabiner or lanyard attachment.

Carries via a custom molded polymer sheath.

CPM S35VN: was designed to offer improved toughness over CPM S30V. It is also easier to machine and polish than CPM S30V and the adjusted chemistry makes CPM S35VN about 15-20% tougher than CPM S30V without any loss of wear resistance. CPM S35VN’s improved toughness gives it better resistance to edge chipping.
