Product Description
Izula
The locals in Peru call the meanest, nastiest ant of the jungle by the name "Isula". We know it as the Bullet Ant. The Bullet Ant is known to be independent, tough, light on its feet, and a real aggressive survivor - the IZULA knife is built the same way. This knife is designed to be the perfect lightweight survival kit or concealed carry knife (or UNconcealed if you prefer). Includes durable black injection molded carry sheath.
Care/Maintenance: ESEE carbon steel knives are made from 1095 steel. 1095 is a top choice for professional cutlery designed for hard use, it will rust and stain if not properly cared for – especially on the cutting edge and around the laser engraving. It is the user's responsibility to keep the blades properly lubricated and cleaned. We suggest using a dry film rust inhibitor such as TUF-GLIDE or TUF-CLOTH.

I have medium hands & this original sized Izula is a hair on the petite size, but it's fine. A bigger knife would be too heavy to wear every day. Besides, it's a knife that your index finger naturally rests on the top of the blade, & this gives all your other digits a place on the handle. I can imagine this blade would be an excellent hunting & skinning knife for this reason & it's large bellied cutting edge.
The tiny micarda handle scales are ordered separately. Initially I ordered them from a seller called Prime Valley on Amazon. After waiting 7 days I checked my oder & Prime Valley had not even shipped my handle scales out! I was fed-up & cancelled the order, & was forced to order them through a knife dealer's website. ****So, do NOT give Prime Valley your hard earned $.
These Esee micarda scales only come in an off white color that they call "green" for some reason. However, this neutral color lends itself well to leather dying them any color that you want. I chose black so the knife would be less noticeable, since it hangs on paracord around my neck. The dying was super fast & easy, the micarda soaks it up & doesn't leave residue on one's hands. It's permanent.
So, yes. I highly recommend this sweet little blade & the micarda scales! 5🌟
1yr update: I still edc this knife. It's so handy to have a good blade that's super easy to unsheath with one hand. Prior to this Izula I wore a Benchmade North Fork folder for years around my neck, another great if not better knife, but I hardly used it because I had to pull the paracord necklace that it was on completely off my head to cut with it. This is why I replaced it with this Izula. It's so easy & quick to use.
I have to sharpen the Izula more. Reality, to keep a razor sharp edge on it, have a leather belt handy to strop it on daily. Or, get a little field all in one sharper for it. ( These hand sized sharpeners have everything in one pocket-sized device; 2 diamond plates, ceramic rods & a leather strip. Every 2 weeks or so, I have to tune up the edge on my Izula. Not a big deal.)
The oxide coating has worn thin or completely off on heavily used areas of my knife. However, no rust has set in, which says a lot for this carbon steel Rowen metal, because I don't oil it after every use. ( Since I food prep with it a lot, it usually gets a light coating of butter or olive oil every 2wks & that's been enough to keep it protected.)
I miss my Benchmade, but the great ease of use & handiness keeps the Benchmade in storage, while the little Izula is at the ready on my chest as my continued edc.

The coating is wearing off but that’s to be expected and I keep it well oiled. It holds a keen edge for a long time.
