Early on Emerson Knives created the ES1-M, which was developed as an all-around survival knife for the SEAL Teams. That knife (The ES1-M) is what we know today as the Emerson Commander knife. Take a look at the photo below out of Tactical Knives magazine from 1997.

Originally Designed for SEAL Team 6

The Emerson Commander knife is a battle-tested blade and approved by the Navy SEAL Teams as an edged weapon. Originally this knife was developed with input from members of Navy SEAL Team 6 and later made available to the public beginning in 1998. The wave opening feature allows you to deploy the blade as it’s pulled from your pocket making it quicker than auto knives, and in some cases quicker than a concealed fixed blade. Opening the knife using the wave feature will require some practice in order to become consistent. The knife will react differently with different pants depending on how the pockets are constructed – practice, practice, practice.

Tips and Tricks

To make the deployment of the blade as smooth as possible, I recommend applying blue Loctite to the pivot screw and adjusting the pivot to your personal taste. If the handle traction is too aggressive, you can remove the pocket clip and use high grit sandpaper to smooth out the texture of the G10 (under the clip area a bit so that it doesn’t destroy your pocket and makes for a smoother deployment).

Blade and Handle Design

The blade and handle design are what you would expect from Emerson Knives. Once again the ergonomics of the handle are a perfect fit for my hand. I’m not sure what they do during the design phase of these handles, but they always seem to fit my hand like they were custom-made for me. When it comes to the design of the Commander blade itself, there are several factors that I really like about it. First, the recurve design provides a continuous cutting surface making the use of the knife more efficient for the operator. Second, the chisel ground edge allows for ease of maintenance out in the field when you need to bring back a serviceable edge after hard continuous use. Third, the combination of the blade steel (154cM) and heat-treat of the blade steel gives you a highly wear-resistant blade, easily maintainable edge, and lateral strength.

The knife: A foundational tool of human civilization. In its simplest form, a knife is just a sharp edge with a place to safely hold it. Avid Field Mag readers know we tend to believe a less-is-more approach to outdoor gear design is often the best path to success, but when it comes to knives—particularly, survival knives—sometimes more is more. When venturing into nature, carrying a trustworthy pocket knife is highly recommended—it is one of the 10 essentials, after all. A Swiss Army Knife will do for most lightweight backpacking needs. A multi-tool is great for car camping. Your dad’s old folding Buck knife oughta work well enough in most casual situations, too. So what makes a knife a survival knife? Well, as unhelpful as it sounds, a survival knife is any knife you’ve suddenly become dependent on to survive. This could, in theory, be the simple pen knife you keep on a keychain if the situation is dire enough. For our purposes, let’s say you’re a little more prepared than that, and you’ve gotten a specific knife to help you survive, or practice surviving. (Sorry Team Zombie Apocalypse Survivalists, no carbon steel machetes on this list.)

What should I look for in a survival knife?

The two most important elements in most survival situations are fire and shelter. You’ll need some ingenuity and know-how to achieve both, but a good knife will make the job a lot easier.
