Introducing The New Canadian-Made Esker Care Collection
This season, Esker is expanding beyond their tools and equipment with a new collection designed to help keep outdoor gear in great working condition for years to come.
Introducing a Canadian-made Esker Care collection of thoughtfully formulated products for maintaining the blades, leather, wooden handles and wood gear that are part of life outdoors.
The new collection includes Blade Care, Leather Care, Handle Care and Wood Care, each developed with natural and non-toxic ingredients. From protecting an axe head between trips to conditioning a favourite leather sheath or bring new life to a well-used paddle, Esker Care makes routine gear maintenance simple.
ESKER Blade Care
Protect your blades from moisture, rain, and corrosion! Esker Blade Care is a plant-based blade oil made to help extend the life of axe heads, knife blades, saw blades, and other metal tools and parts of your outdoor gear. Whether stored between trips or carried through damp conditions, caring for them regularly helps keep them reliable for every journey.
The non-toxic, petroleum-free, biodegradable formula comes in a portable spritzer bottle that is easy to carry and apply at home, or on the go.
Developed by Esker and made in Canada, Blade Care reflects our commitment to practical gear care, local craftsmanship, and supporting independent Canadian makers.
ESKER Leather Care
Esker Leather Care is a plant-based blend of natural oils and waxes made to moisturize, condition, and protect leather knife and axe sheaths from water, moisture, and the elements. Regular care helps keep leather supple, waterproof, and ready for the next journey.
The petroleum-free, non-toxic, biodegradable formula absorbs into the leather and buffs to a deep lustre and shine, with a subtle pine scent. Apply with your fingers or a lint-free cloth, let absorb, then buff gently.
Developed by Esker and made in Canada, Leather Care reflects our commitment to practical gear care, local craftsmanship, and supporting independent Canadian makers.
Comes in a compact, reusable 5 cm tub that is easy to carry in a pack, toolbox, or gear-care kit.
ESKER Handle Care
Esker Handle Care is made for the wooden handles that travel with you through damp camps, cold mornings, long portages, and hard use outdoors. Made with beeswax from Canadian apiaries, this simple gear-care essential creates a protective layer that helps protect from moisture while improving the natural feel and grip of the handle in hand.
To apply, work a small amount into the wooden handle with your fingers or a lint-free cloth, and then buff for the desired amount of tackiness. The product is formulated to provide better grip and guard against slippage.
Developed by Esker and made in Canada, Handle Care reflects our commitment to practical gear care, local craftsmanship, and supporting independent Canadian makers.
Comes in a compact, reusable tub that is easy to carry in a pack, toolbox, or gear-care kit.
ESKER Wood Care
Esker Wood Care is an all-natural hemp oil made for wooden knife handles, axe handles, paddles, canoe gunwales, wooden spoons, cutting boards, and other wooden gear. It helps create a protective, water-resistant finish while deepening the natural colour and character of the wood.
The solvent-free, VOC-free, food-safe formula is simple to use, easy to clean up with soap and water, and suitable for both outdoor tools and everyday wooden items.
For bare wood, apply 1–3 coats as needed and allow the oil to cure in the sun. Remove any excess after 24 hours.
Developed by Esker and made in Canada, Wood Care reflects our commitment to practical gear care, local craftsmanship, and supporting independent Canadian makers.
Available in 250 ml and 500 ml bottles.
Take Care of the Gear That Takes Care of You
Outdoor gear doesn’t need to look brand new to perform at its best. Some of our favourite tools are the ones that show where they’ve been.
A little regular maintenance can help protect those tools, extend their useful life and get them ready for whatever comes next. With the launch of Esker Care, there’s now a simple Canadian-made system for looking after everything from blades and leather sheaths to wooden handles and paddles.
