Got my R-4 DOTD knife the other day. Shipping as usual was very fast. This will most certainly be my new belt knife. It had apparently not been used at all. Was fairly hard to sharpen, meaning the steel this knife is made from is very hard. Very well tempered. The tang is thicker than the blade itself is. Big enough to be very usefull, but not too big to draw unwanted attention. Don't get me wrong, I carry my BAS when I walk my AmStaff. But the R-4 is better when say, grocery shopping and such. Overall a good knife that should last a long time. Razor sharp now BTW. I'll post pics as soon as I figure out how to.

Looking forward to the pictures.
The best way is to upload pics from photobucket.

I upload the pics to a facebook acct, set the privacy to "everyone", right click on the photo to get the properties, copy the url, and then use the image tool at the top of the posting screen to insert the picture into the post.
