Best pics to date in my humble opinion.

Is it just me or are the first few pics not loading properly?

Those are still some really good pictures.

I managed to snag a user ss4 and I agree with you. It's a great knife!


JYD #82 yup...

Excellent pics - thanks for posting them! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> They reminded me of Bandit, a purebred malamute I had many years ago. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

They all worked fine for me.
My youngest daughters favorite dogs are Siberian Huskies, we had a walleye when she was young and it was her "first dog"

Good looking dogs, and they look like they love their jobs there. Beautiful country too, but a little cold for this southern boy.........just had to turn the heat up from looking at all the snow.

Thank you all for kind words!

I could show you other pictures if you want ? I'll try to add more pictures with a SS4 at work.

Pvt.snoballz: We do have some puppies for sale but I don't know if the owner could make some shipment arragement ? About "charter tours", I'm not sure what do you mean (I'm not so good in english!), but if you mean that you want to do some dog sledding, yes of course, you can do it.

It's a good idea that you contact them at (they speak and write in english):

Take note that the sheath was made by Rainwalker and it's very well made.

Hi,

I spent some time at Aventures Nord-Bec, a dog sledding company (Stoneham, Quebec, CANADA). They have around 220 dogs of three breeds: siberian huskies, alaskans and alaskan malamutes.

I often use SS4 for various usage and I really like it. I use it to cut various things, remove frozen food, cut cords and woods, etc.

It's a very well made knive, I can't ask more. Small enough to carry it and solid with a very comfortable handle. I abuse it, for example, removing frozed food from metal dog bowl. I first stomp on it around metal bowl and then I stomp harder on one area and then I pry it out. Obvously, I often hit the metal, but I don't care, SS4 is very solid and won't chip:

My friend has a 30$ knive and it's very chipped, it's more like a saw than a knive. He is very impressed with mine. Me either.

The only drawback of SS4: it's very hard to sharpen it on a stone...


Here's my SS4:

Here's the following pictures of Aventures Nord-Bec, a very nice company. One thing I like from there is that they never hit dogs. If they saw someone of us hitting a dog, they will fire him without question whatever the reason is.

Ferrari with a scar on his nose. Dogs happens to fight between them and when they fight, they do it to kill. We already lost a dog because of it. It's not a 'normal' fighting like other dogs. We have to separate them fast and wisely. It's more like an art than a science to stop the fight. We don't hit them, even during a fight.

Thanks to Dan for making the SS4, it's one of the best knive I ever owned.


I dont think I have heard of such a knife test <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

Very cool pics, thanks for sharing

Dan
