I thought I'd get some training in for when the S7 comes by carrying my MOD4 when I hiked today ( they should be around the same size with the S7 being a little lighter due to the res-C handle ).

As this hike is nearly all up-hill I started to regret bringing the added weight of the MOD4 !!!

A much needed rest stop....

This gnarly terrain is hard work !!!

The views near the top were spoiled slightly by mist !

Not that Maisy is interested in views, as long as she has sticks she is happy !!!

I soon came to this mountain lagoon and thought it a good rest spot before my return....

Maisy kept watch whilst I poured some tea and took some more pics of my blade...

You know I'll be the first to admit that a Mora would make better feather sticks etc but this beast can still get the job done and seeing as I ask for my knives to be able to chop, hack, pry and butcher I would take a knife such as this over your Mora type blades any day !!!

At this point my tea was gone and it was time to return to the parking lot !!!

Nice scenery, pitman. That MOD 4 looks like a practical camp knife, too.


Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

by the way, pit, your mod4 is what finally got me to pull the trigger on my ranger assault knife. lookin around for the mod4, i realized i could have justin fully convex one of his blades for about the same price, and i had wanted a full convex spear point custom for some time.

It looks like a zombie arm.
