    BD38A243-08A8-4CA7-A957-ECD0361170AB.jpeg Had an afternoon alone. Missed the Xmas house tour with my wife. Oh gee.

    Use my pr4 for some killer chili prep. No pictures had my hands full with sauté and browning beef and sausage.

    Then got outside for some fire starter practice with ferro rod. I always underestimate my tinder needs. Guess that is what practice is for.

    My son brought over a six pack of IPA

    Nice day and I stopped swearing at taking care of my property because I have these opportunities out my back door.

    Processed another deer with the PR4. This blade is ugly as hell but it is my favorite blade. #poundsignsorrynotsorryesee4.

    I like the functionality of this so much for my uses I don’t know why I need my other fixed blades. I suppose I got them so why not keep the. But maybe the pr4 will be my first duplicate or triplecate for all cars and bags.

    It is the best looking ESEE with the Tertiary being a close second.

    I just butchered some boxes for garbage night and I too can’t get enough of this knife. If my ESSE 6 wasn’t so damn sexy it would be sold for another pr4

    It butchers really well! All i did to mine was to take the shoulder back to a slight convex and it slices like a dream.

    A decent review of the PR4. Seems to be based on real world use. Worth a watch.

    I may have said this before, but i never cared for the look of the pr4. After watching Patrick use his, I'm a lot more interested.
