Dear OKC,
The RD4's micarta scales need to be less blocky. I beveled mine with a grinder and as a result the knife was much improved.
Also, the factory edge was extremely shallow. Am I the only one?
Anyway, I completely re-profiled it on an india stone. The 5160 takes an extremely sharp edge with an Arkansas stone. I love this steel and hope OKC uses it more often in the future.
