    Sweet. The flipper has a tougher detent that makes it kinda hard to thumb flick with the blade stops. How is it on the non-flipper? I heard they lightened it up a bit to make it easier.

    I have the new eklipse and the pb washers are good and will break in but out of the box bearing are soo good. I have some micarta scales coming for my eklipse, well I need to send her to my guy rcbladeworks.com since he doesn’t have a jig for it yet and he’s doing it for free. I have about 4 different sets of micarta from him. He has xm-18 model scales I suggest looking at his site for micarta scales.

    DTOM Knives and Gear you need to go to the drop down menu in the top right corner and click made to order scales you need to select 1 scale knife then there is a list of all his colors click on picture of the micarta then there is a selection for what knife model and then pocket clip placement. Everything is in stock in that list because it’s made to order.

    Funny how this knife is designed for first responders. I’ve been a volunteer firefighter for 6 years. Almost no one carries a knife on the department. If they do have a knife, it’s usually a CRKT or a Kershaw. Some people keep leathermans on their firefighter turnouts. I’ve always wanted a hinderer and I bet they are a great tool for first responders. I’m just saying that from my personal experience, the firefighters buy knives that are under $100

    I bet for the most part you are correct. Since Rick Hinderer was a firefighter that is what he was thinking about when he designed it. I don't know many FF but the ones that i know are not necessarily knife guys and they just have a knife on them as a tool and as long as it works they are good.
