There is a bit of story on this one...
This Hinderer XM-18 3.5" Gen 4 Spearpoint (CPM20cv) I'm selling is actually all new, except the scale which I put on a Sand colored G10. Upon receipt from the dealer, I saw the lockup was at maybe 5-10%, so I thought I could just fix it myself. Big mistake. While I could blame my kids for distracting me while doing this meticulous task, I should have just contacted RHK right away. Basically, I over ground the lockbar contact on the blade, and now it locks up at 90%. It still has factory edge, flips and closes butter smooth, and the blade is centered, but I'm going to sell it as a crippled unit and the price reflects it.
Price: $SOLD OBO, less than half of what I paid for it - I think it's worth it even for parts. The price is NET to me, I pay USPS priority mail shipping to CONUS.
Don't bother trying to contact RHK, I did and they simply will not help replace the blade outside warranty, not even for a fee.
Here's a video of the flipping action.
