Sometimes I can be impatient. So when I found out that the Hinderer XM pocket clip and filler tab were titanium and not stainless steel like the rest of the hardware, I took it upon myself to create my own anodized bronze hardware. Since the stock anodized hardware have more of a polished look, I went ahead and polished up the clip and tab. If you try to anodize them with their stock finish, you dont get the same shade of bronze. I achieved the same shade of bronze by anodizing them at 13.5v for about 10 seconds using baking soda as the electrolyte.







 
Man good job! I have a factory ano clip and it's not shiny at all tho. It still has the stonewashed finish.
 
I'm glad to see that posted this. Great job and availability is immediate unlike the factory hardware.
