Hinderer XM-18 Handle Plates

any of the hinderer authorized dealers, or the exchange's. There is a bit of a wait for the scales just like the knives themselves.
 
The Knife Cellar is one place I can think of off hand. Oh, ad Blue Line Gear. Both places are excellent to deal with!!
 
is it a pain to put the scales on? I think I have an XM-18 coming in soon, and am thinking about getting them.
 
oh, but there's no bushing on the pivot, so will I have to tweak the pivot and loctite it in place? also, all I've got is blue loctite, which for my uses has always been removable, but I've noticed for knives a lot of places recommend purple, is blue really too strong for knives? I figured a huge pivot screw like the XM-18's could handle it.
 
blue is fine. just don't use too much!

If you visit Rick's site, he has a list of dealers and most carry the scales.
 
Thanks for the help guys. I'm really looking forward to my 3.5" coming in the mail. Hopefully I can pick up a 3" with flipper, but those seem to be much more rare.

Ha that's what I hear but i've been trying to get a 3.5" for awhile with no success but managed to snag a 3" flipper by accident. :D
 
Yes MR. H can set you up. I going to have him make a sculpted carbon fiber scale for mine. His work is top notch.
