This is the 3” liner lock. The pivot screw is stock. I carry this for work in a suit and needed smooth scales to not tear up my pocket. I was going to do linen micarta initially but since I was going custom I figured carbon fiber.
Thinking about the MXG Milled pocket clip next.
Here’s a picture of the backside.

Yep. Similar generation than the xm18 gen4. On PB washers. Perfect action
Let the hunt begin…I really like the straight lines. After so many years of straight(er) ergos it’s what feels best/natural to me. The XM-18s curves take a bit of getting used to. Don’t get me wrong I really like this beast it’s just different then I’m used to.Yep. Similar generation than the xm18 gen4. On PB washers. Perfect action
It’s a knife I’m really enjoying. Built so tough I want to use it for everything, so I am. So I notice the ergos more then on a knife that just gets occasional use.
I think that’s why I find myself choked up into the choil when useing it as that “ straightens” the knife out in my grip. Didn’t really realize that till just know when writing this…

Just a note that the ZT0393 is a pretty faithful design copy (by Rick). I know it's not the same, but for a working knife it might be just what you are looking for ?

I also suggest to try out ZT0393. I have the version of working finish and glow in dark CF. Dressed it up with some aftermarket micarta scales and a deep-carry clip. Both the ergo and the action are superb.
Thank you Ill check it out. If I do run across the Hinderer, is it the gen 2 eclipse that was before the tri-way with the superb action that is similar to the gen 4 XM?

That looks fantastic. I have the same knife. Where did you purchase the scales?3” Skinny with Karbadize carbon fiber scales.
I don't think I can link you due to the rules. But google up Karabadize. Guy has access to a plethora of materials.
Well that escalated quickly! Inbound to my AO…My wife is not going to care for you much!View attachment 1733094View attachment 1733095

Very cool ! That tab runs > $100 just by itself ....
Well if you know anyone looking for one, send them my way!
Congratulations on a beautiful and rugged knife! Be careful of addiction! I started with a black g-10/stonewash ecklipse (harpoon spanto) and haven’t looked back. 4 flippers (all Ecklipse) and 2 fixed (Emmett and Ranch) later, I am a very satisfied customer. Enjoy the journey!
