Lets see some Hinderer action

My 2 latest Hinderer builds…. They really feel like they’re MINE now 😁
MEFP Textured CF scale, 2024 tab & black hardware on my harpoon tanto
TheFactor TheFactor gave me the inspiration to do black hardware w/ the stonewashed blue, after seeing how great his Jurassic looked with that combo! Thanks Bro!

I got it yesterday. Perfect action, no blade play, etc. just noticed 5 minutes ago the blade was off center, flicked it open and blade play. Took a penny to the pivot and sure enough it’s loose. So tightened it up and added some loctite. Absolutely crazy that a $425 knife from Hinderer came like that.

I have locktite on two of mine, but the rest have stayed snug without any. At least it was an easy fix, and unlike my Military 2, they go back together without any problems 😂

It probably backed off after a couple of flicks . But agreed it shouldn’t have but “sometimes” I don’t think they use loctite on the pivots or hardware.Yes it’s happened to me also on pivots and handle screws .
With that said easy fix and love my Hinderers and my Eklipse has become my favorite. No lockbar drag on release not even a click smooth as butter . Really love it in all areas 👍🏻

Arrived last week. Great action but centering is off and noticed today a rattling noise when flipping it. The bottom hex screw had loosened causing it to rattle. This is my 2nd new Hinderer in 2 weeks that has had hardware loosen on its own with just flipping and no use. Not really acceptable on a $425 knife.

I always check mine first thing and takes about 15 seconds :) . I actually don’t mind and enjoy it lol. Then it’s good to go and don’t have to worry about it again accept for normal Maintence. I’m actually glad and rather have them use very little or no loctite. Then I just can add how much I like when disassembling. I get what you’re saying but again for me it doesn’t bother me and they more then make up for it with the fit and finish and quality of the knife and that you can’t tighten ;)
