My New Gen 1 XM

[Maprik]

So can I spill the beans?

Yes, by all means!

 

[APOD]

Wow, Fantastic catch Phil. I love the look of the older spanto blades specially the tip. Congratulations.

 

[Lone_Wolfe]

Yes, by all means!

The anticipation is getting to me.

Thanks APOD! No doubt this is an awesome knife! I have enjoyed owning it tremendously, although I have realized that it's just too much knife for my EDC needs and I don't have a safe. The 3" XM is really the perfect knife for me. As a result I am going to let my friend Lone_Wolfe assume ownership of this amazing piece of Hinderer history. So congrats should now go to her!

I spilled!

 

[Lone_Wolfe]

I spilled!

Now the anticipation is REALLY getting to me.

Wow what beans!!!

 

[Locutus D'Borg]

Wow, the machinations that go on here - fabulous! Gotta love it.

 

[Maprik]

Now the anticipation is REALLY getting to me.

Enjoy it! Over the years I've learned that the anticipation is a wonderful part of the whole experience!!!!!:thumbup:

Funny thing happened on the way to the market!!! As it turns out LW doesn't want the Gen 1 after all so the Gen 1 is returning to me. Truthfully I've missed that knife and am starting to wonder about some kind of horizontal carry option. Distance makes the heart grow fonder? Anyway, she's kindly forwarding it to RHK for a complete refurbish. It's about to emerge as a refreshed Gen 1. New life, new start.

 

[Need2Know]

Interesting.

It's a true love type story. You set her free only to her ultimately return.

Indeed!

Truly interesting how this knife has travelled... I've never met Lone_Wolfe but my Gen 1 has...weird.

 

[RobertK]

Haha!

 

[l8apex]

Congrats!!! That's is indeed a sweet piece of history.

 

[RobertK]

Such a fun group on the RH boards, isn't it?

Like the Dreamweaver scene(s) from Wayne's World?

This might get awkward.

Maprik and I got a good laugh out of this, funny how a miscue sometimes really turns out for the better. :thumbup:

Shall I give it a kiss before I send it on?
