For the longest time; I have wanted a 3 inch, non-flipper, slicer ground XM-18. I'm sure you guys know they aren't the easiest ones to come by.

Well Monday was my lucky day as a good buddy of mine decided he needed to free up some space in his collection!

Might take a while for it to leave my pocket!
 
Congratulations !!! That is beautiful 3"!
It's always amazing to score the hard to find XM.
The 3" XMs are my favorites as well....always have on in my pocket....
 
Congrats, great choice. That has been my EDC since they first came out. The only potential replacement is a 3" wharnie if I can manage to wrangle one of those, until then, 3" non-flipper slicer it is.

:)
 
Good job on that score. I hope to have a 3 inch non flipper slicer in my collection some day.
 
Great score. Congratulations. I am a big fan of non flippers myself. Use it well!
 
Love the 3" non-flipper slicer. I had one for a short time, should have never sold it. Good looking blade.
 
Very nice EDC indeed. I can't imagine many scenarios that you would find that very capable tool - lacking.
Congratulations and Enjoy.
 
Nice score! I Really like the look of the slicer grind with no flipper.. the lines just flow together. I wonder how the non- flipper 3 inch Wharncliff blade would look? Maybe coming soon at BLADE??
