I'll play!
And since in your original post you said "Hinderer-designed items" I will start with my ZT0550 which I picked up not too long ago. Here it is getting ready to open another Hinderer item. 
And here is what was in the box!
And the two "half-brothers", just hanging out....
I also recently picked up a lightly used Armorer's Tool (no pics though, sorry).
Thanks for the side by side shot of two similar knives. As similar as they are, I feel the XM just a little more ergonomic and a whole lot more of everything else . I had a 0550 last year and sold it because it was too blocky. I don't get that feeling with the XM. Congrats on your score, enjoy!

Perfect contribution to this thread. Yes, anything officially Hinderer is welcome and I encourage all to share. Lanyard bead on your go-bag zipper pulls? Investigator pen in your pocket? ME Frag on your ZT 0550/0551...a Cryo, even the Thermite and 0566 are welcome once they are released.

Thanks. I do like the 0550 a lot as well... there is no doubt it is blockier (and heavier) than the XM-18 3.5" and not quite as ergonomic, but it is a TANK it its own right and a really great knife... I don't foresee getting rid of it. In fact, I am hoping to get a rival1314 faux bolster blue/black fade custom scale for it once rival's fingers heal up.
Cool... always enjoy showing off new toys!
I am planning on getting one of those 0566s when they come out later this year... looks like a cool knife. If this thread is still going strong by then, I imagine there will be lots of 0566s posted in it! I am planning on going to the Monkey Edge Muster Grand Opening tomorrow here in Phoenix (Mesa actually)... so who knows, I may have some more Hinderer stuff to post by weekend's end! Wish me luck!!!

Beautiful Rubi! Never seen that design before, ditto on Rick being a true artist!

First one I have ever seen or held is what showed up today. Thanks to Rick for making it and the BF Member that allowed me to be the new home of this amazing knife.
Thank you.
I admit I really didn't know what to expect, I know I didn't think I was going to be particularly fond of it. I am such an XM lover.
I was wrong. This knife blows me away.
I see the family lineage, it is a beautiful tough knife.
Can't stop looking at it.

Agreed. Rick is like a mesmerized Zen Master at the grinder.... I imagine him humming gregarian chants while "the Doors" play in the background.

Doubtful you will be hearing the Doors, more like Rammstein or Rush.
