Only if i had more money..

I would have more then one XM. As it has been said many times the XM-18 is a solid knife. I have had one for a while now and its an amazing knife.

 

[Bluesummers]

Nice knife you have there.

I would have to agree.

At first I wasn't that impressed by the knife. Mostly in terms of looks and feel. I wasn't that impressed with how it felt in the hand and this was a shame considering all the praise it gets from being comfortable. It grew on me though. Now I like it and it feels great in the hand.

Yes it is and that DLC is very sexy.

I love the DLC non flipper look.

Yesterday I found out he will sell direct for LEO/ Fire/ Military.
Today I found out he is less than 2 hours from me.
I see a road trip in the near future so I can actually get them in my hand and pick the best on for me.

Wow, looks like a grand slam for you, cool.

 

[mantougege]

So sexy DLC look, wow.

At the risk of (re)opening that can of worms again, the XM-18 lives up to and surpasses the hype, unlike another famous Ti framelock I know, have owned and used. I own a 3.5" flipper and it's already designated as an heirloom An XM-24 is on the list, if I didn't already have an XM-18 it would be my first priority, now it's at #9 or so. I wish I had known about the 4" model before I bought the 3.5".
But Hinderers are excellent. Really truly excellent.

Yep. . . That about sums it up.

I don't think it is DLC, I think they are very dark pictures of the bead blast finish. Nice knife.

That is some sweet gen 1 goodness

 

[Pieter.45]

Looks like a blasted gen.1 to me...
Nice score! These turn up quite rare.

THanks for the nice words everyone. I noticted that my Rick Hinderer Lock Bar Stabilizer is stamped but in many other photos of XM-18's i dont see this. Does anyone know if this is a Gen 1 thing only ?
