I have a Rick Hinderer Gen. II Flame framelock with titanium handle slabs, textured black G-10 handle overlays, and a non-reflective sandblasted hand ground S30V spearpoint blade for sale. Rick makes some of the best tactical/utility folders around, and with tight tolerances and perfect fit and finish, this particular Flame is a great example of the quality of his work. Like most of Rick's folders, this knife features his patented Lock Bar Stabilizer to prevent over-travel when disengaging the lock.
I am not the first owner of the Flame listed here, but it does not appear to have ever been carried, used, or resharpened, and its original edge from Rick is very sharp. There are a few faint handling marks on the clip and handle slabs. The opening action is very smooth, and the knife opens easily with a good flick of the thumb. I uploaded a brief video here to demonstrate the action. The lock-up is rock solid, and the blade centering is near perfect.
***TRADED***
Specs:
Condition: Near mint
Blade length: 3 5/8" from tip to handle
Overall length: 8 1/4"
Blade thickness: Just under 3/16" at ricasso
Blade material: CPM S30V
Blade finish: Sandblasted
Edge: Plain
Handle slab material: Titanium, sandblasted, with textured black G-10 overlays
Lock: Titanium frame lock, sandblasted
Backspacer: 2 large stand-offs, sandblasted
Clip: Titanium, sandblasted and pierced, interchangeable between tip up and tip down right-handed carry
For payment on this piece, I can take USPS money orders and PayPal (add 3% in the US to cover most of the fees, 4% outside of the US). I can also take a personal check if I know you. If you are paying by PayPal, I will only ship to a PayPal-confirmed address. I reserve the right to wait for payments to clear before I ship.
I will consider trades (with appropriate cash adjustment) for custom folders and certain custom balis. I am especially interested in the following makers:
JL Williams
Charles Marlowe
Tim Galyean
Deryk Munroe
Jim Smyth
Kit Carson
Jim Burke
Gerry McGinnis
DB Fraley
Bob Lum
Mike Snody
Sal Manaro
Scott Cook
Ernie Emerson
Rick Hinderer
Matt Cucchiara
Todd Begg
Tom Mayo
Neil Blackwood
Ken Onion
Phil Boguszewski
Jens Anso
Flavio Ikoma
Michael Burch
I may consider trades for other custom folders or balis not listed above, especially those with Stellite 6K blades. However, I am not interested in serrated blades, production knives, or fixed blades other than those by John Young or Russ Andrews.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions. Thanks for looking!
