Anyone have any information or know what choil-less blade styles were made and for which models... I know there are a lot of blade styles from RH, but specifically looking for an 3.5 Harpoon Spanto either XM-18 or Eklipse with NO Choil if that even exists...

Thanks all

AFAIK, no Eklipse has a choil.

There are some special no-choil 3.5 XM18, I remember DLT tri-way Slicer and Wharncliffe, and a Spanto (Gen 4) a long time back - not sure about Spanto tri-ways.

In addition, there was the no-choil 3.5 XM18 Skinny Slicer.

Was just doing a bit of research .... and came to believe there never was a no-choil Spanto Harpoon XM18. Only a Spanto (no Harpoon).

So your only choice is this one:

You are lucky: available right now at Southern Edges (good store IMO) - maybe other stores, too, didn't check.

Yeah, I would consider below a no choil blade...

Thanks... Yeah, I figured they probably did not make a Choil-less Harpoon...

I consider the Eklipse having a "sharpening choil". This is XM18 with finger choil, i.e., larger.

Yes, as a matter of fact I have an 3.5" Eklipse Harpoon Spanto on the way now... (Wishing it was Choil-Less though), but I will live...
