Jensen....you really need to hold it to appreciate just how much of a master Rick really is.....
The double finger spaces and the depressed thumb area at the top literally make this knife MELT into your hand.....and I thought the XM was a dream to hold
.....and the weight....it's just not there....it's feels closer to the weight of a full-ti 3" XM......
And it is so smooth to flip.....with very little effort....no matter how you're holding it.....
And then there's the grind......
RDA. Any signs of wharnie 3" for Blade show? Thanks.
I think that might be a possibility. I need to talk Rick into grinding me one, I have been working that angle for at least two years.
A 3" baseball wharnie for a matching set![]()
No, I need a user, I plan to carry it every day.
I was at the shop on Saturday and a set of prototype Eklipse milled out sides are sitting by the one CNC machine, they look lonely.
The Eklipse is interesting, when Rick first showed me one, he commented how well he felt it fit his hand, even better and more comfortable than the XM.

Looks great Chris. Are you running blue standoffs as well?
Indeed I am, also have a blue LBS on it. Just missing the filler tab and pocket clip.
