The latest edition to the production line up.

Looks fantastic! Any chance of alternative grinds for the Eklipse? I'd love to see a spearpoint like this on the Eklipse :D
 
Oh boy, I am really liking that grind. Time to start saving my money.

That looks enough like a Spanto (my favorite) that it's mine as soon as I can get my hands on it!

I know the resemblance is vague, but I must have some way to rationalize it.

It's the "slicer" you've been waiting for :D ...or at least, it's the "slicer" that I've been waiting for (I get that the functionality of having a stronger grind at the base and more slicey grind at the tip, but I never particularly cared for the aesthetics of the sloping grind).
 
Oh man so many awesome Hinderers, and so little money in my bank account :P

Gotta get my bowie first but I might pick this over a skinner, or win the lotto and buy both!
 
Some of you amuse me a little...in the future it's likely if more Eklipse knives are made that other grinds will be offered and that these production grinds will eventually wind up in all 3 sizes of XMs. But it will take time.
 
Thats awesome Rob, thanks for sharing! The spearpoint will be a huge hit...very nice piece!
 
All of the blades we have been introducing in the 3.5" will make it into the 3" as well as the XM-24 at some point. The XM-24 will get a few new blades this summer.

Thats GOOD news and BAD news. Good news is that I see many more exciting quests to secure all the RHK grinds. BAD news? My poor budget and bank account see no relief in sight.
But life is fun. Full of problems, but fun!
