Whats your favorite Hinderer knife?

This is what we were able to pick up at the Blade Show. We barely got to the Hinderer booth Sunday noon so it was slim pickins, but I love it. It's one of those things, pics don't do justice. Once it's in your hand, it's like, oh! Nice!

The one on the bottom. It's an XM-18 3.5" SW Magnacut Harpoon Spanto blade, Ti Steel Flame Winged Crusader scale, Steel flame St. Michael clip, Steel Flame sterling tab, full Ti hardware with horse head nuts and matching Hinderer backspacer.

I was pointed at the Jurassic, but went with a XM-18 Skinny Hollow. I'm always second guessing myself. 😵‍💫 I have an Eklipse Hollow, so I thought the Jurassic would possibly be redundant.
 
Which Hinderer is most sought after?
Lots of ways to go here. Some people collect the BPU, Steel Flame, Battle Bound and other collect his customs and earlier models. Gen 1 and Gen 2 XM-18s are also becoming more and more collectible.

I’ve been trying to collect the BPU and Battle Hound models over the last few years.

Here is my R. Hinderer Flame. I would say nearly impossible to find especially in new condition. This one was made by Rick in 2005 as the predecessor to the XM-18.

That's actually pretty neat
 
I’ve owned a skinny xm18 3.5” and a Halftrack and currently have a Fulltrack and non flipper xm18 3.5”. I definitely prefer the non flipper over the flipper and the full track over the Halftrack. I’d like to add a Jurassic and project x at some point to give those a try.

The only pic I have of either right now.

I have been carrying this XM-24 for a long time, maybe 10 years, I am not sure. I got the XM-18 3.5 Harpoon a couple of years ago but have not used it yet. I put a mirror edge 18 degree per side edge on the 24 and it is very sharp. I carry it almost all the time but I don't cut anything with it. I have a Sebenza for the day to day tasks.
