XM 18 3.5 Spearpoint 20cv Tri-way in full Ti
Upgrades:
- Full-weight Hinderer Ti scale without milling
- Custom stonewash on both the scale and lock side to match
- The spearpoint blade has a hollow grind by BGM knives, and I sharpened and stropped it on a KME.
- Custom Ti deep carry clip
- Single screw filler tab.
- Skiff bearings installed, but I will include all the original Tri-way pivot hardware.
(Over $280 in upgrades.)
The action is perfect, with snappy (but easy) opening from both the thumb stud and flipper and glassy drop-shut action (see Video of knife). The original bearings have ceramic balls instead of the original stainless steel.
It has been lightly used and carried occasionally. The only issue it has is that the stop bar can rattle a little when the knife is open. This is likely because of slightly different tolerances in the mounting hold of the older full-weight Ti scale and the newer knife. I've spent a lot of time, energy, and resources on this knife, and I'm sad to see it go.
$650 > 615 PP (F&F preferred but not a deal-breaker) shipped priority and insured.
No trades at this time, please. Let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks for looking!
