I am sure I will regret this later, but I have decided to downsize in order to free up some toy buying funds. I quit my job to go back to school full time, so I promised myself I would only make unnecessary purchases if I sold something I was not using. I collected the full set of spanto XM-18s, and these two took a while to find. For whatever reason though, I always seem to carry my standard 3.5", so I decided to let these go. Prices are all-in, meaning I cover PayPal fees and Priority shipping. US buyers only at this time. Please use the goods/services with PayPal, as I will only be shipping to a confirmed address. If you have any questions or want any additional pictures, please let me know. I am open to reasonable offers, but my prices are already well below what I paid for them. No trades at this time.
Hinderer XM-18 3" Spanto - $350
I purchased this used and have carried it very little. I converted it to phosphor bronze washers, and will include the original teflon ones. Black scale. It has a bronze LBS installed, and comes with the original as well as bronze stand-offs, scale screws, and pivot screw (but not pivot nut or scale nuts). It has been sharpened on oil stones to a near mirror finish and is extremely sharp. It is well centered and has a medium strength detent (perfect detent IMHO. It flips nicely without killing your finger). It comes with original box, peanuts, etc.
Hinderer XM-18 3.5" Fatty Spanto - $450
I purchased this LNIB and have carried it very little. I converted it to phosphor bronze washers, and will include the original teflon ones. I replaced the original green/black scale with a brand new blue/black scale, and I had the Ti bead blasted my Maprik. It has been sharpened on oil stones to a near mirror finish and is extremely sharp. It is well centered and has a strong detent (almost too strong, IMHO. It flips with authority but is tough on the finger pad. I am sure it will break in nicely though). It comes with the original box, peanuts, etc.
Added a few new pics since the others are weirdly colored:
