Xm-18 ffg

Has anyone even seen a Hinderer
XM-18 with a full flat ground blade? Looking at pics of one, no markings on blade. I’ve never seen one personally, I’m wandering if someone has
re-ground?

Sounds like a re-grind to me

IMO, even the Hinderer slicer which is a FFG wasn't a good slicer. Sent this one to Big Chris, he did a re grind and now it's a good slicer.

When I say full flat ground I’m talking literally flat ground from edge to spine no flat surfaces. The only thing that puzzles me is it doesn’t look obviously re-ground ya know?

Wouldn't be this one would it? This isn't quite a ffg. If so, @ScooterG should be able to oblige with more pics

I can’t get photos to work, but no that’s not it.

I am not aware of any. Some top level knife makers have done re-grinds and at one time it was a big issue with Rick, since buyers might think it was his work.

Hmm interesting. Perhaps that is what I’m looking at
