    Today is my day of thanks. There is not one knife in my collection that I’ve bought that I’ve not bounced off of your videos or slicey diceys. I appreciate your knowledge on the blade. When your dropping some CHANGE on a knife I want to know what I’m buying. I’m a shy stay at home dad but I feel it’s important to give thanks and credit where it counts. Thanks.

  • @kennethtape3362
    @kennethtape3362 3 года назад

    In the past, whenever a Hinderer came up in a video I used to dismiss it out of hand without rhyme or reason but, as my taste evolves I have to say that the eklipse has that `gateway drug‘ appeal to it that inevitably has to be looked into. I’m definitely going to have to save my pennies and invest in one (or two or three 😄) for the collection. Thanks for the video 👍

  • @Mcfly0856
    @Mcfly0856 3 года назад

    You have completely changed the way I look at Hinderer's. My first knife was a Kershaw Cryo and it kinda ruined the Hinderer experience for me and then hearing the stories about them not being able to flip really made me stay away till I started watching you. Now I'm already looking for my second XM-18!

  • @ryanjennings6541
    @ryanjennings6541 3 года назад

    My front site adjustment tool for the ar-15 fits the back pivot on my xm18 3.5 and 3.0 that's what I been using. Some of my site adjustment tools have 4 prongs. So I just bent two of them out you only need two prongs to adjust you site anyway. Thought xm18 was a more tactical knife because of that lol ...

    Just got my first Eklipse. Holy cow it’s a nice knife. The ergos and action are phenomenal. I think I like it more than the XM-18…which feels weird to write since I love the XM-18 so much.

  • @brocksamson4250
    @brocksamson4250 3 года назад

    I've been debating on an XM-18 (3.5") or XM-24, and even Eklipse for a while now. If the Eklipse came out with the fullered spear I probably get that. A new blade profile even better. Good review, 👍

  • @mickemerson1339
    @mickemerson1339 3 года назад

  • @yankee2yankee216
    @yankee2yankee216 9 месяцев назад

    I like the Eklipse. I like knives that can be described as “extremely comfortable!” I have a Jurassic, which is similar, but broader (what I describe as a “humpback” shape), making it even easier to grip in a man’s hand. I also have an XM-18 3.0, which I like very much, but not because of its action (which is slow) or blade (a reverse tanto “Skinner”), but the fact that it is a perfect Hinderer, with the milled face-scale, in a relatively tiny package. I am coming to like Hinderers quite a lot. I might have to get another…

      True. Never noticed that, before. The handle shape is definitely similar. That would be a cool comparison

  • @yankee2yankee216
    @yankee2yankee216 9 месяцев назад

    The Jurassic also uses T6 screws, and that is the most recent (Tri-Way) version! These are (relatively) big, hard-use knives. Why can’t they have big, hard-use screws?

  • @seanlowkey9388
    @seanlowkey9388 3 года назад

    4” is my personal standard, 3.875 i think is where i draw the line. Although i found the xm24 extremely attractive, the finger choil was a turn off for me. I’ve been hoping knife influencers convince makers to make larger knives. I live in California and exercise my right to carry a larger blade. I edc a cold steel recon 1 spear point s35vn. Eklipse with a four inch blade, in the words of Dirty Harry make my day.

    Why is it that the halftrack is so highly reviewed, but popularity as an EDC doesn’t seem to follow? I find it to be way more practical than a XM-18 for daily use.

      They're expensive but they really are great knives. I own two so obviously I think they are worth it. After getting my first Hinderer I never carried another ZT again. In fact, I'm selling both of my ZT's. The hardware is such an improvement over the cheap ZT hardware that was probably bought in bulk from China.
