            Wondering how that XM-18 looks without a scale… Is it at all possible to use it like such?..

                DPX Gear HEST (made by LionSteel for them) Triple black version

                Ill post real pics when i get home. Very nice heavy duty knife. Top of blade is about .2" thick and all in all quality seems great. Not sure if im gonna keep it or not yet. But its pretty awesome. After getting my small sebenza i think im going to sell my 25 tho :(. Always felt it was a lil too large for me to EDC. No sense in it just sitting at my house. Shoot me a PM if interested. Ill make a legit FS thread later

                    I think it's actually made of unobtainium

                    Think it, be it.

                        Lol. No shit eh? Those xm-18 are pretty steep. They worth the $200+ over a sebenza?

                        Thx Blackheart. The green version looks pretty sweet as well

                          Hinderer makes a very nice knife and if you can get one direct being Military-LEO-FIRE-EMT it is well worth the money. If you have to pay dealer/grey market. It is just like anything else. You have to decipher how bad you really want/need it. I have spent more then my fair share on Hinderer. They are extremely hefty and it's nice to have. Is it better more practical than CRK. I don't think so.

                                    3.5in and 3in XM-18 - $385+$7 shipping direct from Hinderer
                                    XM-24 and Eklipse - $425+$7 shipping

                                    You can score them at this price during one of the flash sales on their website or at a knife show lottery.

                                    This site sells them for retail but it's rare.

                                        But most dealers charge 0.5-1.5x the direct price.

                                        Some dealers are less of an asshole than others though.

                                        BladeHQ had a couple Eklipses up this week for $650

                                        ...where as GPKnives had a couple up for $850

                                          I've seen a couple for sale at around $400. They're $200 retail I think.

                                          I feel like the Hinderer team creates the hype by limiting production.

                                            No way I'd plunk that much down for a Hinderer. IMO there are better knives out there in that range.
