Details

Generation 2 DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) coated version of the Eklipse Flipper from Rick Hinderer Knives sporting a Black/Gray layered G10 handle scale and premium CPM-S35VN blade steel. This second gen has a larger overall frame than the first gen allowing for a wider variety of blade styles. This one, in particular, is ground to a Bowie trailing-point style razor sharp with a Gray DLC finish.

Brand new direct from Hinderer Knives, USA.

The Blade: 3.5 inch trailing point-styled perfect for every day slicing and piercing tasks. The gray DLC finish is strong and should hide wear over time while also looking cool. It operates via two thumb studs or integral flipper tab on Rick's own 17-4PH state-of-the-art pivot system creating clean, smooth function over the life of the knife. Flipping action is quite easy and smooth, however a bit of wrist action may be required. An upper swedge grind really sets this blade off and about a half an inch of jimping on the spine makes the perfect thumb rest.

The Handle: The same Gen 1 stylings you love on just a bit larger platform. The finger grooves, shape and texturing fit the hand like a glove. It's a harmoniously ergonomic experience designed with comfort in mind. This version is dressed in black and gray layered G10 secured to a titanium liner with a gray DLC titanium frame locker on the back. All the standard Hinderer features are present from the Lockbar Stabilizer to open construction and a Ti pocket clip that can be flipped to tip up carry. 

The Eklipse Gen 2 is an outstanding package for the first responder, tactical operator or 9-5er.
