The Eklipse is a design born with its own attitude different from my other designs such as the XM-18. I designed the Eklipse with more of a linear approach with regards to handle and blade metrics. With the blade deployed the line from the blade tip flows through to the center of the handle allowing the blade tip to sit centered in your grip. This allows for a really light comfortable feel when using the knife in any task. The double finger grooves and sloping underside of the handle combine to give the Eklipse an ergonomic grip. The thumb ramp with properly sized jimping ensures a solid grip when using the knife in a fencing type grip. As with my other folder models the new Eklipse has a steel lockbar insert and of course comes with my new Triway pivot on board!

The hinderer Eklipse knife is very comfortable to hold and control. The weight is just right for the size and it holds an edge like nobody’s business. This is an excellent knife for any purpose including daily carry
