Here is a family shot of folders that are here now . Thanks for ccsmith449 ccsmith449 for advising on the non flipper hinderer . First blush itā€™s built like a tank like most everything on this table . Will enjoy testing it out . At this build quality, the XM-18 seems to be a bargain compared to market prices of the other makers .

Last year the hinderers were selling like hot cakes over tv. The striders were even worse selling way over tv. At bladeshow Atlanta last year strider was completely emptied out by the early birds. Itā€™s nice that we can now get good deals on both.

LGs were always very reasonable up until a few months ago. Itā€™s all yallā€™s fault for their secondary market price! Thanks fellas!

Where is this Secondary Market you speak of? šŸ¤£ (unless seeking a MK3 or ESV) Vultures circling and still picking at the bones otherwise. ;)ā˜ ļø

Yā€™all have beaten down my willpower. Just ordered an ESV from USA Made Blade. I like smaller knives and the ESV looks like the best fit for me. Iā€™ll post a picture and thoughts when I get it.

Congratulations bro! The esv is a beast of a small knife. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts.

Nice, I love my ESVs! You are gonna dig it!
 
Well I've just got the one, as I seem to either just miss out on available LGs I like or be spending my $ on something else that comes along, plus there's less of that to go around in retirement. I pocketed my WC Eagle work knife this morning and had a couple pics left over from the sheetmetal shop so I found this thread and will stick 'em here.

That's one of the earlier Eagles so it's great to see it's still getting put to use. Awesome knife!
