Just received an Eklipse gen 3 Bowie from Southern edge. Beautiful knife that is perfect in every way. One thing I did not realize is the thickness behind the edge. I do not have the precise equipment to measure it but just going by my finger feeling, I think it could be as thin as that of the XM-18 3.5" skinny slicer. Will upload some pictures later.
Are the backspacers for the Skinny 3,5 different from the normal ones?
I found a bag of spacers marked 3,5 while I was cleaning around the house, but they lack the little "point" the spacers on my "normal" one have.
No idea where, or when I bought them.
Hmm. I've got a Skinny as well, but I left it at work.These look like non-sheep's-foot XM-18 spacers, could be Skinny, normal or Fatty, depending on the size. Sheep's-foot has different scale screws and spacers (similar to Eklipse), I always guessed to make room for the blade-tip.
Had a handle screw break off on me yesterday while cleaning my xm-18. Not very happy about it. Anyone know if I can replace it or not? Local hardware store didn't have any screws that match.
