The Hinderer Eklipse Skinny Fullered Magnacut Harpoon Spearpoint Non-Flipper Folder delivers the proven strength, precision engineering, and rugged dependability of Rick Hinderer Knives in a refined, slimmer platform built for everyday carry. Part of the Skinny Series, this model preserves the full-size Eklipse footprint while reducing overall thickness, creating a lighter, more pocket-friendly knife that still performs like a true hard-use tool.
The Skinny Series was designed for users who wanted the same trusted performance as the standard Eklipse but in a reduced-profile configuration. By slimming the handle and blade thickness without altering the overall dimensions, Hinderer created a knife that carries more comfortably in a wide range of environments. It slips easily into pockets and rides discreetly in dress slacks, lightweight pants, or everyday carry setups where bulk reduction matters, all while maintaining the strength and control expected from the platform.
At the core of this folder is a 3.5-inch CPM MagnaCut harpoon spearpoint blade. MagnaCut represents one of the most advanced stainless steels available, offering an outstanding balance of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. It’s engineered for real-world use, making it equally capable in daily cutting tasks and demanding environments. The harpoon spearpoint geometry enhances versatility, delivering excellent slicing performance, strong piercing capability, and precise control. The fullered blade design adds both functional refinement and visual character, improving handling while reinforcing the knife’s clean, purposeful lines in this non-flipper configuration.
The handle features a striking two-tone G-10 layout, with a battle blue clip-side scale paired with a red G-10 front scale. This bold contrast delivers a distinctive visual identity while maintaining the durability and grip performance G-10 is known for. The textured surface ensures a secure hold in all conditions, while the lightweight construction keeps the overall carry weight at just 4.4 ounces.
Measuring 8.25 inches overall with a 4.75-inch handle and a 3.50-inch blade, the Eklipse Skinny offers full-hand control in a streamlined profile. At 0.452 inches thick on the handle, it maintains a slim carry presence without sacrificing rigidity or comfort. The 0.140-inch blade and lockside thickness reinforce long-term durability, while Hinderer’s Tri-Way Pivot System allows users to customize action with bearings, phosphor bronze washers, or Teflon washers depending on preference.
From daily cutting chores to more demanding field applications, this knife is built to deliver consistent performance with precision and strength. It reflects Hinderer’s philosophy of overbuilt reliability refined into a lighter, more carry-friendly form.
