The Hinderer Eklipse Skinny Fullered Magnacut Harpoon Spearpoint Non-Flipper Folder delivers the uncompromising performance, premium materials, and precision craftsmanship that have made Rick Hinderer knives legendary among everyday carry enthusiasts and hard-use knife users alike. Designed as part of Hinderer's popular Skinny Series, this streamlined version of the Eklipse offers all the capability of the standard model in a slimmer, lighter package that carries more comfortably throughout the day.
The Skinny Series was created for those who wanted the proven Eklipse platform with a reduced profile. By slimming both the handle and blade while maintaining the knife's full size, Hinderer produced a folder that feels less bulky in the pocket without sacrificing durability or control. Whether you're carrying it in jeans, work pants, or even dress slacks, the Skinny Eklipse virtually disappears until it's needed.
At the center of this premium folder is a 3.5-inch CPM MagnaCut harpoon spearpoint blade. Widely regarded as one of the finest modern blade steels available, MagnaCut delivers an outstanding combination of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. The harpoon spearpoint profile provides exceptional versatility, making it equally effective for slicing, piercing, and precision cutting tasks. The distinctive fullered blade design not only adds visual appeal but also provides a reliable opening method on this non-flipper configuration, creating a clean and streamlined profile.
The stonewashed finish gives the blade and lockside a rugged, work-ready appearance that helps conceal wear from daily use. Paired with the vibrant red G-10 handle scale, the knife strikes an ideal balance between hard-use functionality and eye-catching style. The textured G-10 provides a secure grip in wet or dry conditions while keeping overall weight down to just 4.4 ounces.
Measuring 8.25 inches overall with a handle thickness of only 0.452 inches, the Eklipse Skinny offers a substantial grip without unnecessary bulk. Hinderer's renowned Tri-Way Pivot System allows users to customize the action by choosing between bearings, phosphor bronze washers, or Teflon washers, giving you complete control over how the knife performs and feels.
From demanding work environments to everyday cutting tasks, the Eklipse Skinny Fullered Harpoon Spearpoint combines premium American craftsmanship, cutting-edge steel, and a carry-friendly design that excels wherever it's put to use. It's a purpose-built folder that proves lighter doesn't mean less capable.
