SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Hinderer Eklipse Auto pushes the boundaries of tactical performance with American-made precision and raw mechanical authority. Designed by Rick Hinderer and built with the same hard-use philosophy that defines his legacy, this automatic folder features a 3.5" CPM S45VN spear point blade with a battle-ready stonewashed finish. With the press of the button, the blade deploys fast and smooth, backed by a rock-solid button lock that secures the blade in place.
The handle is crafted from titanium and anodized in a rich Battle Bronze tone that adds visual weight and field-tested character. Machined for ergonomic control and enhanced with a textured titanium backspacer, the Eklipse Auto fits the hand like a tool should. Titanium hardware and a matching pocket clip round out the build, delivering strength without compromise. At 4.75" closed and 4.8 ounces, this auto carries solid and performs even harder.
Whether you're in law enforcement, military, or just need a fast-deploying folder you can trust, the Eklipse Auto checks every box—built by hand, engineered for action, and made to last. Proudly made in the USA, it’s a force in the field and on the bench.
