SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Hinderer Eklipse 3.5" Smooth Green Micarta Scale is a purpose-built upgrade that adds a refined, natural look and excellent in-hand comfort to your Eklipse 3.5" folding knife. Proudly made in the USA by Rick Hinderer Knives, this scale offers an ideal balance of style, durability, and performance. Whether you're replacing a worn component or customizing your setup, this scale delivers a clean, classic aesthetic with practical benefits built into its design.
Crafted from smooth green micarta, the scale provides a warm, organic feel that improves with time and use. Unlike synthetic textures, micarta gains character as it absorbs oils from your hand, resulting in a unique patina that reflects how you carry and use your knife. It’s also lightweight, resilient, and able to withstand temperature and moisture changes without compromising performance.
The smooth surface offers a more understated grip than heavily textured G-10 but still delivers solid control for daily carry. It's CNC-machined for a precise fit, maintaining the structural integrity and tight tolerances the Eklipse platform is known for. The contours of the scale follow the ergonomic shape of the knife’s frame, ensuring it feels as good as it looks in the hand.
This scale supports ambidextrous clip positions, thanks to Hinderer's modular design. Whether you're left- or right-handed, or simply prefer to adjust your carry style, the scale accommodates without hassle. It also works seamlessly with the Eklipse's titanium lock side and hardware, making installation straightforward for those comfortable with knife maintenance.
For those who appreciate both form and function, the Smooth Green Micarta Scale offers a tactile experience, natural aesthetics, and solid everyday performance. It’s a durable choice that doesn’t just look good—it works hard, too. Check out more knife parts at SMKW!
