Hinderer Eklipse Translucent Green – Battle Black 3.5in Plain Working Skinny Slicer KEKSKSLHOTWBBKTG

The Hinderer Eklipse Translucent Green & Battle Black is a knife that seamlessly combines cutting-edge performance with a bold, distinctive design. Proudly made in the USA, this everyday carry folding knife reflects Hinderer’s commitment to precision craftsmanship, thoughtful engineering, and dependable durability. With its translucent green handle and Battle Black stainless steel rear scale, it delivers a striking visual presence while performing as a rugged, reliable tool built to handle real-world use.

At the heart of the Eklipse is its 3.5-inch skinny slicer blade, crafted from CPM MagnaCut stainless steel. MagnaCut is renowned for its exceptional toughness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance, making it ideal for a knife designed for daily use as well as demanding tasks. The skinny slicer profile is complemented by a hollow grind, enhancing slicing efficiency and providing a smooth, precise cutting experience. At .14 inches thick, the blade balances strength with agility, allowing for precise cuts without sacrificing durability. Finished in Hinderer’s Working style, the blade maintains a rugged, utilitarian look while effectively hiding scratches and wear from everyday carry and use.

The handle design of the Eklipse pairs functionality with style. The front scale is made from translucent green G-10, providing a lightweight, textured surface that delivers a secure grip while offering a visually unique look that stands out in any collection. The rear handle is Battle Black stainless steel, finished to match the rugged aesthetic of the blade while adding balance and structural integrity. Measuring 4.75 inches closed and 8.25 inches overall, the knife is compact enough for comfortable pocket carry while providing ample grip and control when deployed. At only 4.4 ounces, it’s light enough for daily carry without feeling insubstantial in hand, offering the perfect balance between portability and presence.

Hinderer’s Tri-Way pivot system allows users to tailor the blade action to their preference. Whether you choose ball bearings for a buttery-smooth feel, phosphor bronze washers for rugged consistency, or Teflon washers for a controlled, traditional deployment, the Eklipse adapts to your needs. Opening the blade is effortless with the flipper or ambidextrous thumb studs, while the framelock ensures solid, reliable lockup, giving confidence and stability during use.

Additional features make this knife practical and versatile. A tip-down pocket clip keeps it secure and easily accessible, while the lanyard hole provides options for customization or alternative carry methods. Every aspect of the knife has been designed to maximize functionality and user experience, reflecting Hinderer’s dedication to high-quality, real-world tools.
