My very first Hinderer (purchased recently) is this exact configuration with a red G10 scale. It came with a great action and lock-up right out of the box. I'm definitely impressed.
Have the same in WF and black G10. Went through several XMs in different variations until I landed on this one and it’s the one. Agree with you wholeheartedly
I like the Eklipse better than the xm18. If you just don't want a flipper there is non flipper Eklipse. I have one of those that was an E Knives exclusive. I have skinny, fatty all sorts of Hinderers probably 20 of them maybe more. I really like the Firetac too but they are rarely made. Its been like 2 years since I have seen them. The slicers now are hollow. I just got an Eklipse slicer a month or so ago. I already have slicers in the 3 inch and 3.5 didn't have an Eklipse slicer so figured that would be what I would buy since both it and the 3.5 were available at the same time. The xm24 is available too I might buy one of those since they still haven't sold out everywhere and the only xm24 I have is a bowie. I really like my xm18 auto too see they have an auto Eklipse as well now and they finally have them in battle black would like that to go with some of the other battle black models I have. Been a lot of titanium scales lately too just had a Monkey Edge MEFP working finish scale come in the mail last week. I have a few others sitting around I haven't installed too with the horsehead and the exclusive from DLT I have 3 for the 3.5, 2 for the Eklipse, and 1 for a 3 inch just never installed any of them. Oh I have one for my Project X too just a plain bronze.

I love my 3in non flipper slicer. Although if it were 1 knife for the rest of my life I would rather have the 3.5!
Flipper is better
Hahaha to each their own
