Hinderer 3.5 XM-18 Non Flipper Bowie Tri-way Battle Blue Translucent Green G10

The Hinderer 3.5 XM-18 Non Flipper Bowie Tri-way is a robust tool engineered for serious performance. Built around a 3.5-inch CPM S45VN stainless steel Bowie blade, this knife is designed to handle tough cutting tasks with precision and durability. The blade’s stonewash finish provides a rugged aesthetic while also reducing glare and helping hide wear, making it a great choice for heavy use in the field. The CPM S45VN steel delivers a superb balance of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance, ensuring that this knife will hold up in demanding environments.

The thumb stud opening mechanism allows for smooth, easy deployment, while the secure linerlock system keeps the blade firmly in place during use. On the handle side, you get a unique two-tone design with a battle blue finish on the lock side, adding a sleek, tactical look. The other side features translucent green G-10, offering both aesthetic appeal and a secure grip, even in harsh conditions. This combination of materials creates a striking contrast, blending form and function seamlessly. The handle is ergonomically crafted, fitting comfortably in the hand, providing control and stability during use.

The titanium hardware ensures the knife is both lightweight and incredibly strong, designed to resist the elements and wear over time. This knife also features Hinderer’s Tri-Way pivot system, allowing you to switch between ball bearings, phosphor bronze washers, or Teflon washers, so you can customize the knife’s action to suit your preference. For left-handed users, the tip-down pocket clip is a practical touch, allowing easy carry while ensuring the blade remains securely stowed when not in use.

At 4.75 inches closed and weighing 5.6 ounces, the XM-18 strikes a balance between portability and robustness. The 8.25-inch overall length when opened offers ample blade length for a variety of tasks without feeling unwieldy.
