The Hinderer XM-18 3.5" Skinny Harpoon Spanto Tri-Way in Working Finish with Red G-10 is a folding knife built for those who demand toughness, precision, and uncompromising performance. Among the most aggressive of all 3.5-inch XM-18 blade grinds, the Harpoon Spanto elevates the iconic XM-18 design to a new level of rugged functionality. By combining the legendary strength of the Spanto grind with the added “meat” of the Harpoon topline, this blade delivers a reinforced tip capable of piercing, slicing, and handling heavy-duty tasks with confidence. Crafted from premium CPM-Magnacut steel, the blade offers exceptional edge retention, corrosion resistance, and versatility, making it ideal for everyday carry, outdoor use, or tactical applications.

The “Skinny” edition retains all the cutting power and durability of the standard XM-18 while offering a slimmer, more agile profile. Measuring 8.25 inches overall, with a 3.5-inch blade and a 4.75-inch handle, it balances compact carry with a solid, confident feel in hand. Both the blade and lockside measure 0.140 inches thick, giving the knife rigidity and strength for demanding tasks, while the liner thickness of 0.050 inches adds stability and reliability to the frame. The overall handle thickness of 0.452 inches ensures a secure and comfortable grip during precise or extended use.

The handle is crafted from vibrant Red G-10, paired with a titanium lockside finished in working finish, giving the knife both durability and striking visual appeal. The Tri-Way pivot system allows users to customize the blade’s action using ball bearings, phosphor bronze washers, or Teflon washers, providing smooth or controlled deployment to suit personal preference. Every component, from the reinforced Harpoon Spanto tip to the ergonomically shaped handle, has been engineered for real-world performance. The working finish adds a rugged, utilitarian aesthetic while helping to conceal scratches and wear, making the knife ideal for hard use.

For collectors, outdoor enthusiasts, or everyday carry users who demand reliability and high performance, the XM-18 3.5" Skinny Harpoon Spanto Tri-Way with Red G-10 delivers tactical style, premium materials, and proven durability. Its combination of engineering, function, and visual impact makes it a standout folding knife in any collection or kit.
