SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Hinderer Knives XM-18 OD Green & Battle Black Spear Point is a purpose-built powerhouse that blends rugged American craftsmanship with unmistakable style. Designed for those who expect absolute reliability from their gear, this XM-18 delivers the strength, precision, and durability that have made Hinderer a trusted name among professionals and enthusiasts alike.
At the center of this knife is a 3.5″ spear point blade made from CPM-20CV stainless steel. Renowned for its exceptional edge retention and impressive corrosion resistance, CPM-20CV holds a razor-sharp edge through demanding cutting tasks while standing up to tough environments. The spear point grind provides a balanced profile with excellent piercing capability and controlled slicing performance, making it highly versatile for a wide range of cutting needs. With a blade thickness of 0.16″, it offers the backbone and durability you’d expect from a serious hard-use folder without sacrificing cutting efficiency.
The blade is finished in Battle Black, giving it a bold, low-profile look that’s both tactical and refined. This rugged finish helps conceal wear from regular use while adding an extra layer of corrosion resistance. The lockside features a matching Battle Black treatment, creating a cohesive and aggressive aesthetic that pairs perfectly with the OD green G-10 handle scale.
The OD green G-10 handle offers a secure, confident grip and long-lasting durability. G-10 is prized for its strength-to-weight ratio and resistance to moisture and temperature changes, making it ideal for demanding conditions. The textured surface enhances control without feeling overly abrasive, ensuring comfort during extended use. At 4.75″ closed and 8.25″ overall, the XM-18 provides a full, comfortable grip while remaining practical for daily carry. Weighing 5.6 ounces, it has a solid, reassuring feel that speaks to its robust construction.
Deployment is quick and decisive thanks to the blade flipper. A firm press sends the blade snapping open with smooth, authoritative action. Once deployed, the framelock engages securely, delivering the dependable lockup that’s become a hallmark of Hinderer design. The framelock provides exceptional strength and stability, reinforcing the XM-18’s reputation as a knife built for real work.
Proudly made in the USA, this XM-18 reflects meticulous machining and premium materials throughout. Every edge, contour, and component is crafted with attention to detail, ensuring long-term reliability and performance you can trust.
