Hinderer XM-18 3.0 Harpoon Tanto Working Finish Titanium/Red G-10

The Hinderer XM-18 is a true workhorse, designed by master knifemaker Rick Hinderer for those who demand reliability and performance in their everyday carry. This custom knife boasts a 3" S45VN stainless steel harpoon tanto blade with a stonewash finish, ensuring both excellent edge retention and corrosion resistance. The harpoon tanto blade shape provides a strong, reinforced tip ideal for piercing, while the stonewash finish helps mask scratches and wear, keeping the blade looking sharp even after heavy use.

Equipped with Hinderer's legendary Tri-Way pivot system, the XM-18 delivers an ultra-smooth, consistent action that makes opening the blade with the flipper a breeze. The framelock mechanism keeps the blade securely locked in place during use, giving you the confidence to tackle tough tasks without hesitation. This manual folder is designed for those who need a dependable tool that can stand up to whatever’s thrown at it.

The handle construction is equally robust. The front handle is crafted from red G-10, providing a strong, lightweight grip that performs in any conditions. The rear handle is made from titanium with a special Working Finish, offering added durability and a rugged, well-worn aesthetic that complements the knife’s practical design. A reversible stainless steel pocket clip allows for both tip-up and tip-down carry, and the lanyard hole provides an additional option for keeping the knife within reach.

Proudly made in the USA, the Hinderer XM-18 embodies the high-quality craftsmanship and attention to detail that Rick Hinderer is renowned for. Whether you're in the field or just need a reliable EDC, this knife is built to perform.
