The Hinderer XM-18 is a testament to the rugged durability and precision engineering that Rick Hinderer brings to every knife he creates. With a 3" S45VN stainless steel Wharncliffe blade, this knife is designed to excel at slicing tasks, delivering an exceptional edge that holds up under heavy use.
