Hinderer XM-18 3.25 Flipper Folding Knife Magnacut Spanto/Coyote G-10 and Stonewash Titanium KXM325SPANFSWCY

The Hinderer XM-18 3.25 folding knife delivers the hard-use performance, rugged construction, and precision engineering that have made Rick Hinderer’s designs legendary among serious knife users. Built for dependable everyday carry, this compact XM-18 packs the same overbuilt durability and field-ready capability that define the entire Hinderer lineup.

The 3.25” Spanto blade is crafted from CPM Magnacut stainless tool steel, a cutting-edge alloy prized for its outstanding balance of toughness, corrosion resistance, and edge retention. The Spanto profile combines the slicing efficiency of a spear point with the reinforced tip strength of a tanto, giving the blade versatility for both controlled detail work and demanding cutting tasks.

A flipper tab provides fast, smooth one-handed deployment, making the knife quick to bring into action when needed. Once open, the sturdy stainless steel framelock delivers secure lockup and confidence during hard use.

The handle blends rugged materials with ergonomic design. The front scale is made from durable Coyote Brown G-10, offering excellent traction and a tactical appearance that stands up to demanding conditions. The rear handle and frame are constructed from titanium with a rugged stonewash finish that resists wear while maintaining a clean, work-ready look. A titanium pocket clip ensures reliable carry, and a built-in lanyard hole provides additional carry options for those who prefer it.

Measuring 4.5” closed and weighing 4.8 ounces, the XM-18 3.25 offers a balanced combination of strength and portability. Designed by master knifemaker Rick Hinderer and proudly made in the USA, it’s built to handle real work day after day.
