Hinderer XM-18 3.25 Flipper Folding Knife Magnacut Spanto/Red G-10 and Working Finish Titanium KXM325SPANFWFRD

The Hinderer XM-18 3.25 folding knife delivers the rugged engineering and dependable performance that have made Rick Hinderer’s designs a benchmark in the world of hard-use folders. Compact, powerful, and built with premium materials, this knife is designed for everyday carry while maintaining the strength and durability serious users expect.

The 3.25” Spanto blade is crafted from CPM Magnacut stainless tool steel, one of the most advanced blade steels available today. Magnacut offers exceptional edge retention, outstanding corrosion resistance, and impressive toughness, making it well suited for demanding daily tasks. The Spanto blade profile blends the slicing efficiency of a spear point with the reinforced tip strength of a tanto, giving the blade versatility for both precise cuts and heavier work.

Fast, reliable deployment comes from the integrated blade flipper, allowing smooth one-handed opening when time matters. Once the blade is open, the sturdy stainless steel framelock provides secure lockup and dependable stability during tough cutting jobs.

The handle pairs bold style with practical durability. The front scale is constructed from bright red G-10, a lightweight and resilient material known for its excellent grip and long-lasting strength. The rear handle and frame are made from titanium with Hinderer’s rugged Working Finish, a surface treatment designed to resist visible wear and maintain a hardworking appearance. A titanium pocket clip keeps the knife secure in your pocket, and the integrated lanyard hole adds another carry option.

At 4.5” closed and weighing 4.8 ounces, the XM-18 3.25 strikes an ideal balance between portability and strength. Designed by master knifemaker Rick Hinderer and proudly made in the USA, it’s built to perform day in and day out.
