The Hinderer XM-18 3.5 Bowie Stonewashed OD Green Bronze Titanium is built for those who demand uncompromising performance, precision engineering, and a design that stands apart from the crowd. As one of Rick Hinderer’s most respected and sought-after folding knives, the XM-18 has earned its reputation through years of real-world use, trusted by knife enthusiasts, collectors, and professionals who know exactly what quality feels like in hand. This version combines the aggressive lines of the Bowie blade profile with rugged materials and a finish that’s as durable as it is visually striking.
At the heart of this folder is a 3.5-inch CPM 20CV stainless steel Bowie blade with a rugged stonewash finish. Known for its exceptional edge retention, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance, CPM 20CV is premium blade steel built to excel under demanding conditions. The Bowie profile offers excellent piercing capability thanks to its pronounced clip point while maintaining a strong cutting belly for slicing tasks. Whether you're handling daily utility work, outdoor cutting chores, or adding it to a serious collection, this blade is engineered to perform with authority. The flipper tab deployment is crisp and responsive, delivering fast, reliable action every time.
The handle pairs OD green G-10 on the front scale with a stonewashed bronze titanium frame on the reverse, creating a bold and tactical aesthetic that perfectly matches the knife’s hard-use DNA. The textured G-10 offers a secure, confident grip in all conditions, while the titanium framelock provides exceptional strength and lockup security. The stonewashed bronze finish adds character and depth, giving the knife a battle-worn appearance that only gets better with use.
At 8.25 inches overall and 4.75 inches closed, the XM-18 3.5 strikes an ideal balance between substantial capability and practical carry. It feels robust without being cumbersome, making it equally suited for everyday carry or dedicated use. The tip-down pocket clip ensures secure carry and quick accessibility, while Hinderer’s legendary build quality shines through in every detail, from the smooth action to the precision fit and finish.
This is more than just a folding knife—it’s a purpose-built tool crafted with premium materials and unmistakable Hinderer attitude. The XM-18 3.5 Bowie Stonewashed OD Green Bronze Titanium is ready to earn its place as a trusted companion for years to come.
