The Hinderer XM-18 3.5 Bowie Stonewashed Gray Titanium OD Green is a purpose-built folding knife that delivers the kind of performance, toughness, and precision that’s made Rick Hinderer designs legendary among serious knife users. Built for those who demand reliability in the field, on the job, or in everyday carry rotation, this American-made folder combines premium materials with unmistakable styling and the kind of overbuilt confidence that’s become synonymous with the XM-18 platform.
At the heart of this knife is a 3.5-inch CPM 20CV stainless steel bowie blade with a rugged stonewash finish. Known for its exceptional edge retention, corrosion resistance, and wear resistance, CPM 20CV is a top-tier blade steel designed to handle hard use while maintaining a razor-sharp edge. The bowie profile offers an aggressive yet highly functional cutting shape, providing excellent slicing performance, piercing capability, and versatile utility across a wide range of cutting tasks. The stonewashed finish not only enhances the blade’s battle-ready appearance, but also helps conceal scratches and wear from regular use, keeping it looking sharp through years of service.
Deployment is quick, smooth, and dependable thanks to the blade flipper, allowing fast one-handed opening whenever speed matters. Once open, the blade locks firmly into place with Hinderer’s proven framelock design, delivering outstanding strength and confidence under pressure. This is the kind of lockup that inspires trust, whether you're handling precision cuts or putting the knife to demanding work.
The handle pairs OD green G-10 on the front scale with a gray titanium frame on the reverse, creating a bold, tactical aesthetic that balances rugged field utility with refined craftsmanship. The textured G-10 provides excellent grip and control in all conditions, while the titanium lock side adds lightweight strength and long-term durability. This combination gives the XM-18 a solid, reassuring feel in hand without becoming unnecessarily bulky.
Measuring 8.25 inches overall and 4.75 inches closed, the XM-18 3.5 strikes an ideal balance between carry convenience and full-size capability. The tip-down pocket clip ensures secure carry and easy access, making it ready whenever duty calls.
Built with precision engineering and uncompromising materials, the Hinderer XM-18 3.5 Bowie Stonewashed Gray Titanium OD Green is more than just a folding knife—it’s a hard-use tool built to perform when it counts.
