The Hinderer XM-18 3.5 delivers hard-use performance in a rugged folding knife designed by master knifemaker Rick Hinderer. Proven construction, premium materials, and a purpose-driven design give this American-made folder the strength and versatility to handle everyday cutting tasks and demanding utility work.
The 3.5-inch Skinner blade is crafted from S45VN stainless steel and finished in a rugged stonewash. Its curved cutting edge is designed for controlled slicing and draw cuts, making it particularly well suited to outdoor and utility applications. A blade flipper provides quick, intuitive deployment, while the sturdy frame lock keeps the blade securely in place during use.
The front handle features durable black G-10 with a textured surface that provides a confident grip. The rear handle is constructed from stonewash titanium, delivering a strong, lightweight foundation with a rugged finish that complements the blade. A matching stonewash titanium pocket clip completes the design and provides secure, convenient pocket carry.
Measuring 4.75 inches closed and weighing 5.6 ounces, the XM-18 3.5 has a substantial feel without becoming unwieldy. Its compact closed profile makes it practical for everyday carry, while its robust construction gives it the presence and capability expected from a hard-use Hinderer.
Designed by Rick Hinderer and proudly made in the USA, this XM-18 3.5 reflects a commitment to practical design, rugged construction, and premium materials. It’s a serious folding knife built to be carried, used, and relied upon.
