The Hinderer XM-18 3.5 Framelock Flipper delivers the rugged durability and premium performance that have made Rick Hinderer’s designs legendary among serious knife users. Built for hard work and engineered to perform under pressure, this American-made folder combines top-tier materials with a refined action that feels every bit as impressive as it looks. From demanding daily carry to heavy-duty cutting tasks, the XM-18 3.5 is designed to be used, trusted, and carried for years.

This version features a 3.5” skinny slicer blade crafted from MagnaCut stainless tool steel, offering an outstanding balance of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. The slimmer blade geometry gives it exceptional slicing performance while still maintaining the strength expected from an XM-18. Finished in Hinderer’s rugged Battle Black Finish, the blade hides wear from real-world use while adding a battle-tested appearance. Fast deployment comes from the responsive blade flipper and ambidextrous thumb studs, while the renowned Tri-Way pivot system allows you to fine-tune the action to your preference.

The handle pairs textured flat dark earth G-10 on the front with a Battle Black titanium rear handle for a bold, hard-use look and rock-solid durability. The titanium framelock provides secure, dependable lockup, while the titanium pocket clip and integrated lanyard hole offer versatile carry options. Measuring 4.75” closed and weighing 5.6 ounces, this XM-18 carries with authority while remaining comfortable in hand.
