The Hinderer XM-18 3.5 Spearpoint Tri-Way Folder combines Rick Hinderer’s proven design with premium materials and a rugged, understated finish. This version features a coyote G-10 handle paired with a Working Finish titanium lockside and a stonewashed MagnaCut blade, giving it a distinctive look that’s ready for serious everyday use.
The 3.50-inch spearpoint blade is crafted from MagnaCut, a premium stainless steel known for its excellent balance of toughness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance. Its spearpoint grind provides a strong, versatile cutting profile suited to a wide range of everyday tasks. The stonewashed finish adds a subdued appearance while helping conceal the marks that naturally come with regular use, making this XM-18 just as practical as it is refined.
The coyote G-10 handle delivers a warm, earthy color and a secure, durable grip. G-10 is lightweight, rigid, and well suited to demanding carry, while the 4.75-inch handle provides ample room for a confident grip. Measuring 0.540 inches thick overall, the handle maintains a solid feel without making the knife unnecessarily bulky. The 0.165-inch lockside and 0.050-inch liner contribute to the XM-18’s robust construction.
A titanium lockside finished in Hinderer’s Working Finish complements the coyote G-10 with a rugged, utilitarian look. The Working Finish gives the titanium a subdued appearance that pairs naturally with the stonewashed blade, creating a cohesive combination of textures and finishes.
The XM-18’s Tri-Way Pivot System gives you the flexibility to configure the pivot with different bearing options, allowing you to tune the action to your preferred feel. This versatility is paired with the dependable construction and thoughtful engineering that have made the XM-18 a staple in the Hinderer lineup.
At 8.25 inches overall and weighing 5.6 ounces, this XM-18 3.5 offers a substantial cutting tool while remaining practical for everyday carry. From opening packages and handling camp chores to adding a premium folder to your collection, the coyote G-10 XM-18 delivers the materials, performance, and rugged character expected from a Rick Hinderer design.
