The Hinderer XM-18 3.5 Spearpoint Tri-Way Folder brings Rick Hinderer’s rugged design philosophy to a premium folding knife with a bold orange G10 handle and Battle Black titanium lockside. Finished with a Working Finish MagnaCut blade, this XM-18 combines distinctive styling with a tough, purpose-driven build that’s ready for everyday use.
The 3.50-inch spearpoint blade is crafted from MagnaCut stainless steel, giving you an impressive balance of toughness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance. The spearpoint profile offers a strong, versatile tip while maintaining plenty of useful cutting edge for everyday chores. Its Working Finish provides a rugged, utilitarian appearance and helps conceal the scratches and marks that naturally develop through regular use.
The 4.75-inch handle pairs durable orange G10 with a Battle Black titanium lockside. The vibrant orange G10 adds a bold visual contrast while providing a secure, textured grip in hand. It also makes the knife easy to spot among your gear. The Battle Black titanium lockside gives the XM-18 a dark, rugged appearance that complements the bright handle and contributes to its solid construction.
The lockside measures 0.165 inches thick, while the liner measures 0.050 inches thick. With an overall handle thickness of 0.540 inches, the XM-18 has a substantial feel without becoming unnecessarily bulky. At 8.25 inches overall and weighing 5.6 ounces, it balances a robust construction with a practical size for everyday carry.
Hinderer’s Tri-Way pivot system adds another layer of versatility to the XM-18. Multiple bearing configurations let you adjust the knife’s action to suit your preferred setup, giving you more control over the feel and operation of the pivot. It’s a thoughtful feature that complements the XM-18’s user-focused design.
From the high-performance MagnaCut blade to the durable G10 handle and stonewashed-style Battle Black titanium lockside, this XM-18 is equipped for serious everyday cutting tasks. The orange handle gives it plenty of personality, while the dark hardware and Working Finish blade keep its overall appearance rugged and refined.
Whether you’re adding a new Hinderer to your collection or looking for a dependable folder for your everyday rotation, the XM-18 3.5 Spearpoint Tri-Way delivers premium materials, practical versatility, and unmistakable Rick Hinderer design in one capable package.
