The Hinderer XM-18 3.5 Spearpoint is a rugged, dependable folding knife designed by Rick Hinderer for users who demand strength, practical performance, and premium materials from their everyday gear. With its proven XM-18 platform, substantial construction, and versatile Tri-Way Pivot System, this folder is ready for demanding everyday carry and outdoor use.
Its 3.50-inch Spearpoint blade is crafted from premium MagnaCut steel, giving you an excellent balance of toughness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance. The Spearpoint profile offers a strong, functional point while maintaining a capable cutting edge for everyday tasks. A Stonewash finish gives the blade a rugged appearance and helps hide the scratches and wear that naturally come with regular use. At 0.165 inches thick, the blade has the substantial construction you’d expect from a Hinderer folder.
The 4.75-inch handle features durable black G10 scales paired with a titanium Stonewash-finished lockside. G10 provides a secure, textured grip that holds up well to demanding use, while the 0.540-inch overall handle thickness gives the XM-18 a solid feel in hand without making it unnecessarily cumbersome to carry. The lockside and 0.050-inch liner are built to complement the knife's robust construction.
The XM-18 3.5 Spearpoint also features Hinderer’s Tri-Way Pivot System, giving you the flexibility to configure the pivot with bearings, phosphor bronze washers, or nylon washers. This lets you tune the knife's action to suit your preferred feel and intended use. It’s a practical system that adds versatility to an already well-established design.
With an 8.25-inch overall length and a weight of 5.6 ounces, the XM-18 3.5 strikes a practical balance between substantial construction and everyday carry. From opening boxes and cutting cordage to handling chores around camp, the shop, or the jobsite, this folder is built to be used.
Designed by Rick Hinderer, the XM-18 3.5 Spearpoint brings together premium MagnaCut steel, black G10, a rugged Stonewash finish, and proven Hinderer engineering in one capable folding knife.
