The Hinderer XM-18 3.5 Spearpoint is a rugged, dependable folding knife designed by Rick Hinderer for users who expect serious performance from their everyday gear. Combining a proven XM-18 platform with premium MagnaCut steel, durable G10, and Hinderer’s versatile Tri-Way Pivot System, this folder is built to handle demanding cutting tasks while remaining practical for everyday carry.
The 3.50-inch Spearpoint blade is crafted from premium MagnaCut steel, offering an impressive balance of toughness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance. Its Spearpoint profile provides a strong, capable point while maintaining plenty of useful cutting edge for everyday chores. The Stonewash finish gives the blade a rugged appearance and helps conceal the scratches and marks that naturally come with regular use. With a substantial 0.165-inch blade thickness, it’s built with durability in mind.
The 4.75-inch handle features blue G10 scales that provide a secure, confident grip and add a distinctive look to the knife. G10 is well suited for hard use thanks to its strength, stability, and resistance to moisture. The Stonewash-finished lockside complements the blue scales while maintaining the XM-18’s rugged aesthetic. At 0.540 inches thick overall, the handle feels substantial in hand without becoming unnecessarily bulky.
Hinderer’s Tri-Way Pivot System adds another level of versatility to the XM-18. The pivot can be configured with bearings, phosphor bronze washers, or nylon washers, allowing you to tailor the knife’s action to your preferred feel and intended use. It’s a practical feature that gives you more control over how your folder performs and carries over time.
Measuring 8.25 inches overall and weighing 5.6 ounces, the XM-18 3.5 Spearpoint offers a substantial yet manageable platform for everyday carry. It’s ready for opening packages, cutting cordage, preparing camp gear, handling workshop chores, and tackling the countless cutting jobs that come up throughout the day.
