The Hinderer XM-18 3.5 Spearpoint Tri-Way Folder combines Rick Hinderer’s rugged, purpose-driven design with a distinctive translucent green G-10 handle, Working Finish titanium frame, and stonewashed MagnaCut blade. It’s a premium folding knife that balances bold style with the solid construction and versatile performance expected from the XM-18 platform.
The 3.50-inch spearpoint blade is made from MagnaCut, a premium stainless steel known for its impressive combination of toughness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance. The spearpoint profile provides a strong, versatile cutting edge that’s well suited to everyday utility, outdoor chores, and general cutting tasks. Its stonewashed finish gives the blade a subdued, rugged appearance while helping conceal the scratches and wear that naturally come with regular use.
The 4.75-inch translucent green G-10 handle gives this XM-18 a distinctive look while maintaining the durability and secure grip expected from a hard-working folder. The translucent construction adds visual depth to the handle, allowing the material to stand out without becoming overly flashy. G-10 is lightweight, rigid, and resistant to moisture, making it well suited to everyday carry and outdoor use.
The titanium lockside features Hinderer’s Working Finish, providing a rugged, understated surface that pairs naturally with the stonewashed blade and translucent green handle. The 0.165-inch lockside and 0.050-inch liner contribute to the knife’s substantial construction, while the 0.540-inch overall handle thickness provides a solid feel in the hand.
Hinderer’s Tri-Way Pivot System gives this XM-18 added versatility by allowing the pivot to be configured with different bearing options. This lets you tune the knife’s action to your preferred feel, adding adjustability to an already well-engineered folding knife.
Measuring 8.25 inches overall and weighing 5.6 ounces, the XM-18 3.5 offers a substantial yet practical size for everyday carry. The combination of translucent green G-10, Working Finish titanium, and a stonewashed blade gives it a rugged appearance with a distinctive visual edge.
Whether you’re carrying it as part of your daily rotation, adding it to an outdoor gear setup, or expanding a premium knife collection, this XM-18 3.5 delivers the dependable materials, versatile pivot system, and unmistakable character associated with Rick Hinderer’s designs.
