The Hinderer XM-18 3.5 Spearpoint Tri-Way Folder brings Rick Hinderer’s rugged, purpose-driven design to a premium folding knife with a distinctive translucent green G10 handle. Combined with a Working Finish MagnaCut blade and Working Finish titanium lockside, this XM-18 offers a tough, cohesive appearance backed by premium materials and substantial construction.
The 3.50-inch spearpoint blade is crafted from MagnaCut stainless steel, providing an excellent balance of toughness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance. The spearpoint profile delivers a strong, versatile point while retaining plenty of useful cutting edge for everyday chores. Its Working Finish gives the blade a rugged, utilitarian appearance and helps conceal the marks that naturally develop through regular use.
The 4.75-inch handle features translucent green G10 scales paired with a Working Finish titanium lockside. The translucent green G10 gives this XM-18 a distinctive appearance while providing a secure, textured grip. Its unique coloring adds visual character without taking away from the knife’s rugged, functional design. The Working Finish titanium lockside complements the blade with a cohesive, work-ready look while contributing to the folder’s solid construction.
The blade and lockside both measure 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 in hand without becoming unnecessarily bulky. At 8.25 inches overall and weighing 5.6 ounces, it balances robust construction with a practical size for everyday carry.
Hinderer’s Tri-Way pivot system adds another level of versatility to this XM-18. Multiple bearing configurations allow you to adjust the knife’s action to your preferred setup, giving you greater control over the feel and operation of the pivot. It’s a practical, user-focused feature that complements the XM-18’s substantial construction.
Whether it’s part of your everyday rotation, riding along in your gear, or taking its place in a premium collection, the XM-18 3.5 Spearpoint Tri-Way is ready to make itself useful. The translucent green G10 handle gives it plenty of personality, while the Working Finish blade and titanium lockside maintain its rugged, refined character.
With premium MagnaCut steel, durable G10, a substantial build, and an adjustable Tri-Way pivot system, this Rick Hinderer-designed folder delivers the practical versatility and unmistakable character you’d expect from the XM-18 platform.
