Hinderer XM-18 Skinny Slicer OD Green 3.5in Plain Working Finish Drop Point KXM35SKSLTWWFOD

The Hinderer XM-18 Skinny Slicer Working Finish OD Green G-10 is built for those who demand precision, durability, and dependability from their everyday carry folding knife. Rugged and refined in equal measure, this American-made manual folder delivers legendary Hinderer performance in a slimmed-down profile that’s perfect for real-world use. With top-tier materials, thoughtful engineering, and timeless styling, it’s the kind of knife that doesn’t just fit your lifestyle—it elevates it.

The 3.5” plain edge drop point blade is made from CPM MagnaCut stainless steel, one of the most exciting steels on the market today. Designed for maximum edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance, MagnaCut is purpose-built for high-performance blades. Whether you’re slicing, carving, or tackling unexpected tasks, this blade is up to the challenge. The .14” thickness provides the strength you need with just the right amount of slicing efficiency, and the drop point geometry offers excellent control and tip strength. Finished in Hinderer’s signature Working Finish, the blade has a rugged, wear-hiding look that’s made for action.

Deployment is fast, smooth, and intuitive thanks to the integrated blade flipper and Hinderer’s innovative Tri-Way pivot system. You get the freedom to customize your action—choose between Teflon, phosphor bronze, or ball bearing washers depending on your preference. The system is easy to maintain and offers performance that adapts to your needs, whether you're using the knife in the field, on the job, or around the house.

Lockup comes courtesy of a rock-solid titanium framelock, reinforced with Rick Hinderer’s patented Lockbar Stabilizer. This design prevents overtravel and ensures long-term reliability, even under heavy use. With every flick of the flipper and every lock-up click, you’ll feel the quality and precision that’s made Hinderer a trusted name among knife enthusiasts, first responders, and service members alike.

The OD Green G-10 front handle scale adds a tactical, earthy edge to this high-performance folder. It’s textured for a sure grip without being overly aggressive, while the stainless steel rear handle in Working Finish provides a sturdy backbone to the design. The full handle shape fills the hand comfortably, offering excellent ergonomics in a slim, pocket-friendly profile. Measuring 4.75” closed and 8.25” overall, this knife gives you a full-size cutting tool that disappears into your pocket until it’s needed. A tip-down pocket clip ensures secure carry, and the lanyard hole gives you options for further customization.

Proudly made in the USA, the XM-18 Skinny Slicer OD Green G-10 represents the pinnacle of American knife making. It’s a hard-use tool that looks as good as it performs and is ready to earn its place in your daily rotation.
