Hinderer XM-18 Skinny Slicer Orange - Battle Bronze 3.5in Plain Working Drop Point KXM35SKSLTWWFOR

The Hinderer XM-18 Skinny Slicer Working Finish Orange & Battle Bronze is a bold, hardworking folding knife built for those who demand peak performance wrapped in standout style. Designed by Rick Hinderer and proudly made in the USA, this knife combines innovative features, premium materials, and rugged good looks into a package that's ready for everyday carry and tough enough for whatever challenges come your way.

At the heart of this powerhouse is a 3.5” CPM MagnaCut stainless steel blade, precision crafted with a versatile drop point profile. MagnaCut brings exceptional edge retention, high toughness, and incredible corrosion resistance together in one modern super steel. The Working Finish gives the blade a tough, broken-in appearance while also helping to mask wear from real-world use. Whether you're slicing through heavy material or handling finer cutting tasks, the XM-18 delivers smooth, dependable performance.

Opening the blade is fast and reliable with two options at your fingertips: a blade flipper for quick, decisive action or ambidextrous thumb studs for a more controlled deployment. Thanks to Hinderer's Tri-Way Pivot System, you can tailor the knife’s action to your personal preference. Swap between buttery-smooth ball bearings, ultra-durable phosphor bronze washers, or slick Teflon washers depending on your needs and environment. It's this level of customizability that makes the XM-18 a favorite among serious users.

The handle on this Skinny Slicer version is both functional and eye-catching. The front scale is bright orange G-10, offering a secure, confident grip with just the right amount of texture, while the rear handle is crafted from Battle Bronze finished stainless steel, adding a rugged and stylish contrast. The combination of orange and bronze doesn’t just turn heads—it’s a practical pairing designed for visibility and resilience.

A robust framelock ensures the blade stays locked open during use, offering unbeatable strength when you need it most. At 4.75” closed and 8.25” overall with a blade thickness of .14”, the XM-18 Skinny Slicer maintains a slim, pocket-friendly profile while delivering full-size cutting power. Carry options are made simple and secure with a tip-down pocket clip, and a lanyard hole gives you additional ways to personalize your setup for quick access or added flair.

Built with precision and pride, the Hinderer XM-18 Skinny Slicer Working Finish Orange & Battle Bronze stands as a true testament to American craftsmanship. It’s more than just a knife—it’s a tool designed to perform, built to last, and crafted to be carried with pride every day.
