Hinderer XM-18 3.5in Non Flipper Bowie Working Finish OD Green G10

The Hinderer XM-18 3.5” Non Flipper Bowie Folding Knife is a testament to precision craftsmanship and rugged utility, making it a reliable companion for both everyday carry and demanding tasks. At the heart of this knife is the 3.5-inch CPM-S45VN stainless steel blade, known for its superior edge retention and corrosion resistance. The bowie-style blade, enhanced by a working finish, offers a combination of strength and aesthetic appeal, ready to handle anything from intricate cutting tasks to heavy-duty slicing.

This knife stands out with its manual opening system, featuring dual thumb studs that allow for quick and controlled deployment of the blade. Absent of a flipper tab, the XM-18 offers a streamlined profile that fits comfortably in your pocket while maintaining a sleek and tactical appearance. The Hinderer Tri-Way pivot system is one of the knife’s most distinctive features, allowing you to customize the action to your preference. Whether you prefer the smooth glide of bearings, the traditional feel of phosphor bronze washers, or the hybrid performance of Teflon washers, this system gives you the flexibility to fine-tune the knife’s operation to suit your needs.

The XM-18's construction is as solid as its performance. The framelock design, featuring a working finish titanium lockside, ensures a secure lock-up with every use, adding a layer of safety and confidence to the knife’s operation. The opposite side of the handle is equipped with a textured OD green G10 scale, offering a textured grip that remains comfortable and reliable, even in wet or slippery conditions. This combination of materials not only enhances the knife’s functionality but also gives it a distinctive appearance that stands out in any collection.

With a closed length of 4.75 inches, the XM-18 is compact enough for everyday carry while still offering a full 8.25 inches of overall length when open. Weighing in at 5.6 ounces, this knife strikes a balance between heft and portability, making it a practical choice for a wide range of tasks. The titanium pocket clip, which can be configured for tip-up or tip-down carry, adds to the knife’s versatility, ensuring it’s always ready for quick access.

The Hinderer XM-18 3.5” Non-Flipper Bowie Folding Knife is more than just a tool; it's a testament to precision engineering and thoughtful design. Whether you’re a collector, a professional, or an outdoor enthusiast, this knife delivers on all fronts.
