Hinderer XM-18 3.5″ Spear Point 20CV Coyote G10 Battle Black DLC Tri-Way Flipper 1274

The Hinderer Knives XM-18 3.5” is a precision-crafted hard-use tactical folder you can carry every day. It features an integral flipper tab and dual thumb studs for fast, easy operation in a mid-sized platform designed to fit most hands comfortably while handling nearly any task. Easy, one-hand operation and a reliable lock system are the foundation of the XM series. This spear point variant comes with a Battle Black DLC coated 20CV blade, matching Ti frame and Coyote tan G10 scale.

Brand new directly from the Hinderer Knives.

Blade: Riding on the installed Tri-Way pivot bearings, the spear point blade opens fast and smooth via the integral flipper or dual thumb studs. A high saber grind delivers balanced performance and solid durability whatever the task. A full forward choil allows for excellent control, paired with spine jimping for traction. The non-reflective Battle Black DLC  hides wear and is discreet in use.

Handle: Titanium frame and liner come in a matching tumbled “Battle Black” DLC finish that hides wear and is low profile in carry while the textured G10 scale and jimping provide a secure grip. Equipped with a steel lock face insert, the integral frame lock has solid lockup and smooth operation for safe use. The Hinderer LockBar Stabilizer, titanium clip insert and hardware make this a fully customizable modular design.

Carries via a right-hand titanium pocket clip.

Tri-Way Pivot: The Tri-Way pivot features milled pockets in the blade and frame comes with smooth operating ball bearing pivot washers installed. By utilizing included steel spacers to fill those pockets, users can get a more classic feel with either nylon or bronze washers also included.

CPM-20CV: CPM-20CV (analog to M390 and CTS-204P) is a premium powder metallurgy (PM) stainless steel with high level edge retention and corrosion resistance. Relatively easy to sharpen, the coarse microstructure gives this steel lower toughness.
