Hinderer Knives XM-18 3″ Orange Harpoon Tanto Working Finish Flipper

The Hinderer Knives XM-18 3″ Gen IV Working Finish Harpoon Tanto with Orange 3D textured G10 is a precision-crafted hard-use tactical folder in an EDC friendly package. The S35VN blade sports a Tanto grind with harpoon swedge. This is a tough grind that delivers excellent cutting performance. As the smallest model in the Hinderer XM family, the XM-18 3″ was designed for ease of carry while still retaining a hard use construction. Ease of opening and closing one-handed combined with a reliable lock system were targets that have been achieved with the XM-18.

Brand new directly from the Hinderer Ranch.

The Blade:  The three inch blade is made from CPM S35VN and can be opened via the integral flipper or dual thumb studs/blade stops. Rick’s own 17-4PH state-of-the-art pivot system creates silky smooth operation; detent is dialed in for solid flipper deployment. The blade has a Hinderer working finish that has been bead-blasted/tumbled for a field proven appearance.  

The Handle:  Full titanium frame lock and liner have a subdued working finish for a rugged look. Hardware and standoffs create one solid package while 3D texturing on the G-10 scale coupled with jimping all around create a solid grip. There is also a bit of a choil to choke up on the blade for more detailed cutting tasks as well. This Hinderer XM-18 includes the famous Hinderer Lockbar Stabilizer and two-position titanium clip and insert for tip up or down right hand carry.

As with all Hinderer Knives, the XM-18 is completely customizable with custom finishing options in the following hardware: clips, standoffs, lockbar stabilizers, pivot and handle screws and handle nuts.
