Hinderer XM-18 3.5" Bowie Battle Black 20CV Coyote G10 Tri-Way Flipper 1122

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 version comes with a Battle Black CPM-20CV Bowie blade, matching titanium frame and Coyote tan G10 scale.

Brand new directly from the Hinderer Knives, USA.

Gen 6 features: hardened steel lock face insert and Tri-Way Pivot detailed below.

Blade: Riding on the installed Tri-Way pivot (see below) bearings, the 3.5 inch Bowie blade opens fast and smooth via the integral flipper or dual thumb studs/blade stops. Premium CPM-20CV stainless steel delivers excellent performance with a durable saber grind and pronounced clip point swedge. A full forward choil allows for excellent control paired with spine jimping for traction. Tumbled "Battle Black" PVD hides wear and is discreetly non-reflective.

Handle: Full titanium frame lock and liner are matching Battle Black for a rugged, wear hiding look with a stealthy style. Satin Hardware and standoffs create one solid package while a 3D textured G10 scale and strategically placed jimping provide a solid grip. Additional features include the Hinderer LockBar Stabilizer, titanium clip insert and customizable modular design.

Carries via a reversible, right hand only, titanium pocket clip.

Tri-Way Pivot: An innovative design from Hinderer, the Tri-Way pivot has milled pockets in the blade and frame allowing for the use of ball bearing pivot washers (installed). Utilizing steel spacers to fill those pockets, you can also use nylon or bronze washers (included) to customize the action.

CPM 20CV: CPM 20CV is a highly wear-resistant, powder metallurgy stainless steel, analogous to Bohler M390 and CTS-204P, and offers some of the best corrosion resistance and wear resistance in combination with a relative ease of sharpening. These properties along with a working hardness in the low 60s HRC make 20CV a prime choice among custom and production makers.
