Description
The Hinderer XM-18 3.25 BPU #1370 Spear Point is the newest addition to the legendary XM-18 family from Rick Hinderer Knives. Released in 2026, the XM-18 3.25″ introduces a new size option that perfectly balances portability and performance, positioned between the classic XM-18 3.5″ and the compact XM-18 3″. This balanced size makes it an excellent choice for premium everyday carry.
With an overall length of approximately 19 cm, this model features a S45VN Spear Point blade with BPU (Battlefield Pick Up) finish. The Spear Point blade profile provides an excellent combination of piercing capability, cutting performance, and classic tactical aesthetics.

The handle features a durable military green G10 scale combined with Hinderer’s proven titanium integral frame lock. The XM-18 3.25″ maintains the same rugged engineering philosophy as larger XM-18 models while offering a more compact and comfortable carry experience for daily use.
Equipped with Hinderer’s 6th Generation Tri-Way Pivot System, this knife allows users to customize the action with bearings, phosphor bronze washers, or nylon washers. This modular system provides smooth operation and the reliability expected from Hinderer’s premium folding knives.
The XM-18 3.25 BPU #1370 Spear Point represents an important evolution of the XM-18 platform. Its size, materials, and design create an ideal balance between the XM-18 3.5″ and XM-18 3″, making it one of the most practical and versatile choices for collectors and serious EDC enthusiasts.
