Description
The Hinderer XM-18 3.5 DLT Exclusive Fullered Spear Two-Tone Folding Knife is one of the most sought-after configurations within the XM-18 lineup. The original text has been normalized from “XM18” to XM-18, and the model is identified as a DLT Exclusive Fullered Spear. With an overall length of approximately 21 cm, this piece combines the legendary full-size XM-18 platform with one of Hinderer’s most visually desirable blade profiles.
The blade is made from CPM-20CV steel and features a Fullered Spear Point profile with a refined Two-Tone finish. The dual fuller grooves add strong dimensional depth and instantly recognizable visual appeal, while the spear point geometry keeps the blade clean, balanced, and highly functional for EDC use.

The handle is fitted with a military green G10 scale paired with a titanium frame lock structure. This combination keeps the knife rugged, practical, and easy to carry, while the OD green tone gives it a classic field-use look. The integrated frame lock provides strong lockup, and the overall construction retains the dependable hard-use feel that made the XM-18 platform so popular among collectors and users.
This knife uses Hinderer’s Tri-Way pivot system, giving the user the option to tune the action with bearings, phosphor bronze washers, or Teflon washers depending on preference. Public XM-18 Fullered Spear listings also document the 3.5-inch Fullered Spear configuration with dual thumb studs, fullers, and extra Tri-Way pivot hardware, confirming this as one of the premium enthusiast-focused XM-18 builds. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
