Description
The Hinderer XM-18 3.5 Ripple Titanium Skinny Slicer is a premium variation of the legendary XM-18 platform, combining the slimmer Skinny Slicer blade profile with a full titanium Ripple texture handle design. This model delivers the iconic Hinderer strength and reliability while adding a refined visual and tactile experience, making it an outstanding choice for high-end EDC collectors.
With an overall length of approximately 21 cm, this XM-18 3.5 features a MagnaCut stonewashed Skinny Slicer blade.

MagnaCut steel provides an exceptional balance of toughness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance, making it ideal for daily carry use.
The highlight of this edition is the full titanium handle with a unique Ripple texture pattern. The stonewashed copper-tone Ripple titanium scale creates a distinctive flowing surface texture, providing both enhanced grip and a premium handcrafted appearance. The combination of titanium machining and wave-like patterns gives this XM-18 a unique blend of modern industrial design and artistic craftsmanship.
Equipped with Hinderer’s legendary Tri-Way Pivot System Gen 6, this knife allows users to customize the action with bearings, phosphor bronze washers, or nylon washers. The integrated frame lock construction ensures excellent strength and reliability while maintaining the refined mechanical feel that Hinderer collectors appreciate.
The XM-18 3.5 Ripple Titanium Skinny Slicer perfectly combines premium materials, advanced machining, and practical EDC performance.
