Used. No drop damage. No box.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a Rick Hinderer XM-18 non-flipper in the bowie grind, full titanium, battle blue finish, with a 3.5 inch CPM S45VN blade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFull Titanium, Non-Flipper\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost XM-18s you find are the flipper with a G10 scale. This is neither. Full titanium on both sides and no flipper tab, which means a clean silhouette and a thumb stud opening. It is the configuration people specifically hunt for and it turns up far less often than the standard build.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBattle Blue\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBattle blue is a Hinderer finish rather than a coating, a deep blue grey that shifts depending on the light and wears in rather than off. On full titanium it is the version that photographs nothing like it looks in the hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe Bowie Grind\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe bowie has a clipped, swedged tip with belly behind it. More piercing authority than a drop point and more cutting edge than a tanto, which is why Hinderer offers it and why people pick it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: Used\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: XM-18 Non-Flipper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlade Length: 3.5\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlade Steel: CPM S45VN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlade Style: Bowie\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandle Material: Full titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: Battle blue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeployment: Thumb stud\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes: Nothing.
