No backorders. No drop shipping. If you can add it to your cart, it is in stock and ready to ship!
Finally, the XM-18 goes full-auto! That's right, the iconic Hinderer XM-18 - long known for its flipper tab deployment - trades in the tab for a button. And with a press of that button, the blade deploys lightning fast with no nonsense. But don't fear, the XM lineage is still here. The Auto has the same ergonomic profile, melting into your hand and ready for real work. The full titanium frame features grippy XM texturing on both sides as well as strategic jimping to keep your hand in place. The XM-18 Auto shares some parts commonality with the standard XM-18 so you can customize your knife (note: not all parts are the same, and be SUPER careful disassembling an automatic knife - they can be tricky to put together, and some of those parts might go flying when you crack it open - so don't head into that task lightly. The superb Hinderer pocket clip is set up for tip-up carry and can be swapped for a different clip or a filler tab. Some new tech in the proven design levels up the XM series for all you auto fans out there!
