Hinderer XM-24 4"
The Hinderer XM-24 is the big brother of the XM series, first released in 2008 when Rick Hinderer scaled the XM-18 up to a 4 inch blade. With a 5.625 inch handle that fills large and gloved hands, it is the hardest working folder among Rick Hinderer knives, built in the USA for jobs a pocket knife usually can't take.
XM-24 vs XM-18 3.5
The XM-24 runs 9.125 inches open with a 4 inch blade on thick 0.185 inch stock, against the XM-18 3.5 with its 3.5 inch blade and 4.75 inch handle. At 7.8 ounces it carries noticeably heavier, but that mass and the extra handle length are the point: a full grip with room to spare, more leverage for hard cuts, and a blade that handles camp and field work as easily as boxes.
XM-24 Harpoon Spanto, Spear, and Slicer Blades
The harpoon spanto in CPM S45VN leads the lineup, pairing a reinforced tip with a clipped harpoon spine for piercing strength. The swedged spear runs CPM 20CV for maximum edge life, and the slicer, also in S45VN, trades some tip strength for a thin, clean cutting edge. Our comparison of every major knife steel shows how S45VN and 20CV differ.
XM-24 Skinny Vintage Series Bowie
For something different, the Skinny Vintage Series XM-24 swaps stainless for a parkerized 1095 carbon steel bowie on thinner 0.165 inch stock with a smooth walnut scale. Carbon steel takes a keen edge and sharpens fast, and it builds a patina with use, so give it a wipe and a light coat of oil after wet work to keep rust away.
XM-24 Frame Lock, Tri-Way Pivot, and Hardware
The standard XM-24 is a titanium frame lock with a steel lockbar insert, the Hinderer Lockbar Stabilizer, and a G-10 scale over a titanium liner on the Tri-Way Pivot, which runs ball bearings or swaps to bronze or Teflon washers. The titanium clip carries right hand, tip up or tip down. Our XM-24 hardware fits this frame, and the full range of Hinderer parts and accessories covers everything else.
