The McNees 3.25 Little Dixon Frag Stonewash Atomic Magnacut brings rugged custom styling and precision American craftsmanship to a compact everyday carry. Measuring 7.625 inches overall with a 3.25-inch blade, the Little Dixon stays close to the dimensions of the original Dixon custom design while incorporating the proven features of its larger counterpart. It’s a purpose-built folder that combines premium materials, precision machining, and practical performance in a size that's easy to carry every day.
The 3.25-inch CPM MagnaCut blade is hollow ground in-house at McNees Knives and heat treated to an impressive HRC 63-64. This premium blade steel offers an excellent balance of toughness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance, giving the Little Dixon the versatility needed for everyday cutting chores. The High Performance Hollow Grind is another defining feature carried over from the larger Dixon design, providing an efficient cutting profile while maintaining the strength needed for dependable use.
The titanium handle features a rugged Stonewash Atomic finish paired with aggressive Frag milling. McNees machines the pattern into both the show side and the lock side, allowing the precision work to stand out from every angle. The detailed Frag pattern adds texture and visual depth to the titanium, while the Stonewash Atomic treatment gives the handle a hard-wearing appearance that complements the knife's purpose-driven design. The result is a folder that looks right at home in a serious EDC rotation.
A titanium frame lock provides a solid and dependable locking mechanism, while titanium hardware complements the handle and keeps the premium construction consistent throughout the knife. Manual opening gives the user direct control over blade deployment, keeping the operation straightforward and reliable. The combination of compact dimensions and robust construction makes the Little Dixon an excellent choice for daily carry without sacrificing capability.
