Wixco Fenix Linerlock Folding Knife DLC N690/Orange and Black Aluminum WX21-B

The Wixco Fenix WX21-B folding knife delivers bold styling and dependable cutting performance in a rugged everyday carry design. Its 3.74” tanto blade is crafted from N690 stainless steel, a premium alloy well known for excellent corrosion resistance, toughness, and strong edge retention. The angular tanto profile provides outstanding piercing strength and reinforced tip durability, while the black DLC (diamond-like carbon) coating adds a sleek tactical appearance and increases surface hardness to better resist wear and abrasion.

Deployment is fast, clean, and satisfying. The Fenix uses a front flipper paired with a ball bearing pivot assembly, allowing the blade to glide open with a smooth, natural motion. A quick roll of the finger sends the blade snapping into place where it locks securely with a reliable linerlock. The action feels crisp and controlled, giving the knife the kind of responsive feel you expect from a well-built manual folder.

The handle gives the WX21-B a look that’s both aggressive and distinctive. A textured anodized orange aluminum front scale pairs with a textured anodized black aluminum rear scale, creating a striking two-tone design that stands out while remaining highly functional. The aluminum construction keeps weight down without sacrificing strength, and the textured surfaces provide a confident grip during extended use. A durable backspacer reinforces the handle while incorporating a lanyard slot for additional carry options.

An ambidextrous stainless steel pocket clip keeps the knife secure and ready whether carried left or right-handed. Measuring 4.53” closed and weighing just 3.53 ounces, the Wixco Fenix offers a comfortable carry profile while maintaining the blade length and strength needed for real work.
