The WIXCO Wortex WX16-C is designed to deliver high-value performance in a compact everyday carry format. At its core is a 14C28N stainless steel blade, known for its excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and ease of sharpening. The blade is finished in a stonewashed/black-PVD style and measures approximately 3.10″ for agile use without limiting utility.
The handle is paired with durable shredded carbon fiber scales, giving the knife a lightweight feel and rugged texture for grip confidence. Despite its compact size, with a closed length around 4″ and overall length roughly 7.10″, it manages to stay pocket-friendly while delivering the kind of cutting power you’d expect from a larger folder.
A smooth ball-bearing pivot system ensures consistent deployment, while the liner-lock mechanism provides solid lock-up in hand. The deep-carry pocket clip and stainless steel hardware round out the package, making the Wortex a compelling choice for users who want serious build and everyday versatility at a moderate price point.
