Auxiliary Manufacturing Hensley Wendigo- Blue GripX - Darkwash S35VN Blade

S35VN Fixed Blade with Stingray Wrap Handles

The Hensley Handmade collab Wendigo is a compact fixed blade from Auxiliary Manufacturing, built for everyday carry and close-in utility work. Its small footprint and premium materials make it a strong choice for anyone who wants a dedicated hard-use blade that still carries easily in a pocket or around the neck.

Blade

The 3.125" blade is made from S35VN stainless steel finished in a dark wash. S35VN is a premium powder metallurgy steel that balances edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance better than most traditional stainless steels, and the darkwash finish adds a layer of protection while muting reflections. At 0.162" thick, the blade stays sturdy for detail and utility cutting.

Handle

The handle is wrapped in stingray, a dense natural material with a distinct textured surface that provides grip even when wet. It pairs a tactile, rugged feel with a one-of-a-kind look since no two stingray wraps are identical. Overall weight comes in at 4.27oz, keeping the knife light enough for all-day carry.

Carry

The Wendigo ships with a black Kydex sheath that offers solid retention and a low-profile carry option, whether on a belt, inside the waistband, or around the neck. As a fixed blade, there is no lock to engage - the sheath itself secures the blade until you draw it.

Made in the USA.
