I like the purple translucent. Would also like a ruby red or bright orange translucent.

I really like the size and feel of my Delica 4, although it's VG-10. It's about a perfect EDC. Only problem is I cannot seem to get a particularly sharp edge on it, even with the SharpMaker. Any suggestions.

The wire pocket clip is an excellent design. Regular clips even on my Delica, as well as my CS knives, tend to scratch my car door when trying to slip in when in a tight parking space. The wire clip doesn't do that. Just another plus for this design.

I had plans last week to visit the Spyderco factory in Golden. I had all kinds of plans, meet Sal, smooze a bit, buy some blades, maybe another Manix, etc. HA! I was east bound on the I-70 from the western slope and an accident in Glenwood Canyon closed down the entire interstate for hours. I had to...

I have a Delica 4 with the saber grind. Great light duty knife. Also have an Endura on the way. Just another addiction to cope with. Tragic really. :rolleyes:

New Blue Mannix2 LWT

I finally received my translucent blue Mannix2 last week, and what a great knife. Feel in the hand is great, the volcano grips just plain work, the edge is razor sharp, the wire clip easily slides in and out of the pocket and the lightweight makes it disappear for EDC. The lock up is every bit as so...

Just Ordered New Knives

I'm trying to increase my knife collection, and ordered a purple Endura 4 FFG, and a Manix ultra lightweight blue. I can't wait, especially on the Manix. That is one great looking knife. In fact, I may make it a point to get one of each of the Manix line. Wish they'd make some more Sprint versions. ...

First post here. I've got a Delica 4 black with saber grind for my EDC. I've got a number of Cold Steel folders with the triad lock (Voyager Lg, Recon1, Lawman) and I'm really impressed with them, but I'm looking for a Spyderco heavy duty folder, probably like the Manix2. Any suggestions?
