Anyone know?

Do these orange Putman scales collect dirty easy? If so, are they easy to clean or do they stay dirty?

Just something I was wondering as I just did 3 knives with these.

Need to order one of these.

Might be ordering some Neon Green scales from Putman soon.

Love it. Are those Putman scales? How was the press-fit on the lanyard tube?

Yes and the lanyard tube was very tight. I filed the XL ones a little bit to make them easier to get on.

Now I have twins ! :eek:

Still thinking about purchasing the regular version but some sprint runs would be nice also.

The orange on the stain Manix 2 is also HOT !

Thinking about also putting these on my black Manix 2 XL. :confused:

How's the back lock Manix 2?

I did this to my black Manix 2. Hot or Not? :rolleyes:

I agree with the above. They do break in and trying to adjust anything before the knife is broken in can possibly cause more work in the long run. When I take a new knife out of the box the first thing I do is clean the blade and bearing surfaces ( not the bearings on a flipper but the smooth part ...

Does a new Manix 2 fresh out of the box need oil or is it good to go?

I'm no expert on knives but the action seems a little stiff on this one. Will it loosen up over time or does it need to be taken apart and oiled?

I'm a noob so don't beat me up too bad. :rolleyes:

Is a KP date 2016 or 2017?

2016. So there's a higher chance red Loctite.

This scares me. :eek: When did they stop using red loctite?

Is it safe to say that Spyderco knives that are shipped and sold by Amazon will be 100% legit?
Just wondering. :rolleyes:

When did they stop using the red loctite? The knife I have has a date code of KP.

Want to put some different scales on my Manix 2 but I'm worried about stripping the screws with all the red loctite Spyderco is using.

Anyone have any solid tips how to safely remove these screws? I'v heard soldering iron, hair dryer ETC and just don't know.

Thank for any help you can provide.
