I'll put up my blast shield in advance of this idea.

If the CBBL won't work on a small one...

Compression lock?

*ducks*
I love the idea of a mini manix, but if we add in the compression lock aren't we coming close to a mini shaman?

actually... i want a mini in both.

Re: Manix2 XL vs Shaman

Comparing a manix 2 and a manix 2 XL is somewhat like comparing a para2 and a para3. The Manix Xl is great and it fits wonderfully in the hand. It's a little larger than a shaman. I say it's like comparing a para2 and para3 because of the extra handle length at the bottom, it's just enough to come a...

Re: Help with Para-military 2

They look good to me, Depending on the price (i know you said the blue m390 is 40$ more). I would go with the blue though. DLC blade, M390 steel is amazing, that blue and black look is beautiful. The digi camo S30V is no slouch either, you'll be happy either way you go if you decide to go with a par...

Re: Question for other (Fradon) Manix2 4V owners...

I love everything about mine... except one thing. I'm not huge on the saber grind. I've been spoiled with the FFGs and I just know it wont cut as smoothly as others. Even with the preimium steel. Not disappointed i bought it at all.

If you feel that slight burning in your pocket, don't worry. It's just your wallet having a panic attack. The people here are amazing, the self control is not :).

Re: What's your worst "bite"

Those Camp 10s are great. I don’t love the handle but it is a great value and chops well. My worst bites have not been Spydies. I cut the tip of my middle finger off at Boy Scout camp as a kid with an Old Timer Stockman. They stuck it back on with adhesive strips and it healed up ok. Looks good but...

What's your worst "bite"

We've all been bit by a knife. Sometimes it's minimal, sometimes it requires a trip to the specialists. Mine was early in my knife collecting career. I had a spring assisted knife and was flicking it open and closing it like i'm sure we're all guilty of. Trying to get a really loud snap out of it, i...

Just a heads up...looks like these were in stock at Knifejoy but already sold out. But they are trickling in to other dealers now.
Why do you do this! my poor wallet.

Seriously though, thanks for the heads up. I'll keep an eye out :).

Get an S30V if you need one now, or wait for the BBS M390/K390 or DLT M390 exclusives which I’m sure will come.
You have no idea how quick I'd jump on that BBS blue!

Re: Which spyderco is in the mail?

I'm surprised that Manix is still sitting around some places. Has the M390 fad already passed?? Great steel on a great knife! I was too! I wanted one fairly bad but didn't want to buy off ebay. I've never been scammed but I'm still paranoid. I saw it at cutlery shoppe and was one of those "wel...

Re: 2nd run Teal Dragonfly

I lucked out and got one of these when they were released initially. I have to say, that teal really pops and it looks great. Those that weren't happy with the s30V. I don't really know what they were hoping for with this knife. It's the perfect knife for a coin pocket. It's a great size, and it cut...

Re: Your favorite handle shape

I would have to say the Manix 2, with the delica in a close second. I haven't had the pleasure of handling a Para2 or Para3. We don't really have shops that carry knives of any sort of quality close by. The Manix 2 however just seems to meld into my hand.

Re: Which spyderco is in the mail?

I have a BHQ M4 DLC Shaman on the way... and a M390 Manix with the DLC blade.

The knife account is empty. I love you spyderco but you're releasing all of these too quick! lol
