I saw a manix2 with lightning strike carbon fiber that was pretty impressive . It does not seem like it would be too hard to rescale. The only rub would be the elongated hole for the CBBL. You would need something like an end mill or router bit to do that, or you could just drill two holes an file ...

Are the Manix line only given Full Flat Ground blades on sprint run manix or will they ever just make the manix FFG standard? My personal preference is an FFG blade, but I would like everyone else's input. FFG is great and yea sprint runs come in it, but the new lightweight blue manix is also FFG t...

Both are great knife companys. Benchmade customer service is top notch , Ive heard spydercos is as well but never had to use it...I own several knives from both companies and use both. That being said what keeps me coming back to spyderco is , Yes their designs are non-traditional but as far as func...

i actually bought a para 2 about a month ago from amazon.com, opened the package and they screwed my order up, i got some sorta plumbing part in a spyderco box (no joke). I took it as a sign from the knife gods to look around some more and see what knives i may like better. To be perfectly honest i ...

The point of me posting was if someone at spyderco is making a mistake then maybe a first time spyderco buyer or knife newbie maybe turned off from spyderco forever.
