Just taking some opinions on what you think would be a great new addition considering the ones I already have. I'm leaning heavy towards the Millie or manix 2. I know I'll probably hear a few ," just get em all replies " and believe me, I plan on owning them all eventually!
After reading your post, my first reaction was to get a Military, because IMO everyone needs to own a Military. The more I thought about it, I would suggest the Yojimbo 2, because it's the most different of all options and will give you the most variety. All the others will just compete for pocket time. They have their differences, but in general the size/shape/use are all the same (although the Military is a good bit larger). The Yojimbo on the other hand being a wharnie is a different animal altogether.

I agree but that dlc manix just looked too sexy.. Haha. But I'm planning on going yo2 and Millie next.. Working lots of overtime lately so I'm gonna treat myself. Southard may even be in the cards but if I did get a flipper I'd probably go with a ZT 0550 or 300 series

Excellent choice. I like all my Manix 2s (only have 4 all sprints) My favorite is the M4 but the DLC does look nice.

A Manix2 would be a nice addition. For something different try a Matriarch2. Although if you find a Yojimbo2 get it when you see it.

im looking out for m4 manix2, the s90v manix2 would also rock my boat, any sprint military and any supersteel pm2 (s90v, m390)... and a vallotton would be nice too.

Congratulation to your decision to take the Manix2, my next one will be the black Lightweight. The lock will be interesting and ambidextrous :)
