I bought my first spyderco sprint run! YESSSS! Its a Manix 2 CPM154/S90V blade with Peel Ply carbon fiber handles #012V I absolutely LOVE this knife!!

My question is when was this made?? 2017? 2018?

The fear is real!

Welcome to the forum, AD1RT, and be warned that it's unlikely that's your last Spyderco (or even your last Manix). :)

Welcome.

And before you buy another different Spyderco, you need a backup for that one. Those are the rules .... :) j/k

PS: I love that M2 version, too.

That is a sweet manix. I love the scales. I have been carrying it all week. Just received the red DLT manix 2 today though....

Congrats!!

I was able to pick up a 2nd of the 154/s90v sprint a while back to go along with my other two sprints. Love the peel-ply cf scales.
