DLC with an earth tone Peel Ply G10 would be sweet. Or even Satin with an earth tone Peel Ply G10. Anything really. I'd love to see it in Delta 3V actually, but that's just me! :D

I sure hope they materialize! A DLC 4V sprint run with tan/brown or ranger/OD green scales would be awesome!! Or even a green/brown burl G10, because I just remembered thats possible.

Oh yeah. Hollow ground and non-DLC, with marbeled CF would be phantastic :)

(to be honest, I'll buy it in any color combination)

Fradon Lock exclusive? Not my thing, but I wouldn't be too surprised.

That would be interesting. Have we had any Manix XL exclusives? I believe there was a sprint run with CF scales many years ago. With S90V I think.

I have the peel-ply S90V Knifeworks exclusive and would be game for an uncoated 4V Manix2 XL.

Not just you for the D3V :)
But 4V DLC earth tone Peel Ply G10 sounds perfect! Or CF.

DLC or not, count me in. Make it available in a sufficient quantity to last a whole day, and a good part below $200, if that is realistic.

I'd rather have it over $200 if that's what's necessary to make it last all day.

4v is a great choice for the Manix XL. :)

Sure, if it costs more, fewer people can afford it, and the stock will last for longer.

I don't like that.

It's business. Best everybody wins. Also those with not such huge funds. I really hope many of us will get the chance. Including me.

Man, wouldn't it be an awesome surprise if this ended up being a Micarta Manix XL with FFG 4V blade?? That would really cap off a great 2019! :)

If a 4V Manix XL came this year my wife would kill me because I would be compelled to buy one! I’m hoping we see it mid next year, seeing the timeline of the Cruwear Shaman makes me think that.

Better next year sprint run then this year exclusive. For the reasons I mentioned earlier.

NO! You can't have it! Now go away or I shall taunt you a second time. The XL is henceforth banished from all sprints and exclusives.


Ok seriously though I hope you guys get this one. I honestly don't get why this knife never got more attention. It isn't for me but it sure seems to have at least enough following for a smallish sprint to satisfy the demand.

Maybe the regular MXL isn't selling well? Although I wouldn't know why...

My only hope - if this one comes true - is that it won't be with FRN scales. I mean if it's 4V I'll try to snag one anyway - but I'd love it more with any other scales.
