Manix 2 LW combo edge?

#1

Post by fliptide »

Anyone know if the Manix 2 LW will be offered with a combo edge blade anytime soon?
I am looking to add a LW to the rotation, but would hold out longer if I knew CE was in the works. I am one the weirdos who likes CE :)
Thanks!

There's a CE g10 manix - I've actually got one in my pocket today! I really like CE on the manix platform. I haven't heard anything about a lw CE, though. I wish we'd get more CE and fully serrated options for the manix line.

You can have them made. I realize it kind of defeats the purpose of the Manix LW (which is a super value for a great folder) but I have a CE Cruwear Manix that is pretty nice.

Yes, if the LW wasn't pinned I would go the blade swap route. I know it has been done, but not something I would undertake.

I think the one you are looking for is the C101PSBL2, they are not super hard to find...

Now, a C101GS2, the fully serrated S30V, that's a bugger to find! ;)

Thank you! I will start looking around for it.

I have 2 of this variant. According to Spydiewiki, C101PSBL2 was only in production from 2012-2013.

C101PSBL2 Translucent blue FRCP PS CTS-BD1 2012-2013 124.95$ (2013)

Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Nope, you're spot on, that's the same part/model number I was referring to -- I am unaware of any other LW Manix2 model with a combo blade...

But while we're on the subject, if anyone has a lead on a C101GS2 (fully serrated s30v) I would be eternally grateful. :D
