Should I get the Manix 2 LW and the UKPK or something else?

... So far it's also the only Golden made Salt.

Siren
Autonomy
Autonomy 2
Waterway
Swick 5 and Swick 6 (Im assuming on these two)

I keep forgetting about that Siren is out now. The N5 Salt was the only Golden made Salt folder. I don't count the Autonomy because they're so heavily restricted.

Pizza, you absolutely should get a Manix 2 LW imho.. it is an amazing design, and the CTS BD1N steel of the base model really keeps surprising me in a positive way.

But then: You should absolutely also try a serrated Spydie (and the Manix LW only comes in PE unfortunately...), especially since you have a sharpmaker already: Affordable options are the Tenacious LW in SE, or the Endela SE, maybe Salt 2 SE if you want something smaller.

I've been eyeballing the tenacious, the endela is sized between the endura and delica, right?

The Autonomy is an awesome knife, if you live in a jurisdiction that allows it.

Yes, the Endela is right between. It is a good choice for people who like the Paramilitary blade length but not the lock.

I like the length and love the compression lock, but backlocks are classic! Can you get the endela SE with the emerson wave?

Every Spyderco enthusiast needs at least one Paramilitary 2 / one manix2 be it lightweight version or otherwise and a stretch 2 . And so the snowball keeps rolling and gets bigger and bigger, enjoy the spyderco’s.

Serrations yes. Full Flat ground too. Wave no, thank goodness.
