New guy here
New to the forum, Hello. I have had an affinity for knives since I was a kid. Big fan of Benchmade and especially Spyderco’s. Been lurking awhile and decided to sign up today. The knife bug has hit me really hard this year. Have a Manix 2 110v on the way!
I don’t trust people who don’t like dogs.

Welcome to the forum Red! Nice pile you got. Is the Manix on the way the g10 or lightweight?
Re: New guy here
Welcome! You can't go too far wrong with the Manix. The lock feels a lot different from the Benchmade Axis, but I actually find that I prefer the Spyderco version (which feels stiffer to me).
Re: New guy here
Welcome RED . You’ve landed at the right destination, enjoy . Interestingly last week I purchased a Siamese fighting fish BETTA and called him RED as he is a striking red colour, he is surprisingly friendly . Have fun, in.
Re: New guy here
Welcome! Nice collection! The Manix 2 is one of my favorites - hope you love it.

Thanks JuPaul, I bought a Native that I love and the Manix looked similar so I went for it. Love that choil and the jimping.

Nice! Welcome to the Forum.
