I'm just here to shake my head at the fact we're coming up on three years since the Swick 5 reveal. Wow.

I've decided to wash my hands of the model and move on.

Those are all really interesting.

Right now is one of those rare times when my knife collection and my covetousness are in perfect balance. I'm happy with what I have, and I don't desire anything new.

However, tomorrow is a new year and it's only a matter of time before the new catalog comes out, disrupting my zen groove and tempting me with shiny baubles.

The 2023 SHOT Show starts on Tuesday, January 17, 2023 (about 2 weeks from now).

Looking forward to the following for new knives and prices:

  • 2023 Product Guide
  • 2023 Retail Price Guide
  • Reveal Volume 12
  • Sneak Peeks at 2023 SHOT Show
  • I welcome dialog, as long as it remains cordial, constructive and is conducted in a civilized manner. - Titanic: Blood & Steel
  • You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you cannot fool all of the people all of the time. - Abraham Lincoln

Happy New Year everyone! :party-face

I see that Buddafucco is in charge of this thread again this year. Very Nice! :smlling-eyes
Thank you so much, for your work on this.

Reminder to all who may come by this way. The Date this year for Shot Show 2023 in Las Vegas.

2023 SHOT Show will begin at 10:00 AM on
Tuesday, January 17
and ends on
Friday, January 20
(All times are in Central Time. Where the Tall Corn grows!:)

I did see Michael do the Manix 2 History and Lightweight Screw Together Construction video, on Spyderco's YouTube channel, back on Sept. 30th, 2022. :bug-red-white



From watching that. I suppose is where I got the impression that the BD1N version was going to be the first screwed together construction Manix 2 LW model we were going to see. Is that not correct? Are there any of them out on the street yet? I swear I saw one this late Fall, somewhere on a Dealers site (BD1N). I was looking for something else at that moment, and never did get back to look at what I think was a screwed together construction Manix 2 LW model (Manix 2 LW CQI) listing.

This January 1st, 2023. In this thread. Is the very first I've heard about the Manix2 Lightweight Salt (CQI screwed construction) CPM-MagnaCut Yellow FRCP C101YL2 (USA) - SHOT Show (JAN 2022)
Does this mean I missed it somehow, or don't remember it being mentioned/shown back then? About a year ago now. Coming out as a CQI Model? I suppose back then, they didn't have an exact idea on when a CQI LW would be ready, but did have a Yellow/Salt/MagnaCut version scheduled to be produced.
Where did you see/find this CQI LW Yellow/Salt/MagnaCut version info Buddafucco?

I'm still scratching my head . . . . :eye-roll
I'm going back now to last years Shot Show videos, and revisit this.

I hope this list is incomplete. I was hoping to see more Manix (not LW), PM2, and Shaman options.

this is just what we know of already based on past reveals and discussion that haven't come to fruition yet. all you are seeing here is a backlog. this thread will be updated as the year goes on and more reveals are announced. the list will be much longer soon.

Stay tuned! Between Tuesday, January 3, 2023 and Tuesday, January 17, 2023 (SHOT Show) we should know more about new upcoming models.

This January 1st, 2023. In this thread. Is the very first I've heard about the Manix2 Lightweight Salt (CQI screwed construction) CPM-MagnaCut Yellow FRCP C101YL2 (USA) - SHOT Show (JAN 2022)
Does this mean I missed it somehow, or don't remember it being mentioned/shown back then? About a year ago now. Coming out as a CQI Model? I suppose back then, they didn't have an exact idea on when a CQI LW would be ready, but did have a Yellow/Salt/MagnaCut version scheduled to be produced.
Where did you see/find this CQI LW Yellow/Salt/MagnaCut version info Buddafucco?

I'm still scratching my head . . . . :eye-roll
I'm going back now to last years Shot Show videos, and revisit this.
viewtopic.php?f=2&t=91254&hilit=m2lw+magnacut

Thank you for that link and reminder, ladybug93.
I do now remember reading Sal's comment on that. It was a "Manix 2 with MagnaCut". No mention at that time, of 'Salt', 'Lightweight', or 'CQI'. I'm sure too, that when it was time for Sal to put some MagnaCut in a folder for testing. He just took some of this new steel to the blade cutting area of the plant, and said: "Will you cut a few pieces of this for me". I suspect that the cutter was in the process of cutting out some Manix 2 blades at that moment, and that's how he got a Manix 2 MagnaCut in his pocket for testing. And why not. It's fast (no machine re-setting or programming), and of course they have liners and scales there for all of the Golden mdels on hand. It was just too early for them to know at that time, as to what the schedule was going to be for a LW Salt MagnaCut CQI Mainx 2. Or even if there was going to be one. The MagnaCut was still in testing, and he said this about 6 months before we even saw that Native 5 LW MagnaCut at Shot Show 2022.

I did go back and review a few of Eric's Shot Show 2022 video interviews. With Knife Center, he did show a Yellow, LW, Salt, MagnaCut Native 5. No Manix 2 mentioned then or there. Should we expect one though, after seeing this early 2022 video, at some point in time? No, not really. There has never been a Manix 2 Salt Series Knife.
That Native 5 in the video did have screwed construction, but maybe they always have? I don't know, as I don't pay very close attention to Native 5 knives.

I also went back and re-visited that BD1N Manix 2 LW CQI listing I thought I remembered seeing a couple of months ago. I did find it again, and it is real. As a matter of fact I ordered one at lunchtime today, and it should be here Thursday!
:smlling-eyes

This Manix 2 LW CQI lack of public attention, strikes me as bit odd. It's been 3 months now, since Spyderco made their intentions on this public. The knives are Stocked at Dealers. We have been asking for a screwed together LW Manix 2 for years. I have to wonder why it has been so slow in gaining more public awareness? I know of a dozen people or so, who buy a new Spyderco knife at least once a week. No mention/talk of this from them. There are also zero YouTube videos right now, of anyone buying one, much less taking one apart. I did find one YouTube video made in the last two months, that was about 'a' new Manix 2 LW. But he bought it from someone who still had old BD1 LW stock on hand yet. So no chance it was going to be a BD1N CQI version.

I look forward to hearing just where Buddafucco got the information that a Manix2 Lightweight Salt (CQI screwed construction) CPM-MagnaCut Yellow FRCP C101YL2 (USA) - SHOT Show (JAN 2022) is coming. No mention on Spyderco's website. I get all of the Reveals, Supplements, and Products Guides from Spyderco. I have seen no Manix 2 LW Salt there either. :thinking

there was a video where eric said he had a manix 2 lw with yellow frcp and magnacut that he hadn't brought with him. with the salt classification given to the native lw with magnacut, the yellow frcp, and the announcement of the screw construction m2lw going forward, it's not hard to arrive at this knife being confirmed, just not revealed officially yet. we know it at least exists and was being tested by sal and eric.

i'll see if i can find the video again, but it was a while back and i only have so much time to dig. i started the linked thread based on sal's comment and eric's comment from the video. everything else is based on those comments and spyderco's own cqi announcement.

as far is it not being public knowledge, there's at least one thread dedicated to asking about the cqi here. afaik, it's a slow roll where they are only making screwed construction from now on, but dealers are still selling pinned copies until they are gone. and, the m2lw isn't a hugely popular model compared to many others, so maybe those are all factors in why it's not getting more attention. i know a lot of us around here are happy about it and have made it known here on the forum.

Thank you both!

I watched that video again, that RamZar just now shared here. I do remember watching that video, and see now that I had hit the 'Like' button then, and even commented on it. Though I must have just turned away from the TV for a moment, to pour a cup of coffee or something, and I missed that little snippet, originally. Where Eric mentions the Yellow LW.
:smirk

That has to be the first time that a LW Manix 2 CQI screwed construction was on video then, right? The first time I had remembered seeing one, was this last Sept. 30th, on Spyderco's YouTube channel.
:bug-red-white

Just when I think I am paying close and complete attention. Something slips by me! :smiling-cheeks

Now that you two have me all straightened out on this. I do want to go on the record, and would like to get your thoughts about the New Manix 2 LW CQI version not getting more a contoured grip, like we see in the new Para 3 and Native 5 lightweights. I have to wonder why, when making a new set/s of pricey molds for this new CQI Manix. What not 'soften' the grip area too, and make it more . . . 2023-ish?

The only things I can think of. Is either they didn't think to do it, didn't want to do it, or, most likely. That no new molds were needed, and they were able to get hardware that simply was able to replace the pins, with no other mods needed. I have to think though, that the pin holes would be smaller.
:thinking

Either way. When my first CQI LW arrives later this week. I'll take it apart, along with drilling apart one of the older ones. I will report back, and likely start a new thread about it.
