Re: The Show youre manixes thread.
Got her a couple weeks ago. Never owned a Spyderco before, but the ball bearing lock intrigued me, so I bagged this one. The thinness and lightness immediately caught my attention. The pattern on the FRCP keeps the knife secrure, without being grating. The fit in my hand, especially when choking up into the finger choil, is excellent. Not a fan of the spring strength on the lock. This has been my favorite knife to carry since I got it.

Re: The Show youre manixes thread.
Nice to see my thread is still active and getting to see a few new manixes. :)
The used ones look so awesome. :)

Still performing like new after almost 3,5 years of service! :)
And ofcourse my other 17 manixes are still a pride and joy in my collection. :D

Re: The Show youre manixes thread.
My current stable. Also have the LW DLC/BD1 model but lent that to my brother in law to use at his camp for a couple weeks. Tough choice deciding which of these to carry when it feels like a Manix day.

The Manix family is my first Spyderco love, and the only one in which I have a duplicate. I keep my first M4 Manix2 exclusive in my truck.

BTW, this week I swapped out the cages on my two XHP Manixes, with Ti ones. While I was at it, I also put in ceramic bearings. Definitely improved the handling for me .... the original white cage always felt "softer" than the black cages to me, slowing down opening and closing; subtle but noticeable - the metal cages fixed that.

Re: The Show youre manixes thread.
The backlock (C95) came with foliage green scales and was one of 600 sprinted in 2008. I was lucky to find it NIB on eBay a few years ago.Enactive wrote: ↑Wed Jul 17, 2019 1:31 pmWhoa!

Re: The Show youre manixes thread.
Nice. Thanks. Oh, it's a C95. I didn't see the liners and mistakenly thought it was a C101. Totally makes sense now.
Re: The Show youre manixes thread.
If you're wielding the sharpest tool in the shed, who's going to say that you aren't...?
Re: The Show youre manixes thread.
Cross-post. New cages and bearings.
Re: The Show youre manixes thread.
Hey Roland, when swapping your scales...is it easier to do so with the knife open or closed, or doesn't it really matter? Patiently awaiting my scales I ordered off Ebay 2 weeks ago :mad:
