Maybe it's just me but this looks awful. I wouldn't give 10 bucks for it....

Re: Weird Manix
The product description is as tortured as the mod. As a Manix fan, I wish I could unsee this.

Re: Weird Manix
There was a guy on bladeforums, named Charlie Mike, who would do this Emerson opener mod pretty often.
I remember a picture of a G-10 Police where he did that... and the spine was shortened enough to fit inside of the handle when closed and he sharpened the spine and had a double edge, emerson opener, police.

Re: Weird Manix
What do you do when you find out modding a knife is a little harder than you thought? Apparently you say "I meant to do that! It's art!" and put it on eBay for $300. :)

Ah, block capitals...... That's the mark of a sensible person. 

Warhammer 40000 is- basically- Lord Of The Rings on a cocktail of every drug known to man and genuine lunar dust, stuck in a blender with Alien, Mechwarrior, Dune, Starship Troopers, Fahrenheit 451 and Star Wars, bathed in blood, turned up to eleventy billion, set on fire, and catapulted off into space screaming "WAAAGH!" and waving a chainsaw sword- without the happy ending.

Re: Weird Manix
Why oh why did I have to click on that link, that thing is hideous. The fact that he calls it a custom when it looks like something he bastardised with his dremel, ughh

Re: Weird Manix
Product description is absolutely classic! Think he stated BEAUTIFUL KNIFE 5 times.
The Manix is one of my favorite designs, I have 5 examples. Never thought someone could take a gorgeous knife and make it look like a turd........someone certainly did!!
Wow!

Re: Weird Manix
Wow.. the "custom knifemoder" might want to venture out into other things, maybe.. flower arrangements or something of the like, knife modding surely is not their thing.
