Re: SNK Manix 2 4V Coming....
I would've preferred that it be saber ground like the fradon lock exclusive, but I like 4v so much that I think I'll try to get one anyway.
Re: SNK Manix 2 4V Coming....
What other 4v has snk done? Lil native and shaman?

Re: SNK Manix 2 4V Coming....
Manix 2 has already been done in M4- somebody remind me how 4V is better than M4.
Re: SNK Manix 2 4V Coming....
It really is! Best of luck scoring one. I may sit this one out.

Just bought a bow river from them to make sure I’m as set up as I can be when Friday rolls around.

"From a custom knife maker perspective, there is no reason to use CPM M4. CPM 4V will have all the vanadium carbides but will be tougher and operate with a higher working hardness."
From my personal experience, 4V will keep a keen edge and a working edge a fair bit longer than M4, and M4 is way less tolerant of doing something like hitting a staple or cutting cables ..... :D
Cheers,
John
Re: SNK Manix 2 4V Coming....
My findings aren't nearly as technical, but I completely agree...4V is greater than M4JMM wrote: ↑Sat Apr 04, 2020 8:16 pm

Re: SNK Manix 2 4V Coming....
I'm definitely into this one. Favorite platform, favorite steel...I'd buy multiples if I could. I'll be scrambling to get one, but I guess with everyone at home, they'll sell out super fast.
Re: SNK Manix 2 4V Coming....
I was thinking the same thing, but also...sadly, many at home don't have the disposable income these days either. I'm really not sure what to expect on this one.

Re: SNK Manix 2 4V Coming....
Hmmm, keep the manix g10 rex45 or replace with this?
Of course that depends on scoring one.
Only other SNK i have is the lil native

Re: SNK Manix 2 4V Coming....
If you can keep both, I'd do that. Nothing wrong with one satin and one dlc, in two fantastic steels.

Re: SNK Manix 2 4V Coming....
Arg! I have one appointment that hasn't been canceled this week - ONE! And of course it's at 11am on friday right before this drop. Hopefully my ferrier won't mind me refreshing my phone every 10 seconds while I hold my horses for her...
