Re: The Show youre manixes thread.
Officially been in the rotation for a week now, carried more days than not. It's not my favorite knife, but it's definitely grown on me.
I'm happiest with Micarta and Tool Steel.
Top four in rotation: K390 + GCM PM2, ZCarta Shaman, Crucarta PM2, K390 + GCM Straight Spine Stretch.

:spyder: I used to collect a lot of knives... I still do, but i used to too. :spyder:
Re: The Show youre manixes thread.
I mean, OBVIOUSLY it's going to be bigger considering it's an "XL" But, wow...it is A LOT bigger than the standard Manix. I didn't think it would be that much of a difference!

Re: The Show youre manixes thread.
I finally added a Manix and Mini Manix to my collection to go with my Manix 2 backlock.
I love seeing the evolution of the Manix line and the Manix 2 backlock was the most apple-to-apple way to compare the original series with the 2 series.
Spyderco have really refined their Golden backlocks to an incredible degree. The Manix 2 backlock is super smooth and solid, and the H where the lock meets the backspacer is so cleanly hidden with the jimping that I can only tell where the interface is by pressing the lock and creating a gap or by looking for where the thicker lock stock ends and the thinner blade stock begins. Absolutely incredible.

I love how small the Mini Manix scale looks! It seems like a perfect EDC size.
I wish they'd bring it back.
On topic, my beater Manix cutting CAT5e cable insulation.
