I see it going two different ways:ladybug93 wrote: ↑Fri Jan 13, 2023 1:40 pmi'm really glad to see the manix come first since it's my favorite. i can't help but wonder though if it would've been so hard to get if it had come after the shaman and pm2. and i wonder if there will be some reasonably priced 15v manixes now that people will be able to get the steel in designs they prefer.WilliamMunny wrote: ↑Fri Jan 13, 2023 1:34 pmGreat job Spyderco, a lot of cool items in this one. I would be tempted on the Shaman in 15V but I think my Manix in 15V will hold me off for now.
1. The Manix had a very small release. I did not count but with most retailers getting only 5-10 to sell I feel like there were less than 500 Manix 2 sold. The PM2 and Shaman could be the same.
2. Sal said 15V was much easier to work with than Maxamet. So maybe 15V will replace Maxamet, for the most part, and be widely available.
I am not sure how it will plays out but I am very happy with my 15V Manix at $157. The Saman would rock, but at $270, it is just more than I would want to spend.
