Re: The Manix 2 lw is pretty good
I just bought my first M2lw a couple of weeks ago for work, the blacked out version posted above. I have 2 g10 manix and love them so why not try out the lw model. It has the new cqi screw construction and has drop shut smooth action right out the box. Definitely impressed especially at the price point compared to other golden models. Can't wait for the salt lw manix in magnacut !!

Re: The Manix 2 lw is pretty good
Let me just say: I still think that my REX45 Manix 2 LW is certainly one of the best knife purchases I've ever made.
It's just that sometimes I want more cutting edge and generally slightly prefer a straighter (less curved) edge, but apart from that:
Great EDC folder, could not be without some kind of Manix LW in my life anymore![wink ;)](./images/smilies/winking-face.png)
