New knives(para,millie,rare manix2)

#1

Post by mcharb007 »

Got a few new additions over the past couple weeks. The first one is my foliage green D2 Para military. I really like this knife. As of know it is one of my favorite carry knives right next to my khukuri. I love the compression lock on this knife.

The next knife I picked up was the Carbon Fiber S90V military. This is a sweet knife with an awesome fit and finish. I really like this knife but find that I dont carry it to often due to the 4 inch blade which is illegal in my city.

Well as some of you know, I was one of the winners of the manix contest and have been waiting for this knife to come in. I got the pilot model in yesterday(thanks spyder crew it came fast) and was pleasantly surprised to find that if was the FFG model. This is a tank of a knife.

Pics may look a little weird cuz they have been sized down. May take some better ones later.

Great knives. We are all green with envy over that FFG Manix 2 Pilot, and the price was right! If I decide I need mine FFG I'll have to get it Kreined, and you got that ultra rare bad boy for free from the factory. Great pics to show off your new toys.

I really envy you, not because you won, but because you have a FFG Manix II :)
The fact that it comes as a gift from Sal & Eric makes it even more valuable. Enjoy it.

Sweet collection you got going, bummer about not being able to lug that military in your city. I leave mine at home too, but mainly because it is too big for my daily needs.

happy spyder'ng.

Mucho congrats, Mcharb! That FFG Manix 2 is really sweet! I would have a difficult decision to make had I won the FFG Manix 2: use it, or have Tom Krein grind up a regular one? :D

Either way, very nice haul. :cool:
God Bless Texas!

NICE!! glad you were able to share pictures of the Pilot Manix 2.....it's a good feeling to win something especially as cool as that. I hope to be adding a Manix 2 to my line-up sometime soon
