How are you guys already pre-ordering? I have quite a few places I order from and no one is even offering a pre-order.

Maybe they're pre-ordered out..? Or did they mention ever even taking orders for them?

I'm having trouble finding accurate info on this new knife, Is the only difference from the current blue sprint the foliage green color instead? Pictures I am finding show the option of tip up or tip down and was curious if anyone had the low down. thx

Besides the different color handle, the green Manix 2 features a CTS-XHP carpenter blade steel. I believe the pictures that you've seen on the web and the catalog are a mock up of the knife, but not actual.

Are you talking about between the original manix and the manix 2? Or the cf manix 2 and blue and green manix 2's?

I'm talking about the CH FFG Manix2 and the recently relased Blue Manix2. I keep hearing about a new Manix2 coming out that is FG. I am just confused.

Yes the foliage green FFG bladed carpenter steel manix 2 is on the way...hopefully in a month or two we'll be able to have them in our hands. And the blue FFG manix 2's are all sold out Im pretty sure.

I have no idea what CTS-XHP Carpenter steel is. What are the benefits and characteristics of the steel?

Wow donut that sucks...I wonder if the other retailers will get their dates pushed back as well....?? Anyone else heard anything?

This is what Sal said about the carpentar steel Manix 2 a while back..

"I just spoke to Annika, our factory scheduler. She said that the new Carpenter CTS-XHP Manix2 will be full flat grind with skeletonized liners. She scheduled to make a total 600 pieces.

I might add that the Carpenter steel tested very well in lab tests and should be an excellent real world performer. Essentially it's a stainless D2.

I'm sure we will be using more of this steel in the future."

Yeah that June delivery date was a bummer. Perhaps it means the initial number to be received by YCS was sold out and those of us who ordered more recently got kicked back?.... :confused:

Okay, I've tried to find someone to pre-order from the last few weeks and have met with no luck. If anyone knows where I can pre-order one or two of these, please PM me. Thanks.

edit: thanks MCM for sending me in the right direction. I'm on the notify list if the dealers have any left over after fulfilling their current pre-orders!
