...it could be done cheaper if someone would like to split costs with me! (you could even be a Auburn fan) {shudder} LOL

Gotta think of something fun on this sad day.
LMFAO

Had to respond because you mentioned Auburn... LOL I'm a Roll Tide Guy myself... To bad I can't find a Crimson scale! haha

Thanks, I like that one the best too.


I think I am getting a portable light studio(nothing crazy) for Christmas. So hopefully after the 25th my pictures will be better!

Got my orange Manix 2 today! :D
It really is beautiful. The bold orange and polished metal is a striking contrast.

The only problem with mine is that it isn't very sharp at all. But, I'm sure a few minutes with the sharpmaker will fix that.

Now I want a blue one!

I agree I love the the contrast between the two! The blue ones are great as well, I have had several Manix 2's through my hands and the only ones I have been able to hold onto for one reason or the other is the Blue one and now the Orange one :D

Not to kick the thread, but does a collectors V# add to the value of this knife
when up for auction?

funny to see how all the different cameras represent Orange - different lighting conditions
and white balance settings. I've seen it RED-orange and Yellow-orange, just in this thread.

Funny question because to some it hurts value while to others it seems to make value go up.... Never a real way of knowing. Personally I don't like CC numbers on my knives.

I agree the lighting effects the orange a lot! It really is a vibrant orange :)
