There was a black G10 Manix 2 with FFG?

Yes, with 154CM blade, it was one of the few Pilot Runs with a FFG (BTW, there were 50 Pilots total, I never found out how many were FFG).

Those are great Manix collections... and Spyderco is working hard to make them grow further!

Fortunately for my wallet, I'm not a big Manix fan, so I won't showing similar pictures. However, Spyderco is also working hard to empty my wallet with other models. :)

A couple early C95s with the dinosaur jimping, one with no bug (the screws and pivot are different, too):

Very very nice!!! I love that jimping!! I am sure that it wasn't as functional as the smaller stuff, but aesthetically I just think that it suits the knife a lot.

Nice collection! I just have 2 Manix 2s but I anticipate that as my knife budget grows (this will be happening soon) so will my Manix collection. I know some people think of the Manix series as a bit too large/bulky for EDC but once I held one in my hand, I knew I was going to be using it often. I can't think of another folder offhand that locks into my grip like it does, and it is built heavily enough to work hard without worrying about tearing it up.
