What I found strange is all shipping notifications and info came from paypal instead of Bentobox.wrdwrght wrote:Mine shipped from California 23 April and arrived New Hampshire today, 25 April. The only thing that exceeds my admiration of Bento Box Shop/USPS efficiency is my admiration of the Manix 2's design, fit and finish. I'll give my fantastic Sage 3 a bit of a rest.

Hi,
Mine arrived in the mail@ 11:30 am. I opened it to find
a really great looking blade. I particularly like the color of
the G 10, and the knife was flawless. I did notice that the un locking
action seemed somewhat stiff but I'm sure that it just needs
some breaking in. I haven't cut anything but a little arm hair,
But I'm sure that this will handle pretty much anything that I
ask of it. It certainly will not be abused. Bento Box, great people to
Deal with. I hope everyone waiting, gets Theirs soon.
Have a Great Day,
Charlie

Who votes that I sell my CTS-XHP Manix and get this one? I already have and M4 Mille and Bradely, but like the steel and like the tan G-10 as well. Also think it will hold it's value better. Like CTS-XHP as well though, plus I usually carry it in inclement weather so my Bradley doesn't get all wet.
Thoughts?

That would be a tough call. I don't have the CTS-XHP but have heard good things about it. I just got the M4 Manix 2 today and love it. I'm lowering the edge angle that came on it by 2 degrees and it is taking a while, longer to remove steel than ZDP-189. You already know about M4 so if you ask it's obvious what you want to do. I guess I don't need to answer this question. You probably want an opinion of someone who owns both. Even then I bet it would be hard to make the call.jossta wrote:Who votes that I sell my CTS-XHP Manix and get this one?

Are you married? Sell your wife. :D I would sell my wife but I'd never get enough money.

Mine arrived today in Hawaii which is pretty amazing considering I wasn't expecting it until tomorrow or Wed. Beautiful knife. For once I like that it has a shiny silver clip. I usually prefer a black or dull finish but the shiny clip looks right on this color scales.

I vote you keep the XHP and save up for a M4. It will be expensive to re-buy the XHP and the M4 is as cheap as it is going to get now. You need something for times you need corrosion resistance.jossta wrote:Who votes that I sell my CTS-XHP Manix and get this one?
