The Manix 2 is one gorgeous and functional knife, however, I think that it's butt ugly with the sabre-grind blade. I fully prefer any Manix 2 with the FFG blade, and thankfully, that's what most renditions of the knife come with. I only own one Manix 2 at the moment, but hopefully that will change in the near future since there are many Sprints that I want to get my mitts on.
Great ergos, rock-solid lock-up, awesome steel(s), and buttery-smooth opening/closing action- pair that with beautiful aesthetics and one can't go wrong with the Manix 2.

I love my Manix 2, Id love it more if it was FFG and had skeletonized liners. But its balanced well none the less. I love the all black look. The ergos are amazing on the manix too. The jimping is probably the most aggressive Ive seen. Its also one of my sharpest knives. Right out of box, it was able to do push cuts. I feel like because of the hallow grind the tip is very delicate, its pointy as ****, but thin also.

The Manix2 is a great knife. It fits in my hand as if I had formed my hand in an open fist and someone made a mold of the inside of my hand. Then made the Manix2 handle to fit. Great lock that I trust like it was a FB. Also, there are enough different versions of the model to please just about anybody with at least one of them. I have the M4 FFG blade Manix2. Add the ergos of the handle and it's hard to beat. The 154CM blade is a great model also. The hollow grind blade makes it a great slicing knife IMO. Very thin behind the edge.

The Manix 2 is my knife of choice over all others. The finely textured G10 and the awesome Ball Bearing Lock have me hooked. I have the standard (154CM , saber grind) and the CTS-BD30P , FFG) . I have to say that even though i prefer the FFG blade , I always carry my 154CM saber grind. I'm just not too familiar with Carpenter Steel so I stick with tried and true Crucible. I would really love a sprint run with S30V (or Bohler M390). I like the idea of the skeletonized liners too. But for whatever reason I only carry my standard Manix 2. I like it the best over any other knife in the world. I love it.
By far one of the best Spyderco knives ever made. Fits my hand like a glove, is about as strong as a folder can be made, and the standard 154CM is one of my favorate all-around steels (for a number of reasons). Plus, to top it all off, , , ,it's one of the most value-packed, American made, knives on the market today. Now if I could only get one in S90v.

Of all(or very few) the Sydercos I own, I like Manix 2 the best. Very high ergos, nice design, really good cutting performance... Once I am done modding, it's in my EDC list.
