Manix 2 Black weight
Manix 2 Black weight
Hi I just ordered a all black manic 2 from Amazon...when I checked the weight of the knife on sypdercos home page it lists it at 4.2...but the black handle silver blade is listed at 5.0 oz only difference I see is the color. Does anyone know if it is lighter and why thanks

That's correct, the standard Manix g-10 had full liners, the black had skeletonized liners. I noticed this a few days ago.

We would rather be the knife in your pocket, because is "works" better, than the knife in your showcase, because it "looks" better.

Date code on mine is BL. No skeletonised liners on mine.
Maybe mine is a fluke? Either way, I did not know they were supposed to have it. Let us know how yours came.

Well that makes it from May of this year. Sounds like the skeletonized liners were used for a short time. Maybe Spyderco ran out out of the solid liners and subbed in the skeletonized liners.
