Now, as we are finishing up the move in our new home, the fun has really started: opening and breaking down boxes. The Manix has so far handled it with ease. The 154CM blade has lost it's shaving sharp edge but it just devoured 6 giant moving boxes that had to be broken down to tiny pieces (really, it was necessary) to be put into the garbage. It also opened more boxes than I can remember and was great when it came to trimming down a slightly too large plastic silverware holder.
I don't often get a chance to really heavily use my knives but when I do, I do appreciate them even more. The Manix 2 has taken everything I've thrown at it and it is extremely comfortable to use. I've really had to pull hard on it break some boxes down and the knife is still solid (just really minimal play in the blade if I grab the tip and really pull it back and forth).
All and all to say, I've always known that the Manix 2 was a winner but using it so much confirms it. I do have some more boxes to cut down, but I think it's only fair to switch over to another knife. And it'll just be more fun.
Thanks for reading my ramblings but I know fellow Spydernuts would understand.
