“Manix mania”



Where to start.

When i was 15 i fell in love with the Manix design.
Now almost 20 years later i already own 24 of them in all generations and variations , sprints and non sprints , lock backs and CBBL’s.
And i love each and every one of them. Sadly its for me not possible to put them all in one picture so i picked out my 10, G10 Manix 2’s instead.

Almost every single day of the year i carry and use one of them.
They always give me joy and pride when i am working with or taking pictures off them.
Every single one has a story behind them , some are gifts of my amazing loved ones , some i bought from friends , some mark milestones in my life and others are linked to incredibly lucky and beautiful days when i found one unexpectedly in a shop while on a holiday trip.

To fill in the picture i used memorabilia i have found over the years and also from my trips to the Amsterdam meet. My nr 1 day of the year! (Thank you Spyderco!!!)
I have bin lucky enough to go multiple times already.
This past event i met our amazingly talented Forum member and friend Robin there for the first time. And he gave me not only the cool French Patch in top of the picture but he also made me the wonderful custom scales you see on the 15v.

To cut things short i am Dimi and i am a Manix addict!

Great shot Dimi , I would love to meet Robin . Buddy Dan

This I my entry this year of the Manix 2 Crucarta , which has become a huge favorite . Shot was taken in the fork of a dead Ash tree with help of my youngest granddaughter. We planned this project down to the nail work on her hand and had a great time as always taking a series of shots . MG2 ( Dan )

I entered a photo and uploaded to the WeTransfer link but I inadvertently read the guidelines for last year's contest. So my entry was horizontal and NOT landscape. Is there a way to retract my entry and submit a new one? Also, how do I attach an image to this forum?

Thanks for your help.

"The Bottomer". My Spyderco Manix 2 Lightweight photographed against the pile of coal in the pit of the abandoned coal mine. I work as a Law Enforcement Officer deep under the ground. I'm not seeing any daylight at all...just like the bottomers, who were the mine workers employed at the lowest level of the mines back in the day. During my 12 years while on duty I was assaulted multiple times, contracted MRSA and got severely sick. By the end of each shift I often feel like I'm coming back to life...to the surface. Thanks for your consideration and best of luck to all of the participants. Pleasure to be here.
