Green Manix 2?
Green Manix 2?
Is there coming out a foliage green manix 2 in stonewash finish any time soon?
Despite the catalog picture, Sal confirmed it is FFGRedRunner wrote:Full flat grind? I though it was hollow ground.
Our reason is quite satisfied, in 999 cases out of every 1000 of us, if we can find a few arguments that will do to recite in case our credulity is criticized by someone else. Our faith is faith in someone else's faith, and in the greatest matters this is most the case.

I keep flipping between FFG and Hollow Grind. FFG is "sexy", but I feel like Hollow Grind makes the Manix a real work horse. The Hollow Grind matches the strength of the lock, the grip, the blade profile - the whole package.
At the same time I like the lightweight S90V variant. So with the exotic steels, perhaps FFG is the way to go. But I've decided to hang on to mt 154CM and it might even become my hiking knife.

I don't think Sal said the sprint would stonewashed, but if you buy one perhaps you can find someone to media blast it and then stonewash (tumble or vibrate) the blade for you in an abrasive or polishing media.

Sorry RedRunner - Should have put up a notice sooner. We are actually migrating our store over to something with a lot more features that will help people get better discounts. Sorry about not putting it was closed. Have a great day!RedRunner wrote:Do you have a site for pre-order? I'm struggling finding it. I think Sydietalk's shop is broke. There is no knives (of any kind) in there. Checked Knifeworks and kinfecenter too.

Anyone know if this new green manix is different then the blue manix in that it will now have the option for tip up or tip down? From a preorder site's picture I looked at it shows that option but wasn't sure how accurate the pictures are when the knife isn't even out. thx
If someone wouldn't mind sending me a pm with a site that will actually be getting these and worth placing a preorder with that would be very helpful. found a couple but have never done business with them so wasn't sure.

I think that it will be tip up only. As I look at my Blue Manix, I think tip down will get in the way of the CBBL.SteelDragon wrote:Anyone know if this new green manix is different then the blue manix in that it will now have the option for tip up or tip down?
