Picture request - Manix 2 and Sage Size Comparison

#1

Post by Stasis »

I've been stuck for about the past week or so trying to decide on my next Spydie. My EDC right now is a Manix 2 that I picked up earlier this month, but now I want something new that's smaller, lighter, and more people-friendly. (Of course, I have several already that fit that description, but I'm sure you all know how the addiction goes. ;) )

The two I really want right now are the Sage 1 and the Chaparral, but for now I can only get one.

I've looked at the numbers and the Sage doesn't seem THAT much smaller than the Manix 2. Now, I'm certain it's much lighter and has a generally less beefy feel since the Manix is a beast, but as far as length and handle width, I'm not sure if I'd be happy with the size of the Sage right now if it's a little too close to the Manix.

So the question is... can anybody offer a picture of the two side-by-side for direct comparison? It would be much appreciated. :)

Thanks a lot! :) That's actually quite a lot bigger difference in length than I expected. (4 5/8 closed on the Manix vs. 4 3/16 on the Sage didn't sound like much in my head.)

The Sage looks perfect. :D
