Brown M390 Manix
Re: Brown M390 Manix
Wow, they certainly jacked the price up by almost 10$.

Re: Brown M390 Manix
probably to adjust for the mysteriously standard january 1st rise in business costs.
$10 more still isn't terrible for this knife though. if they do another dlc run, i may have to pounce.
keep your knife sharp and your focus sharper.

Re: Brown M390 Manix
Dang now I’m torn! Do I hold out for spy27 at $140, or grab an m390 for $6 more? I was really liking the cobalt blue..

Re: Brown M390 Manix
I haven't even worn out the one I got from the previous run, so this is an easy pass for me. It's a good variant though, so good luck to anyone who is planning to get one.

Re: Brown M390 Manix
I love this variant. I may have to pick up another one.
Re: Brown M390 Manix
If I didn't already have the 20CV version, I'd likely be all over this one. I love the subtle brown G10. Don't have a knife with brown G10 these days....hmmmm haha.

Re: Brown M390 Manix
Having the brown M390 variant, that is my exact same reason for passing on the 20CV red DLT Manix haha
Re: Brown M390 Manix
Does anyone happen to know if the new run will include the DLC variant?
I'd really like to grab one in DLC and do some nice scales for it.

Re: Brown M390 Manix
now the real question is do i grab this or hold out in hopes of a dlc cruwear manix with purple g10?

Re: Brown M390 Manix
KSF has the DLC one in stock now for any waiting on one. Looks nice. Too bad I'm way over budget for this year.

Re: Brown M390 Manix
Just received a satin one from CutleryShoppe. Seems like a nice example of a Manix2 to me, though the ball clicks while opening when it passes the detent portion of the blade tang - not a problem, might wear in, just hadn't heard that on a Manix before.
In any event, glad they did another run. Thought I had missed these when I grabbed one of the red M390 Para3s instead last fall. Nice to have some more of this steel in a leaf-ish blade to go along with the 204P Domino.

Re: Brown M390 Manix
Just received my DLC bladed manix from whitemountainknives.com.
This is my second g10 manix, and this has the best action of any manix 2 that I own.
Another interesting thing that I noticed is that the liners are also blacked out like some users have been pointing out on the para 3 cqi version. Correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks like Spyderco will be blacking out the liners on all coated blades from now on?
