Considering both have flat grind and are considered heavy duty, I would like to hear your comments on the handling, lock, and feel of the two knives.
 
You will not go wrong with either one. I have both and I really like them both. The Lil'Temp is now discontinued so is harder to find. The 80mm Manix is a bit more robust maybe, but the LT has the compression lock which I believe is Spyderco's strongest lock. The LT is all blade and probably a bit easier to EDC although I have no problem carrying either one. The LT probably feels just a bit better in my hand, but the 80mm Manix feels good too. Both have the S30V steel unless you get an older LT. You just can't go wrong with either.

I do and no question about it, it's the Manix. It feels better in hand, it cuts better, and the clip is good for me. (I just hate the Temp's clip)
I bought the Temp in 440V, how I hate 440V. The S30V blades now are great.
I can't leave without saying something good about the Temp, it was my first compression lock and I love it.
