I saw the lightweight manix 2 in the catalog and I have to have one. Is it a sprint run? I hope not, but hopefully someone can tell me.
 
I believe regular production, as the sprint runs are listed on page 65 of the catalog (with the sole exception being the CF version of the Balance which is listed on page 33).
 
The blue flavor (your thread title) was a sprint run of a few hundred pieces, which are long gone. You can find one or two on ebay for about $70 over MSRP.

I had one and sold it, but which I hadn't. I'm looking for a replacement, but don't want to pay $190.

There is a current sprint run of orange FFG Manix 2's, which you may still be able to get in on. You can google it. They are currently shipping. I am still waiting on mine.

I think he is referring to the Manix 2 with translucent blue handles. It's in the 2011 catalog. Not the same thing to which you are referring, I believe.
 
It's online now! I was disappointed that it didn't come through in clear. :( I built too many "Visible V8" and "Phantom Mustang" kits when I was young, I guess. :D
 
Okay just so everyone knows what is going on. Yes there is a new Translucent Blue Manix 2 coming out in 2011. It is not being produced right now. It IS NOT a sprint run. It is an open production. They are not for sale anywhere because they don't exist yet. I contacted Spyderco and they said they can not give a production date as of yet but should be out sometime early to mid 2011.

Hope this helps.

It is not a Sprint run so when they do come out it should be easy to get.

There are a lot of cool knives being made for 2011 so get ready to spend some money.
 
Thanks! I'm looking forward to it.

That happens, it's all cool.

Beware though, there are some knives in that catalog that will make you become addicted to Spydies, if you are not already an addict (I am...:D).

Navaja, Sprint run Millie in CTS-XHP, Sprint run Manix 2 in CTS-B75P, native 5 in CPM-S35V, Translucent Manix 2, Zulu, etc. etc. :)
