Capitalist made Tenacious?

Da, comrade, the imperialists make a good knife.

The Tenacious is a capitalist-made knife. China has been, in practice, a capitalist nation since at least the 80's.

I could call myself a hairless ewok, but that doesn't mean I am one.
 
I used to think that size-wise the PM2 and Tenacious were somewhat interchangeable but the Manix 2 is probably closer. I have a Tenacious and to me it seems that the handle is just a tiny bit short for my hand, despite how it looks in the photo above. I think the shape near the bolster makes you grip farther from the blade and makes the handle seem short. I don't have that problem with the Manix 2 and the PM2 has plenty of handle length. The Tenacious is a real bargain knife- well made, liner lock and G10 at a good price, but the Manix 2 can be found used at good prices too.
 
The Tenacious never really did it for me, but for whatever reason I love the Manix. Probably because it's only 3 ounces. The Tenacious does make a nice sounding thwack when it's opened, but I think it's just a little bulky for what it is. Hopefully I don't feel that way about the blurple Manix when it comes out.
