Here, I'll edit this message w the pictures. I'm measuring it from the scale to the tip of the blade to be about 4"1/16th:

Oh......Yes.....

Finally got my first Manix 2 after 15 years in the hobby. Handled many of them, and it was always on my list. Just never pulled the trigger since other knives kept leapfrogging it. But I'm happy I finally got one. This is the Knifecenter exclusive with smooth G10 & Cruwear. Definitely the sharpest out of box Spyderco I have ever received. It may be the sharpest factory edge I've ever received from any maker, come to think of it. I do have some micarta scales on order to make it less murdered out. But I do like the smooth G10 better than I thought I would. Loving this one so far.

I picked this one up in the February drop, but hey I joined today. Great action, but I am a bit disappointed in how chippy it is. Strops up fine just a VERY delicate edge.

Three Rivers, 20CV ? It could be the factory edge. I’d use very fine ceramic rod to gently go over the edge few times on both sides, following the angle. It there is any burr or rolling from the factory, this should take care of it and you can just strop after this. CPM 20CV shouldn’t be so brittle to micro-chip an edge, especially with factory angle which usually is optimal. Your issue is IMO some kind of burr that chips when you use the knife. Good luck, welcome to the forum and let us know if you fix the issue.

Welcome to BladeForums S scubadoober , beautiful first post and one heck of a knife, we all get one here and there that develops a chip, comes with the territory buddy. Glad to see you posting and please do so again. You’re more than welcome to jump in anytime you feel the want or need.

I think I have completed the PM2 collection, as these steels will serve me well for a variety of needs, even though some overlap. I think I really have some good ones here, gonna serve me well for years to come. I should focus on the Police and Millie... Am really excited for the Millie 2, only own one serrated Military in 440V and own no Police.

Well hell, just when I thought it was safe to back in the water, these showed up down here on the gulf coast. Been on the hunt for one for a while and Bam, they're a pair.

Those look great. What’s the blade steel? Are they designed by William Harsey?

You could be on to something here. There was a noticeable burr from the belly to the tip when I got the knife that I toll care of, but maybe it needs a little more attention. It still slices effortlessly. Sorry guys last post without pics.

Here's a variation on Rufus' theme. This is a Wayfarer Compact in a full-on lefty version. It has anodized and jeweled titanium bolsters and hardware. Rufus popped for Mokume on his

Wood and anodizing are perfect match.

Not compared to that beauty of yours...

Get rid of the burr and you’ll be fine.
‘If you like reading and have Kindle, I’d suggest the very educational short book by the late (I believe) Dr Vadim Kraichuk, Knife Deburring. It’s not expensive but it’ll teach you in depth about the burrs and how to get rid of them
