Help me decide

I'm going to order anothe spyderco today. I can't make up my mind though. My choices are: the new sprint manix, gayle bradley, or sage 1. Let me know what you guys think

i would go manix, then gb, then sage

I would order the Manix... Because once it is sold out, it is gone. At least with the other two, they'll be around for a little while.

I like everything about my Manix 2 (CTS BD30P) except the lock. For me, it's not very intuitive or comfortable. I've been eyeing the Sage series for the past few days. My Zulu and Para 2 are my favorite Spydies right now though.

Manix imo. I foresee little availability after they sell out. that one is a solid keeper.

Manix 2 hands down choice. SPRINT RUN.

I agree. Sprint Manix first. The others will be around a lot longer.

I've got an Orange S30V FFG sprint run Manix 2, is this thing like the red headed step child of the sprint runs? I don't see it getting much attention.

I'd go Sage, GB, then Manix. The Sage is just such a perfect knife for EDC, and is very light and comfortable. Thin, light, nice looking, low profile, and sturdy. I've used my Sage hard with no problems.

The GB is very solid and well made, plus the M4 is also impressive. It's just a little bulkier and less discreet than the Sage. I had problems with rust from sweat on hot days though, even with a bit of oil. It wiped right off, so not that big of a problem.

For some reason, I just don't like the Manix 2 much compared to other knives. It's bulky in pocket, plus the cutting edge is short for the overall size of the knife. Something like a Para 2 would be lighter, easier lock, stronger (nested liners), plus thicker blade with less wasted edge. Regardless though, it'll be hard to go wrong. :thumbup:

While I really like the Manix 2 I like the Para2 better as it just seems to melt in your hand and fit like a Glove. Sage is okay but I would make it my 3rd pick as you can't go wrong on the Para2 ~~ my $05 worth.*

i vote manix2 BD30P.

Sprint Manix- short shelf life; like other posters noted.

 

[Gadgetman7]

I have to agree with most of the posters. Get the Manix sprint. It's lighter than the standard Manix and with better/at lease different steel. BTW the other two are great knives. I would get the Sage next though.
