Is this a typo on bladehq's site or not?

http://www.bladehq.com/item--Spyderco-Manix-2-G10--7065 Hey yall, check out this link. It says the plain all black manix 2 is using s30v. Is this a typo or did they switch to s30v from 154cm?

I believe good info, old picture.

They switched to s30v

Alright thanks. The picture and the fact I have a 154cm version confused me.

yes they switched to s30v...from spyderco: "The matte black non-reflective blade is Crucible CPM S30V steel, hollow-ground with aggressive thumb serrations"
I personally prefer 154cm

Still, if I was going to order one from BladeHQ, I'd call and make certain which version I'd be getting.

Good advice, you can't be certain that they've gone through all of their old stock in 154CM. A quick call wouldn't hurt depending on what steel you would prefer.

huh. I didn't know they made the switch. Was the 154 they used to use CPM154 or 154CM?

Originally it had 154CM (not CPM154). Now they have changed it to S30V.
