Quick thoughts and small unboxing for carton box freaks & lovers :D

I present you the PM2 and Manix
Definitely some good quality here
Much easier to handle the PM2 for my hand even it is my first Spyderco feels more natural on opening
Manix heavier looks like it can take it all, great knife, need to get used with the closing which feels a little tough to push the button, I was expecting to be easier

Really love them both and for sure will buy more Spyderco knifes
Very good quality and top look!

Thank you for watching

The Manix 2 CBBL can be a little more stiff than an axis-style crossbar lock.

My personal suggestion would be to just use it for a while and see if it smooths/you get used to it, to where it's not an issue.

However, if it remains too stiff, you can purchase lighter coil springs, or some people just clip one or two rings off the back of the factory spring.


Also, good first Spyderco choices and congrats on the new knives. 😃
