Yes, have some! I can now afford a FFG Manix 2!

Just one question, what is CTS-BD30P2 similar to?

 

[eloreno]

supposed to be very similar to CPM-S30V.

There's not a lot of information out there about the steel, but indications are it will perform similarly to, if not better than S30V. I just picked up one myself and am quite pleased with it:

Have one on the way, really excited. fFG and Skeletonized, the 2 reasons I never got a manix before. Plus I get to try a new steel, a win win.

It's a great knife. Steel is decent (pretty much S30V), the G10 has a great texture and it hasn't tore up my pockets yet.

I just got one in the mail yesterday. Love the way it feels in my hand. It's my first Manix and it won't be my last. I have a preorder translucent blue one I'm waiting for now.

i really like my manix2 BD30P. i like the way BD30P sharpens up (better than S30V IMO) and the heavily textured G10 gets an A+.

How does CTS-BD30P2 compare to CTS-XHP, does anyone know? I only have the latter version. Thanks.

My impression from reading a few things, it's like comparing S30V to ZDP...with the 30P being the S30V and the XHP being the ZDP.
