I would go for the manix 2 with ffg blade. I love the sage line but the manix is a bit bigger and beefier which I like.

The Manix 2 is billed as a hard use knife. The sage isn't.

Manix 2. I just got the BD-30P Sprint and I absolutely love it.

The Manix 2 is a heavy duty knife, and as such, is heavier. The Sage 3 is a great medium duty knife that is, well, lighter. Now the Sage 3 isn't weak by any means, but whereas the Manix is a tank, the Sage is more of a Ford F150. So it mostly depends on use. They're both fantastic knives and I'm sure you'll be happy with whichever you end up getting to fit your usage needs.

Thx guys. I think I'm going to pre-order a translucent manix 2 from knifecenter.
