What is interesting is that the response over on the Spyderco website is much more positive.
Over there Paul posted a comparison pic next to a Tenacious. And there are a lot of similarities...and I got to tell ya' Unless the price point on the M2 is closer to the Tenacious than the original Manix...I'm gonna go with the Tenacious.
The steel has no appeal in today's super-steel market.
To improve the original Manix, all I would do is use a beefier pivot and offer a choice of high-end steels.
Beefier pivot sounds great.:thumbup:
I like that idea too. FFG, larger pivot, 3.5-4"....![]()
4 inch sounds intriguing too.![]()
