Looking inside the handle it appears to be the same as the FRCP
I'll take Eric Glesser's word that there's a mini-liner in it.

Wasn't it characterized as a "figure 8"? I wonder if it is shaped and oriented so that it goes from the pivot to the rivet just in front of the BBL.
I received mine from GP today. I really like it, this is my first Manix of any kind. It is a dark blue. Couldn't get any good shots outside so these inside shots will have to do. Mine is a little stiff, but very solid lockup...

It would definitely make sense to have some reinforcing around the pivot and stop pin.
You were right,mine was stiff at first but with use the it's much smoother and solid as a rock.I will definitely be getting the new S110V version when they become readily available.This is the Glock of folding knives.This will be my 5th Manix and all 4 of my prior ones started off a little stiff, but became easier with use. It is, IMHO, a great lock.
Great pics, BTW.

I’m patiently waiting to hear the “ka-thump” in my mailbox signifying the arrival of the Manix2 I pre ordered on the 11th which differs from the flutter of the normal junk mail.
I have the Manix2xl in s90v and looking forward to the slightly smaller new Manix. This one should be perfect.
Looks like I’m in the minority, but I have no problem with FRN.

I'm really liking the dark blue FRN based off of your guys pictures. I wish this color was an option on more of their FRN models.
