Just got this in yesterday, it's the Manix2 sprint with CTS-BD30P blade steel. I really like the FFG. Anyone else have one yet?

I got one of those a little while ago, my First Manix, and i couldn't be happier, i think It beats my Para 2 for comfort and it's trimmer than the Para 2, just a bit heavier, and the high traction and more aggressive jimping is great. Reeally happy I was able to get this sprint run.

Hmm I think I felt the opposite with the manix 2. I got an orange s30v FFG sprint run around xmas time, and just recently picked up a regular production run of the para 2. I think the para 2 is more comfortable and has excellent jimping where it is actually needed. I also find the manix 2's lock to be hard to disengage.
Now that being said, I think the lock on the manix 2 is very strong, and the pivot is smooth as glass. The sound it makes when the blade locks open is also awesome. The manix 2 is a hell of a knife for the price, but I think the para 2 is a better EDC blade.
