New guy here, long time lurker with first post. I have a handful of pocket folders, emerson cqc 7, 10, 15, strider smf, OG Benchmade strider cqc 7, benchmade mini grip. All nice in my book, and fit my use. Recently i wanted a USA made Spyderco, the para military 2. After not finding one local and being impatient i settled on the Manix 2, nice comfortable pocket folder, seems well built, and seems like a solid knife. Not sure if it is because i am not used to it, but i do not care for the heft in the spring holding back the lock. It takes a fair amount of pressure to release/ Will this lighten up with use, or is this just the way it is. The axis lock on the Benchmade is very easy to manipulate, and unlocks with ease.
I seem to have a thing for the Emerson knives, and am now lusting after the Roadhouse. My Cqc 7 is 8 years old and has been threw the ringer, not a single issue and is a complete tank.
Anyway, lots of good info here, and thanxs for letting me in.
Cheers.

It's definitely different than Benchmade's Axis setup in feel.
