I am getting an orange Manix 2 this week! I had the original hollow ground Manix 2 and I absolutely hated the blade. I loved the handle, but the blade looked ugly in my opinion. To me, it looked like an ugly kitchen knife. But I have an ORANGE Manix 2 on the way. I already have an ORANGE Ritter Grip so this will be a great addition! Who else owns one?
