Those look awesome. I have 2 on the way myself. Can't wait to add these to the pile. :D
 
Surely that lock has a metal core. I couldn't imagine Spyderco just using a plastic lock.

I like it but it looks Benchmade orange, not really safety orange you know?

In person the orange color is snappier, a bit more vibrant. Just comparing the iPhoto version and the Photobucket version on my screen, I can see they are different. Photobucket version is duller.
 
Looks nice and I usually don't care for orange knives. How does the polymer cage on the lock hold up? If I didn't already have a couple of Spydies on the way I might spring for one of those.
 
nice, i cant hardly wait for mine, hope it ships soon. didnt realize they skelled out the liners so much on the sprint. awsome.
 
The cage holds up about as well as the polymer in Glocks. :D Seriously, I have a couple of high-cycle Manix 2s and they've stayed right & tight.
 
They look great! I have one on order, can't wait for mine to comes in. Thanks for the eye-candy
 
My favs were the CTS-XHP and the S90V, but luckily I don't have the Manix2 bug. I'd be soooo broke. Even the Stag Arms model looks great.

Nice pix. :thumbup: Those orange handles really show off the skeletonized liners.
 
I just got mine a few minutes ago and it's the best Manix 2 I have owned out of 6 counting this one. All have been very good but there is magic in this specimen as far as feel, action, F&F and everything else goes. This one has some intangibles about her.

It could be the best $107 (for the money versus quality of materials and workmanship) general EDC I have ever bought right now and the Manix 2 isn't my favorite knife at all. Well done Spyderco and Jeff Loffer! But I feel that way all the time :)
