I managed to get both of dlts sprint runs . Now remember in December, i didnt even own a spyderco.
First came a lil native.
So when i saw the sprint run manix2, i managed to snag one . Now i am a reeve fan . So the manix2 was held to a high standard. It passed with flying colors !
Next i just got the pm2. This is in the m390. It came sharp , centered and smooth.
The blade opened even easier than the manix2 ! Closing the compression lock will take some getting used to.
Of the two the manix2 is my favorite. Cpm 20cv steel is only part of the reason. In over fifty years of carrying a knife . This steel is easy to handle and thats a big plus .
Disadvantages the plastic switch in the ball lock . An order to flytainum and i got one . Now i am going to test the switch or ball lock as flytainum calls it . I truly believe most of the failures on the ball lock were caused by poor assembly. Time with tell .
One last thing cost . Manix2 cost me 129. Pm2 was 169. A small sebenza is 375 .
One could buy almost 3 manix2 for cost of one sebenza.
Now if i could bring my self to put the pm2 through the paces.
