So what does the Forum think about the Stag Arms Manix 2?

myprshe · Feb 3, 2011

I'm new here and this is my first thread so I wanted to start out with a discussion of one of my all time favorite folders the Manix 2. I just picked up this Stag Arms version and I was just wondering what the good folks of the forum thought about this particular knife.

The Manix2 is simply one of the best ergonomically correct knives I've ever owned and used. I would really love to see a Manix2 with Sal's compression lock.

Nice photos! The Stag Arms Manix 2 has all the good options checked. Premium blade steel, skeletonized liners, FFG, flat black hardware, coated blade. The only thing folks balked at are the big ole "Stag Arms" and logo on the blade. I have nothing against Stag Arms, I think they make excellent rifles. I just wish they were a bit more subtle with the lettering and logo.

FYI, I have one.

Yeah I've heard guys complaining about the large logo but being an AR-15 fan I'm not to put off by its presence.

Then you should get the SuperLeaf
Or was that a joke?

Agreed and besides, that blade has all that black stuff all over it anyway

I got one and a Superhawk, and no...not a joke. I carried the Manix2 in XHP for a long time and it was just about perfect.

I like it a lot. Does it have a full flat grind? Looks different than the standard Manix 2.

Yes it is full flat ground, it also has milled out or "skeletonized" liners and the blade is s30v.

It looks really sweet. But Stag's not my favorite AR company

. Wish Daniel Defense could've gotten it's name on a Manix 2 instead of a kershaw.

I'm team bushmaster all the way...LOL. But in all seriousness yes Daniel Defense has a reputation for making quality rifles that I'm sure is well earned.
