Hey All,
After selling a couple knives to make room, I'll be buying a Manix 2. I had one briefly in the past but returned it due to a little blade play, and ended up going with something else. Since then, I've really wanted one and I've regretted not just exchanging it for a typically perfect model.
The other knives I typically EDC are a Dfly 2 in g10, a PM2 and a Slysz Bowie.
What would you recommend? An all black g10 Manix 2 or a Blurple s110v Manix 2?

It's almost too hard of a decision! And funds are tight right now so the textbook "buy both" answer tragically doesn't apply!
 
Manix 1.
Bigger than the Manix 2, smaller than the Xl and way cooler. ;)
Unfortunately, pretty pricey these days.
 
S110v manix. I have the frn version and use it a lot. Its my always gym shorts knife. But whether you choose a frn or g10 version you cant beat the 110v steel. One of my favorites and i Cut rope, duct board, wire, insulation, boxes etc (Im HVAC) all the time and hardly ever have to do any major sharpening other than a few swipes on the sharp-maker. Either way a Manix is a great all around knife carrys well for me too. Good luck with your choice!
 
Personally, I don't think you can go wrong with any of them. I don't have a S110V version yet so I can't advise on that but I also don't have a problem with S30V or even BD1. My knives don't see any real hard use and they're all pretty easy to touch up on the Sharpmaker when needed. I say go with the style and steel that best meets your budget. You can always sell it on the exchange and upgrade down the road if you need to.
 
Love my blackout ! That's my vote.
