The manix 2 is what got me into spyderco. My very first was the custom manix 2 by Lynch NW. Black g10 with a spiderweb design across the entire blade and on the custom deep carry titanium pocket clip. I love how strong the spring tension is on the ball bearing locking system. It feels like 3x stronger than any of my Benchmade axis lock and hogue able locks.

I agree with what you said I’ve carried a 940 For years. Like you said not the slightest but a good work tool that does what you require of it. Don’t care about pocket clips just take them off and it’s pocket food. Nice thing is with its aluminum construction it’s strong enough to ride in your pocket all day every day.. Who cares if you get a key mark or whatever it’s still works every bit as good as it did before. Green and purple is a great tribute to the Lemans winning jaguar.

Have both, carry the PM2 more, but my Manix is S110V LW so it's one of my preferred knives for moist environments and shorts whereas my PM2 is crucarta. I consider the Manix 2 lightweight in any steel to be the most practical production folding knife in the world bar none. Also S30V is wayyyyyyy underrated

Ive got its little brother.., the Double Agent...bad ass little knife for $30

Have both, but somehow i prefer manix

This thing sucks. The only thing it is good for is to carry on a hiking trip when you have no other means of sharpening. Even then i think I would rather try to sharpen my knife on a rock. The strop and compound sucks, the grit size of the stones sucks, and the surface area is too small. Also because the ceramic rod is round it makes it worthless, it loads up fast and is almost impossible to clean. You'll just wind up convexing all your edges and have overall terrible results.

Use the horl

Those things are amazing, I used to have an in depth on my channel but I had to take it down

I'll have to look into these, I see them on Blade HQ and wanted to see some reviews.

Just carry a bic lighter

Oh I agree 100%, I have other knives but the 940 is still the one I always go to. Like you said I carry little razor knives they were out change the blade easy. But I always have a pocket knife on me at work and it’s 99% of the time at 940. I don’t care about the new craze I want something that is just reliable and works

Price?

Sweet Spydie man! I love the look of that G10!

Get both they're both great knives, for different occasions 😊

Man i could have sworn i subbed to you months ago!! Either way i am back hahah. Thanks for showing this one man i really dig the size and blade shape for sure!!

With Spyderco now using m4 in some of their Chinese models, im hoping to see an M4 bow river. If they released one for sub-$100, it would be one of the best deals out there.

Been wanting this for a while and picked it up for Father's Day and man o man I've run out of knives to sharpen

Nice!

You can’t go wrong but Manix for me (aesthetically I prefer the blade shape).

Anyone with a sound understanding of Total Quality principles as well as the need to meet a wide assortment of performance requirements would immediately recognize that the Hogue Deka is a FAR MORE SUPERIOR knife!! (and at a more affordable price).

It’s really not though.

I’d like it with a file instead of the scissors or saw

Have several sod busters got my first trapper not looking back

Pm2

I own this knife and have lost a couple of the screws... obviously need some blue loctite on them. anyone know where to find replacement parts? I have emailed AKC directly and BladeHQ as well. nobody can point me in the right direction at this point... anyone know the screw specs?

I have an Old Timer trapper but honestly I might buy a Case trapper anyway. Some how this one looks a lot better than the Old Timer I have.

Manix all day. Own many variants of both.

When I bought a 940-2 about 6 years ago I didn't care for it as much as I thought I would. It ended up living in the console of the truck for a while. I decided to take it to work and beat on it until it gave up, or I would lose it and not care. After about a year of abuse that a few other knives couldn't handle, I changed my mind and I consider it the best all around knife I have ever had. As far as it not being slicey enough, I have other blades that are thinner and more efficient but can't take the abuse of the 940. I like so much I have a 940 on the way. Maybe someday I will pick up a custom shop version as well.

As much as I disagree with the outcome of the video. I appreciate the facts that you gave and agree with all to a point. But what I really loved was that this wasn’t clickbait and you didn’t end with it’s a dead even tie both are great knives.

I laugh when I hear “a coin will get in there and damage the blade” because I shove my 940 in crevices and use it as a pry bar 😂 it’s meant to be treated like a farm knife

I carry the PM2 when I’m not doing hard labor. The 940 is in my pocket on days when I am building and or dismantling.

That strop is for sh@t

Bought this at Walmart for five bucks. I was amazed it was a Gerber brand for that price, but I still used every day. It’s a good little cutter. With some awesome extra features.

Ive been using this sharpener as well for a while now. One recommendation i have is whe using the strop, go from tip to heel of the blade. Since you are going backwards with the knife going tip to heel will result in going in the same direction as when using the stone. If you go from the heel to the tip you end up basically making x's on the edge, that will still help but not as much as going in the same direction and really refining the scratches from using the diamond stone.

Bro what is that civivi front flipper in that pile of knives that thing is a beaut

It truly is a great knife sharpener! I reach for this one nearly every day.

I had one in black g10 before. Gave that to a friend. After a while, I kind of missed it. While I was thinking about whether to get another one or not, I came across the S35VN version with blue FRN scales. Much more expensive but a big jump in the steel so I decided to go for it. I'm really happy with my decision. Now I'm thinking whether I should get the Resilience also in S35VN. I have the standard one in my collection.

Hell I’ve been rockin my lightening otf, Esee 6, and a Kizer Elgon

Clean.

Bro get a cough drop

Yo jumbo 😊

Got one for my daughter and she loves it! I git the SPIT for myself, and use it at work everyday. Love the Minimalist series.

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

i have a CRKT civet bowie neck knife and it has served me well.

Try using the knife to cut your fingernails wolverine

Whoa man, you can't be using common sense on these modern EDC dudes that never leave their yard.

You get the "point"? Aaaah aaah?

I only buy knifes with a 90° spine

Great video my friend with some great points. I usually carry a traditional and modern folder every day. I find the collecting aspect of the hobby to be a bit more fun with the traditionals.

I had the Le Hawk, and its probably the most uncomfortable knife ive ever owned. Its a really good idea, but it just didnt work with my hand. I took the glass slipper route, and gave it away to the first person who could comfortably hold it.
