Experience unmatched performance and innovation with the Spyderco Manix 2 Lightweight Translucent Blue. Weighing a mere three ounces, this extraordinary knife features a full-flat-ground CTS BD1 stainless steel blade. Designed with Spyderco’s signature Trademark Round Hole, it allows for effortless, ambidextrous one-handed opening. A high-strength Ball Bearing Lock, housed within a precisely machined steel insert in the handle, offers reliable support and security for the blade. The durable FRCP (fiberglass reinforced co-polymer) handle boasts a molded Bi-Directional Texture pattern, ensuring a secure grip in even the most challenging environments. The knife's reversible wire clip allows for left or right-side tip-up carry, making it versatile and completely ambidextrous. Acclaimed widely in the knife community, the Spyderco Manix 2 Lightweight was awarded Blade magazine’s 2010 Most Innovative American Design. It features the renowned Ball Bearing Lock, which operates with a free-floating ball bearing encased in a custom polymer cage. This unique design allows the lock to self-adjust for smooth and consistent performance every time. The lack of internal liners due to the self-contained lock further reduces weight, enhancing maneuverability. The translucent EdgeTek FRCP handle in a semi-opaque dusk blue color includes jimped areas around its perimeter and bi-directional texturing on both sides. These features make it exceptionally grippy in wet or unpredictable conditions. The BD-1 Carpenter steel blade stands out for its high-carbon and chromium content, offering excellent rust resistance and edge retention. It is flat ground with a spine and choil jimping, accented by an oversized Spyderco round hole. Completing the Manix 2 is an ambidextrous, tip-up wire pocket clip and screw-together handle construction. These allow for multiple carrying options, adding to the knife's versatility and practicality.
