Spyderco Manix 2 XL Review

The recipe for success: Start with an exceptionally strong lock, a manufacture using precise tolerances and add a blade honed from exotic high-carbon stainless steel. The conclusion is the Manix, now available in XL!
www.bladehq.com/item--Spyderco...
The C95 Spyderco Mega Manix is an assembly of small seemingly inconsequential features that added together result in one of the strongest knives from Spyderco to date. Outstanding ergonomics are the result of the convenient slide lock, the relationship between the blade's weight, and the handle's shape. These little things result in the smoothest possible opening/closing and reliable and comfortable cutting. A knife that fits perfectly in your hand!
Scales are a durable G10. Steel is USA made CPM-S30V. A three-screw pocket clip adjusts for ambidextrously carry, tip-up or tip-down. Includes hole for lanyard use. Made in Golden, Colorado, USA

I just got mine in, it feels very good in the hand for those that felt the original manix was a little small. Love this knife.

[@KnifeToolNerd]

This is my favorite EDC knife. I switch out between the CRKT M16 SF and The Spyderco Manix 2 XL. I enjoy big knives.

[@TadRapidly]

this is another awesome aspect of spyderco--they are willing to produce slight variants on already-successful designs. The Manix is just ridiculously nice. Look at the blade finish on the 154cm model; absolutely beautiful.

[@rapdog90]

ordered this from you guys a few days ago should be here tommorow! cant wait you have the best prices and shipping anywhere!

[@asilaydying1984]

@MPSecare its way stiffer but gives the feel of being stronger, also you have to release it from both sides unlike the axis lock

[@kpw528]

Why did they put the clip mounting holes all the way down there? It looks like it has plenty of room to have them at the top like the regular Manix 2.

[@JohnGrimsmo]

Ohh boy, looks like I've gotta start making scales for this one too!

[@CalebMcFadden]

Oh hey it’s the grimsmos

[@defenseandsafety]

awesome! thanks for posting the video.

[@BigAl43229]

Thanks for this video. Just got my Manix 2 XL on Xmas Eve and it's a wonderful knife. Easy flat carry (I use my rear pocket) smooth opening and great lock. I'll also add that mine came extremely sharp as I've got myself with the point twice now because I'm not use the this blade length! LOL Keep up the good videos I love them. BigAl43065

[@MONKEYDUDEELITE]

Oh my!! I got to get this!!!

[@ibcheddar]

Please oh please be back in stock with the benchmade 51 morpho blak serrated for Christmas!

[@stephenfowler8611]

I'm dying trying to choose between the Manix2 XL and the ZT 0770... I know there is a size difference, but damn I'm stuck. What's your opinion? I'm a Paramedic in New Orleans and need a damn good work knife. (Can't carry my ESEE 3 anymore)

[@Eldofarmboy]

Stephen Fowler, when in doubt buy both!

[@CalebMcFadden]

Ok I’m three years late but buy the manix

[@scottbollinger3641]

Great blade

[@MrHALOCOUST]

Dear BladeHQ, I don't know if you will even see this comment as the video I am commenting on is 7 years old, but whoever made this video sounds like an NPR version of Paul Rudd. That's it. Send me a Natrix
