Wonderful moment, lost my old man at 58 to kidney cancer, would do anything to share more time together!

Thanks yet again! Love how active and helpful this forum is! Frankly, it's refreshing to join a community like this!

Thanks for all the solid advice guys, really looking forward to my DIY project, I just hope I can get it smooth and do my best to keep the original look!

Thanks Bill, definitely good yo know!

Excellent, I thought a dremel would work for this, like I said I only intend to trim maybe 1mm - 2mm max. I assume to maintain handle integrity I just have to be careful not to grind into a skeletonized opening, correct? I apologize if this is rookie-type stuff, but modding anything on a knife is to...

Hi All, My Manix 2 XL arrived today and it's awesome! Smooth, razor sharp, and feels so well built. That said, I have discovered an unfortunate comfort issue...my pinkie finger is pinched in by the so-called 'Horn' at the base of handle. Has anyone shaved or rounded this 'Horn' down to make the butt...

BB Lock, more defined ergos, better choil, and all that jimping...i'm all about the Manix 2 XL! Mine is on order and while I agree the millie is a solid knife, the Manix 2 XL is a flat out beast!

Appreciate the responses and insight guys...in the mean time maybe I should just buy a Resilience...according to my better half, a Manix 2 XL is apparently going to be under the tree! And dont hate me for blaspheming but my CS Recon 1 Tanto XL just arrived ;) its very nice but my Spyderco is still m...

I know it's a lot to ask for and that I'm asking for a Military in a lot of ways. The kicker for me, is as much as I love the technical specs of the military, for some reason I'm not a fan of the blade shape or how it felt to me...I know, i'm strange! lol

Greetings All, I'm a long time fan of Spyderco, but this is my first post. I currently have an Endura combo edge, and am almost set to pull the trigger on a Manix 2 XL. That said, I recently visited a local shop and played around with a Resilience. I fell in love with how fast and smooth the blade d...
