Yes please. Don't really care what it is but I'd like to see another sprint in G10 with lightened liners. I can't afford the crazy prices for any of the older Manix sprints now.

I think Tvenuto mentioned in his Amsterdam report that Eric Glesser is making a flipping Manix with RIL lock :)

This would instantly become a grail for me.

As a production piece I'd like to see G10 S30V or S35VN to keep the cost down somewhat.

As a sprint (preferred) I'd love to see this in the XL with a peel ply carbon fiber scale and steel in 204P, XHP or 3V in that order.

Either way this is very exciting news to me and I'd be happy with any configuration but I do prefer the XL.

Here's a quote from Tvenuto's thread
"Flippin" Manix (2, how could you not be somewhat interested?)
As the name indicates, this is a Manix flipper. I know some feel that the Domino was already something of a Manix flipper, but this one really is externally identical to the Manix. The one presented was in full Ti RIL, with no lock bar insert or lockbar cutout. Now, I think that being a prototype those last two facts will change, as Eric seems to like lock bar inserts and access cutouts. This one is much more than just a RIL slapped onto a Manix blade, changes to the stop pin were made (moved it outside the blade), and the pivot was enlarged. In short, a lot of work was done behind the scenes to make the overall impression similar to a Manix. Those who like RIL flippers should be pretty ecstatic about this one. I personally would like to see some sort of milled or texture feature on the Ti scales. Again, being a prototype there was no indication that some milled feature would or wouldn't be included, that's just my 2c.
Pretty sure the blade profile and size was identical to the current Manix. No steel listed (most protos had unmarked blades) but I would imagine S30V or XHP. Either way, your guess is as good as mine.

Sounds cool to me I would try one. I would at least like to see the blade S35vn

I was just hoping for a different blade steel for the M2. S90v or 204p something like that.

S90V has already been done. I would buy a 204P M2 for sure.

Also, I wonder if we'll get a S110V G10 Manix 2?

The more I think about the Ti flipper with RIL lock the more I like it. Even if it was one side Ti and the other G10 it would be pretty cool.

Same here. Other than the cf/ti s90v military, this is the most exciting knife I've heard of for a long time. I just hope we get a premium steel and it's available in XL otherwise IDC what the presentation scale is, someone will make CF aftermarket ones anyway!

I read this wholebthread and all I can remember is S90V Ti Military.

I have issues.
On my radar: 110V Military, Police 4 and some sweet Rex 45 Military action.

Newest Spydies: S90v Ti Military, Pacific Salt and a special Kiwi.

Don't care too much for Manix's but this one I would definitely get, or any other blade in this combo and yes, 4V would be nice too. :D

A Sprint Run is a limited edition with a fixed number of pieces. It can be an older discontinued model brought back with a new steel, handle color or scale material, or a current model with a steel, color or handle material different from the regular production version.

An Exclusive is a limited (but less strictly limited) edition sponsored by a dealer, distributor, or other re-seller.

Eric if you are reading...

If you are making a Manix RIL with flipper, is the blade going to be just like the standard Manix's? That would be nice or it can even be narrower imo. Please consider not making it broader,shorter or stubbier like the Domino/Dice. Just my input.
