New member, small collection

Post by jimc »

Evening all, new member from the uk checking in, sorry couldn’t find where to post an introduction.
Returning to collecting after an 8 year break, still got the odd spyderco left including what I am lead to believe quite a rare urban g10 in orange and vg10, also just ordered one of my grails which is the manix 2, which should arrive tomorrow.

Jim.

Hi, jimc:
Welcome to our forum. We're happy to have you here. I'm going to move your thread over to the General Discussion area; the Picture Gallery is more about pictures and less about words. ;)

We hope you enjoy your time with us and your new Manix 2!

Kristi

Hi Jim,, sweet urban.
Manix 2 is an awesome choice. Ergonomic marvel, at least for me..
But then again 90% of my spydies feels like that.

Welcome to the Forcum!

The Spyderco Manix 2 is a beautiful knife with a contoured handle that fits nicely in the hand.

Welcome Jim! Which version of the Manix 2 did you buy?

Nice Wharnie Urban. Your pic reminded me that I still need to find one.

Welcome to the forum, that Urban looks cool, I love orange scales (though burnt orange even more than bright)

- EDC: Endura thin red line ffg combo edge (VG10); Wayne Goddard PE (4V), Endela SE (VG10)

Welcome. You will love that Manix 2 and the Urban LW (I know yours is G10) is one of my two favorite pocket knives (the other is the Chaparral).
