Didn't think about the fact a G10 Manix can be customized !
I wonder if the ceramic ball brings a difference that can be felt in use.

Someone in this thread will know for sure ! :open-grin
i don't feel a difference in mine.

it makes you feel cooler. seriously though, it's possible that they wear longer, but that's certainly not a need for the manix. it's a perfectly good design as is and people just like to make them their own.

Yes they say that ceramic doesn’t wear, and also said to have less friction with less lubricants. I change mine out when I put the Ti ball cage in. Maybe it’s just in my head but my other Manix is as smooth as it gets!

Why did Spyderco only use the Ceramic Ball in the CF Dodo?

I put ceramics in my Domino, along with a thicker thrust washer. Huge improvement over what was left of the originals…
