Spyderco’s G-10-handled Manix 2 is the go-to choice for serious knife users seeking the perfect balance of heft, full-service cutting performance, and ambidextrous operation. The new Salt Series version of the design elevates performance further by using ultra-corrosion-resistant marine-grade materials. The Manix 2 Salt’s full flat-ground, satin-finished blade is crafted from CPM MagnaCut-a revolutionary particle-metallurgy steel that offers a remarkable balance of edge retention, toughness, and extreme corrosion resistance. It features a fully accessible Trademark Round Hole for swift opening with either hand and serves as a proud symbol of the knife’s Spyderco pedigree. The blade locks securely when opened via a high-strength Ball Bearing Lock mechanism housed within a handle featuring full, skeletonized stainless-steel liners and G-10 scales. To guarantee a secure grip, even with wet hands, the scales have an intricately machined Caribbean Bi-Directional Texture pattern. This high-traction pattern also reveals alternating black and yellow layers to enhance the knife’s visibility in and around the water. To ensure secure, convenient carry and immediate access, the Manix 2 Salt also includes a reversible pocket clip that provides a choice of left- or right-side tip-up carry.
