Spyderco Manix 2 CPM-CruWear Folding Knife

The Spyderco Manix 2 (brand part no. C101MPCW2) takes the proven, best-selling Manix 2 platform and pairs it with a blade ground from state-of-the-art CPM-CruWear tool steel. Its leaf-shaped blade profile delivers a long, gently curved cutting edge and a sturdy, utilitarian point, while a forefinger choil and jimped thumb ramp allow a forward, detail-oriented grip for precision cutting tasks. The handle wears brown Canvas Micarta scales, the signature look of Spyderco’s CruWear knife family, and features a reversible spring steel clip for ambidextrous tip-up carry. Linking blade and handle is Spyderco’s patented Ball Bearing Lock, a high-strength mechanism that keeps fingers safely clear of the edge when closing.
