This product is intended for use only by adults with knowledge and experience in handling sharp cutting tools. Improper use of the knife can result in serious injuries. The blade is extremely sharp and can easily cut through skin and tissue; therefore, extra caution should always be exercised while cutting, and hands should be kept away from the cutting edge. To prevent the knife from slipping, it is recommended to cut on a stable, non-slip surface and avoid excessive force, which may cause uncontrolled blade movement.
Leaving the knife on the edge of a table, countertop, or in easily accessible places—especially where children are present—poses a significant safety risk. The knife should always be properly secured after use, ideally by placing it on a stable surface or storing it in designated knife blocks, protective sheaths, or magnetic strips. The knife should never be used for tasks it is not designed for, such as opening cans or prying objects, as this can damage the tool and lead to dangerous accidents.
A dull blade increases the risk of injury, as it requires more force and is more likely to slip from the material being cut. Therefore, it is essential to sharpen the knife regularly to maintain optimal sharpness. Additionally, proper cleaning and drying of the knife are necessary to prevent corrosion and bacterial growth. Periodic inspection of the handle and blade is recommended to check for cracks, chips, or looseness. If any damage is detected, the knife should be repaired or replaced immediately.
When using the knife, focus solely on the task at hand—avoid talking on the phone, watching television, or other distractions while cutting. Ensure proper lighting in the workspace for better visibility and control. Please note that some countries or regions have laws restricting the ownership and carrying of knives. Before purchasing or using this knife, verify that its use is legal in your location according to applicable regulations.
Following these safety guidelines will help ensure safe and effective knife use, minimizing the risk of accidents and extending the lifespan of the tool.
Manix 2 Lightweight CPM SPY27 Plain, the second generation of Spyderco's most recognizable folder, the best E.D.C. Extremely lightweight, clad in the elite Mineral Blue color reserved for knives with a blade of CPM SPY27 steel. Made in Spyderco factory in the USA (Golden, Colorado).
Spyderco has long been considered a leader in the use of exotic, high performance steels for knives. After years of using the best materials the leading steel manufacturers could provide, the company decided to create its own alloy. In collaboration with Crucible® Industries, it developed its own CPM SPY27 stainless steel, where SPY refers to Spyderco and 27 is the atomic number of cobalt (Co).
CPM SPY27 - a proprietary blend of alloys including vanadium, molybdenum, niobium, nitrogen and cobalt. It contains 1.4% carbon and 1% niobium (Nb), one of the best carbides, which contributes to the wear resistance of the steel. This makes the steel very long lasting and guarantees aggressive cuts for a long time. Easy to sharpen, corrosion resistant and contains 14% chromium. It provides good strength and edge retention as well as a fine grain structure. This unique steel is produced at Crucible Particle Metallurgy (CPM) mills.
Ball Bearing-Lock, one of the strongest blade locking mechanisms. Hardened ball bearing placed in a black polymer basket in open position pressed against the blade by a spring. Made in USA.
Blade - with Leaf-Shaped profile, thickness 3.2 mm. Blade is covered with a non-reflective matte Stone Washed coating (masking minor scratches caused by use). Plain blade has a Full Flat Grind. The flat grind provides excellent cutting edge geometry with a sharp tip. The enlarged 14 mm SpyderHole (Spyderco patent) allows opening the knife even with a glove. Distinctive Finger Choil - arched undercut for index finger and notched ramp for thumb on back of blade increases control of knife.
Handle - Mineral Blue color. Made of lightweight FRCP plastic, has a bi-directional texture (Bi-Directional Texturing) providing excellent grip in all conditions (even with greasy, wet hands). Folder is equipped with a screw-on molded wire clip (left/right) that allows you to carry the knife in tip-up position. Spine Jimping notches on the back of the handle increase comfort and grip. In the back of the handle an enlarged hole (lanyard hole) for pulling a lanyard or safety line.
