0,00 €Spyderco Manix 2 Salt Yellow / Black G10, Satin Crucible CPM MagnaCut by Eric Glesser – a corrosion-resistant EDC folding knife with a Ball Bearing Lock™
The Spyderco Manix 2 Salt C101GBKYLMCP2 is a folding knife designed by Eric Glesser, created for everyday use even in humid environments and near water. The model features a blade made of Crucible CPM MagnaCut steel, a two-tone G10 handle, and a Ball Bearing Lock™ that can be operated from either side.
The distinctive blade, featuring a Leaf Shape / Drop Point profile, has a full flat grind and a satin finish. The Thumb Hole opening mechanism, reversible tip-up clip, large lanyard hole, and Caribbean Bi-Directional Texture™ create a functional EDC folder designed for heavy-duty use.
Crucible CPM MagnaCut – steel with high corrosion resistance
The blade is made of Crucible CPM MagnaCut steel with a hardness of 60–62 HRC. This is a stainless powder steel that combines high corrosion resistance, good toughness, and cutting edge stability. These properties align well with the design philosophy of the Salt® series, which is intended for use in humid environments.
Leaf Shape / Drop Point and Full Flat Grind
The blade profile combines Spyderco’s signature Leaf Shape with the functional geometry of the Drop Point. The full flat grind ensures smooth glide through material, while the satin finish gives the blade a clean, technical look.
Yellow / Black G10 and Ball Bearing Lock™
The handle is made of layered G10 in Yellow / Black. The Caribbean Bi-Directional Texture™ milling pattern improves grip and reveals contrasting yellow layers of the material. Skeletonized steel liners reinforce the construction, and the Ball Bearing Lock™ allows the knife to be operated with either the right or left hand.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I care for and sharpen Crucible CPM MagnaCut steel?
After use, clean the blade and dry it thoroughly. After contact with seawater, rinse the knife with fresh water, dry it, and periodically maintain the mechanism. Diamond stones, high-quality ceramic, or a sharpening guide system work well for sharpening the MagnaCut.
How does the Ball Bearing Lock™ work?
The Ball Bearing Lock™ uses a ball bearing to lock the blade in the open position. The mechanism can be operated from either side, making it convenient for both right- and left-handed users.
What sets the Spyderco Salt® series apart?
The Salt® series uses materials selected for enhanced corrosion resistance. The model performs well in humid environments, but still requires basic cleaning and maintenance.
What does Caribbean Bi-Directional Texture™ offer?
Caribbean Bi-Directional Texture™ is a two-way texture milled into the G10 grips. It increases the grip of the handle and reveals contrasting yellow layers of material.
What does a tip-up clip mean?
A tip-up configuration means that when the knife is closed, the tip of the blade points upward. On this model, the clip can be moved to either the right or left side of the Handle.
