The Manix 2 XL is a larger, even more capable expression of Spyderco's iconic Manix 2 design. It includes a textured index-finger choil and thumb ramp to allow a forward ,choked-up, grip for enhanced control. The blade is supported by Spyderco's Ball Bearing Lock mechanism, which complements the knife's fully accessible Trademark Round Hole and reversible tip-up pocket clip to make every aspect of its carry, deployment, and operation completely ambidextrous. The Manix 2 XL's handle is built on a foundation of full, skeletonized stainless steel liners and peel-ply-textured G-10 scales. They are joined by stainless steel standoffs and a stainless backspacer that reinforces its high-strength lock mechanism.
