Product Description
The Manix 2 Lightweight Salt C101PYL2 combines the time-tested features of Spyderco's Manix 2 with a full-flat-ground CPM MagnaCut blade and ultra-corrosion-resistant handle hardware, built for use in and around the water. Its vibrant yellow handle is easy to spot on a boat deck or in a gear bag.
CPM MagnaCut is a powder metallurgy stainless steel from Crucible Industries, designed to combine edge retention, toughness, and very high corrosion resistance, a mix that's hard to find in one steel. It resists rust from salt water, sweat, and humidity while holding a working edge. The 0.125" blade is full-flat ground with a satin finish for clean slicing through line, rope, and food.
- Blade: 3.37" CPM MagnaCut blade with a 2.88" PlainEdge, full-flat grind, satin finish, 0.125" thick.
- Handle: Yellow injection-molded fiberglass-reinforced co-polymer (FRCP) with Spyderco's Bi-Directional Texture for a secure grip in wet conditions; ultra-corrosion-resistant hardware; 4.66" closed, 2.8 oz.
- Deployment + Lock: Fully accessible Spyderco Trademark Round Hole for one-handed opening with either hand; a Ball Bearing Lock that left- and right-handed users can release the same way.
- Carry: Reversible wire clip for tip-up carry on the right or left side; 8.00" overall.
Ideal for: anglers, boaters, and kayakers who want a light, full-size folder built for salt water; ambidextrous users who want a lock that works the same in either hand; and anyone who wants a high-visibility knife that's easy to spot.
The Spyderco Manix 2 Lightweight Salt in CPM MagnaCut with yellow FRCP (C101PYL2) ships same or next business day from Columbia, Louisiana. Knifeworks is an authorized Spyderco dealer.
Spyderco Manix 2 Lightweight Salt: Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the most common questions about the Spyderco Manix 2 Lightweight Salt (C101PYL2).
What lock does the Spyderco Manix 2 Lightweight Salt C101PYL2 use?＋
The Manix 2 Lightweight Salt uses Spyderco's Ball Bearing Lock. When the blade opens, a spring-loaded ball bearing moves into place between the blade tang and the stop pin, wedging the blade securely open. To close, pull back the bearing's release tab on the spine of the handle and fold the blade, keeping your fingers clear of the edge. The lock works the same for left- and right-handed users.
What is FRCP, and why is it used on this knife?＋
FRCP is fiberglass-reinforced co-polymer, a light, tough, injection-molded handle material. On the Manix 2 Lightweight Salt, it keeps the knife at 2.8 ounces, holds up well to water, and carries Spyderco's Bi-Directional Texture for a secure grip in wet conditions. The vibrant yellow color makes the knife easy to spot.
What makes the Manix 2 Lightweight Salt good for salt water?＋
Spyderco's Salt Series uses highly corrosion-resistant materials throughout. This knife pairs a CPM MagnaCut blade with ultra-corrosion-resistant handle hardware in an FRCP handle. Rinse the knife with fresh water and dry it after salt exposure to keep it in top condition.
What is CPM MagnaCut steel?＋
CPM MagnaCut is a powder metallurgy stainless steel from Crucible Industries, designed to balance edge retention, toughness, and very high corrosion resistance. It holds a working edge through daily use and resists rust from salt water and humidity, which makes it a strong fit for the Salt Series.

The C101PYL2 ships as a knife with its reversible wire clip installed. It is knife only, with no sheath included. Packaging and included items are set by Spyderco and are subject to change.
