Product Description
The Manix 2 Salt C101GMCBKP2 is the all-black version of Spyderco's Manix 2 in the Salt Series, built with highly corrosion-resistant materials for use in and around the water. A black DLC-coated CPM MagnaCut blade pairs with black G-10 scales and black-coated, corrosion-resistant liners, clip, and hardware.
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" drop point blade is full-flat ground for clean slicing, and a black Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating adds a hard, non-reflective surface layer on top of the steel's own corrosion resistance.
- Blade: 3.37" CPM MagnaCut drop point with a 2.88" PlainEdge, full-flat grind, black DLC coating, 0.125" thick.
- Handle: Black G-10 scales, peel-ply-textured and machined with Spyderco's Caribbean Bi-Directional Texture, over full skeletonized liners; black-coated, corrosion-resistant liners and hardware; 4.66" closed, 4.2 oz.
- Deployment + Lock: Spyderco Trademark Round Hole for one-handed opening with either hand; a high-strength Ball Bearing Lock that left- and right-handed users can release the same way.
- Carry: Black reversible pocket clip for tip-up carry on the right or left side, plus a generously sized lanyard hole for tethered carry; 8.00" overall.
Ideal for: anglers and boaters who prefer a low-glare, all-black folder built for salt water; tactical and law enforcement users who carry in coastal environments; and ambidextrous users who want a lock that works the same in either hand.
The Spyderco Manix 2 Salt in black DLC CPM MagnaCut with black G-10 (C101GMCBKP2) ships same or next business day from Columbia, Louisiana. Knifeworks is an authorized Spyderco dealer.
Spyderco Manix 2 Salt: Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the most common questions about the Spyderco Manix 2 Salt (C101GMCBKP2).
What lock does the Spyderco Manix 2 Salt C101GMCBKP2 use?+
The Manix 2 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 makes the Manix 2 Salt good for salt water?+
Spyderco's Salt Series uses highly corrosion-resistant materials throughout. On this all-black version, the CPM MagnaCut blade has a black DLC coating, and the liners, pocket clip, and hardware are also made from corrosion-resistant materials with black coatings. Rinse the knife with fresh water and dry it after salt exposure to keep it in top condition.
What is CPM MagnaCut steel, and what does the black DLC coating do?+
CPM MagnaCut is a powder metallurgy stainless steel from Crucible Industries, designed to balance edge retention, toughness, and very high corrosion resistance. The black Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating gives the blade a non-reflective finish and adds a hard surface layer over the steel.
How does this version compare to the black and yellow Manix 2 Salt?+
Both versions share the same CPM MagnaCut full-flat ground blade, Ball Bearing Lock, and Caribbean Bi-Directional Texture. The C101GMCBKP2 has a black DLC blade, black G-10, and black-coated hardware for a low-glare look. The C101GBKYLMCP2 has a satin blade and two-tone black and yellow G-10 for visibility on the water.
What comes with the Manix 2 Salt C101GMCBKP2?+
The C101GMCBKP2 ships as a knife with its reversible pocket clip installed. It is knife only, with no sheath or lanyard included. Packaging and included items are set by Spyderco and are subject to change.
