Spyderco Manix 2 XL – 3.85" Folding Knife, Plain Edge, Satin CPM S30V Blade / Black Textured G-10 (C95GP2)
Model: C95GP2 • Blade Steel: CPM S30V (satin) • Blade Length: 3.85" (approx.) • Edge: Plain • Handle: Black textured G-10 • Lock: Caged Ball Bearing Lock (CBBL) • Clip: Reversible tip-up pocket clip • UPC: 716104008353
When you want the cutting performance and control of a full-size folder without carrying a fixed blade, the Spyderco Manix 2 XL (C95GP2) delivers. With a broad, 3.85" CPM S30V blade in a fine satin finish and a hand-filling G-10 handle, this flagship workhorse balances power, precision, and safety. The ambidextrous Caged Ball Bearing Lock gives a rock-solid, play-free lockup with a glassy-smooth action, while the signature Spyderco Round Hole makes one-hand opening intuitive—gloves or no gloves, right or left hand.
Why the Manix 2 XL Stands Out
Premium CPM S30V blade steel: Particle metallurgy stainless formulated for edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness—ideal for daily cutting, backcountry tasks, and professional use.
Full-size cutting performance: The long, bellied profile and high flat grind provide excellent slicing with plenty of tip control for detail work.
Caged Ball Bearing Lock (CBBL): Ambidextrous, self-adjusting lock with stout engagement and a silky, reliable closing stroke.
Confident ergonomics: A black textured G-10 handle and pronounced choil/jimping create a locked-in grip in wet, sweaty, or gloved conditions.
True ambidexterity: Trademark Round Hole opener, reversible tip-up clip, and symmetrical lock make it equally at home in right or left pocket.
Built to work: Open-back construction for easy cleaning, robust hardware, and purpose-cut traction patterns to handle hard days without drama.

Collection-worthy: Classic Spyderco lines, premium steel, and proven mechanics make this model a staple.
Ergonomics & Use

Secure traction: G-10 texture and a palm-swell profile offer hot-spot-free control over long sessions.
Field-serviceable: Open-back layout sheds pocket lint and grit; rinse, dry, and go.
Care & Maintenance
Sharpening: S30V loves ceramic rods and quality diamond stones—touch up regularly to keep a screaming edge.
Cleaning: A drop of light oil at the pivot and lock interface keeps action smooth; blow out debris as needed.
