Want a Spyderco knife, torn between the Paramilitary 2 and Manix 2.
I've heard all kinds of people talking about how great the PM2's edge is and how great the lock is. But it allegedly has kind of a weak tip and that REALLY concerns me because I beat the absolute shit outta my knives, which leads me to considering the Manix. Haven't heard a single thing bad about it, but also haven't seen as many rave reviews. Plus, it's also cheaper which for some stupid-ass reason is registering in my mind as a negative.

Only knife I ever do that shit with is my Benchmade Adamas, but I've heard people breaking them by dropping them on a hard surface and by simply stabbing stuff and shit

Does this happen to a lot of people, more so than any other knife? The Buck 110 has been around for 50+ years and this is the first I'm hearing of this.
The manix is a godsend trust me, its fucking awesome. I have the whole collection
My buddy has the pm2 and civilian and I may have accidentally fucked up the tip on the pm2 from stabbing it in to a table like a retard. I bought myself a tenacious recently and love it. Only a little smaller than the pm2

I have the PM2 and a buddy has the Tenacious, I have to say that it is a really nice knife as well and like half the price. I'm thinking about picking one up.
They are both great knives but the PM II has the best lock on the market and I would probably just go with it.

What is the whole collection, just curious? The PM II, Manix and what else?
If you have the money, just get both and try them out. You shouldn't have a problem selling the other one on the secondary market, meaning you'll lose 20-30 dollars at most).
