Compensated Lock Backspacer for Spyderco Manix 2
Compensated Lock Backspacer for Spyderco Manix 2
Couldn't load pickup availability
Have you ever wanted to use your Spyderco Manix 2 Lightweight blade in aftermarket or stock G10 scales? Yeah, me too.
I am not a fan of the plastic lightweight scales but wanted my favorite knife in a variety of steels. Until now, you'd have to buy another stock G10 Manix and be left with a pile of extra parts.
Machined from 303 stainless steel, this modified version of the lock backspacer compensates for the small differences between the lightweight and regular Manix 2 blades - ensuring proper lock functionality.
Disclaimer: This spacer will not work with standard Manix 2 blades. Only lightweight blades with G10 and aftermarket scales such as AWT and RSD scales.
If for any reason this does not work for you, contact me and I will replace it free of charge with one tested using my own scales.
Features:
- Compensated for small differences in the lightweight blade to ensure proper lockup and functionality in aftermarket and stock g10 Manix 2 scales.
- Finish quality on par with stock back spacer - more attention is paid to the exposed parts of the part. The sides will have residual machining marks but are covered once installed and do not impede with functionality.
- Satin or stonewashed finish (more to come!)

#1 Manix 2 Light Weight Mod.
The backspacer fit perfect. Shipment was super fast.
Got a little stuck on the installation, seller guided me through the process and was super helpful. Really appreciate the help. Thank you again.
The backspacer works as advertised - it allowed me to use a lightweight Manix 2 blade (Manix 2 ltwt Salt magnacut) with a Ti scale set (Rockscale Design). The outcome is a smooth and perfect knife! Only wish would be finish choices for the backspacer.
No issues whatsoever. Worked great with Rockscale design scales. Will order again!
Was scratching my head on how I was going to put Chris’s Boba Fett scales on my Manix 2 LW when I saw this. Great quality as always. Buy with confidence!
