Compensated Lock Backspacer for Spyderco Manix 2
Compensated Lock Backspacer for Spyderco Manix 2
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!)

This backspacer allowed me to swap out my Manix 2 S30V blade with the Magnacut blade from my Lightweight Salt. Works perfectly.
In point since day one he started making these. I know as I be now purchased a minimum of 6 and all have been perfect fit & proper action for the ball bearing to ride along. Thank you for doing this for us Spyderco Manix 2 nerds.
Perfect transaction
I’m very grateful for this now I can upgrade my knife. Thank you!
Perfect. It was shipped with the quickness. Highly recommended.
