    I picked up a Para 3 in Maxamet. Anyone have a blade in Maxamet with some age, patina? I’d like to see if so.

    I've got a Manix2 that's maybe a year and half old. Honestly hasn't seen a ton of use but happy to post pic if interested.

    I've got two Manix2's. Ones got a G10 handle with S110V, that one's a favorite and I've carried it a bunch. The other is the Maxamet Manix2 lightweight. That one I find a little too top heavy with the FRN scales so I haven't carried it nearly as much. I really like the axis-like lock on them.

    Thanks for the experiences. I appreciate it. I have seen some blades that have a nice patina to some that are very blotchy. I don’t care as long as it’s sharp really, but was curious.

    I am reading that diamond is the best to sharpen. Some Aluminum oxide and stones won’t “sharpen” some of the super hard particles leaving a toothy edge.

    I wanted a knife in one of these “super” steels and am happy with this one. I do carry my S30V Para 3 more. Guess this Maxamet one is my Friday night knife. lol!
