The Lightweight Manix 2 models feature a "unibody" plastic handle with two pins on the pocket clip side and two screws on the opposite side to secure the handles together. In contrast, the G10 version predominantly uses metal components and is assembled with screws instead of pins, facilitating easy swapping of custom scales, unlike the Lightweight version. You will need a good torx bit set to remove the screws and pivots. The pivot can be tough to remove if you don't know what you are doing. There are small parts on the Para 2.
Titanium metal is a very durable metal because it is corrosion-resistant: sea water, aqua regia, and chlorine. It is 40% lighter than steel but as strong as high-strength steel.
Titanium finds applications in things like aerospace and surgical applications. Titanium is a chemical element with the symbol Ti and atomic number 22. It is a lustrous transition metal with a silver color. ANODIZING / HEAT ANO ENGRAVING is not a scientific process; it's done by hand and colors may slightly vary. Your order will be unique and will not look exactly like the one on the pictures. Patterns and colors may slightly vary. I hope you will enjoy my creation. INSTALL: You can also request the scales to be installed on Factory Knife as a custom order. Just send me a message. PRECISION: Each MetonBoss item is precision CNC machined from a solid billet in my Anaheim manufacturing facility in California, USA. Even though most of them are in stock, some are only in machined form, so they still need to be finished to your order specifics - such as color treatment, patterns, etc. As there are thousands of variations you can select in my shop. If you need any item urgently, please ask me before ordering to be sure. Thank you and happy shopping, Sean.
