Gratzee!^
I love getting a Spyderco knife. I open the box and... PERFECTION.

Been carrying mine for the past 2 weeks. Couldn't see myself without one.

That's my kind of clip! I too joined the clipless club long ago, having knives ride along in my right front pocket vertically alongside wallet, and dealing with it tipping horizontally. Looked at commercial pocket organizers in the past and they seem too bulky. For some reason hadn't thought of just making one! Simple, thin fabric, a few vertical seperators... You good Sir are an inspiration! Lol
But if I were to use a clip it would be the standard one. I like the slightly more "discreet ness" of the wire clip, but it really does feel (and look) cheap and bendy.

Yep, had to take matters into my own hands. Couldn't be more pleased with it and knives feel so much better in hand without the clip.
 
Love my newly acquired Delica what a great knife . Simplicity at its finest [emoji106]🏻

 
I like both hourglass and wire clips. The wire clips are a bit more discreet.

I have not had a wire clip bend on me yet, but we'll see.

There's not much Spyderco does so far that I don't like. :cool:
 
Every time I get bored, I want to buy a new knife, and then I take out one of my Delicas and decide the new knife I need is a new Delica. LOL!

Yes, Jessero, I agree. 1000's of $ later and I still can find no better knife for every day use than the Delica.

A short time back, I went into my knife drawer and pulled out my Para Military and said, I'm going to carry a Spyderco from now on.
 
The Delica, a $60 knife (along with the Military), has led me to rethink my entire knife owning philosophy. That says something about these knives. I look at a couple knives 6 and 7 times the cost and think, "Why do I need you?"
 
My first Spyderco was a PE Delica in AUS-8, with the integral molded clip, bought back around November 1997. Throughout the years, I've carried and used various Delicas off and on. Sometimes I've gotten away from carrying/using them for a good while. But I seem to come back at some point. Currently, I've been EDCing either my brown FFG D4 in VG-10, or my SS PE Delica in VG-10.

Dear Sal,
In the spirit of this thread please consider making all clips interchangeable.

Thanks!
One loyal fan.
