I know. A basic knife from Spyderco. But it's here. And it's mine.


Cool.


VG-10 (Nice)
Serrated (First one - Very nice)
FRN handle (Nice)

What a cool little knife.

It will be clipped to my pocket the next time I go out.

Or will I clip the Endura?

Or the Police?

Or one in each pocket?

I suppose if I do that, I'll need a fourth for the last pocket.

Hmmmmm. When is that Ronin coming out?
 
The delica has been around for so long and it's still selling and still satisfying people.

My next serrated knife may just have to be a blue FRN Deilca!!
 
The design is great.
I can't put it down.
And the teeth ...

Looks like it wants to chew into something right now!


Better not be my hand though.
 
wesmalo,

Your reaction sounds much like the one I had after my first experience with the Delica. I already owned about a dozen more expensive Spydereco knives when I finally got mine, but I was (and still am) very impressed with it's construction, feel, look, ability...an excellent knife. I like it so much that I think perhaps if it had been my first, I may not have bought so many others. Naaa, that's silly. But I do still end up carrying it more than most others in my carry rotation. I just can't get over the excellent value these knives represent.

I still plan to buy a blue one, one of these days.

The Delica, in SE, was my first entry into the world of the Spyder. I carried it with me everywhere, so light and comfortable for EDC that I developed a habit in checking on it to make sure that it was still with me.

It's a very cool little Spydie to have for times that a smaller blade would be more convenient for carry. :D ;) :D
 
I had the choice of blue or black. It might be that I "need" to get a blue one too.

I think that getting the Delica after buying more expensive knives makes you appreciate the classic designs more. It really must be an addition to all knife collections in my humble opinion.

And ... with people becoming more and more anti-knife, it makes a good compromise between carrying a big knife or going without. I think that it will be the smallest folding knife that I will carry. I'm not going any smaller.
 
wesmalo,

That's what I thought as well. It really is a great classic design, and I also think that my collection wouldn't have been complete without one. I really want a plain edged blue one, but my black one is of the plain edged design too and I don't know if I should buy another plain edge or get the blue version in serrated edge. I'll likely get a blue, toothy one I imagine.

All the best, and enjoy that classic design!

My FRN PE Delica proudly rides in my right front pocket as one of my EDC folders, and I can't see it being replaced with anything else, since it's so handy and sheeple-friendly.:).
 
Dann,

Mine's sitting there in the RF pocket of my "relaxing shorts" as I type this.

Cheers (I'm enjoying a cold beer as I type this too), Jeff/1911.
