Delica/Endura with Choil & Wire clip

[uofaengr]

I think the Delica is a great tool for what it is, as it is. A choil would just possibly further reduce the cutting edge. The choils are something that I'm wishy washy about, and is actually one of the things that turns me away from the Native5. For it's size, it has a small cutting edge, and that was the first thing I noticed when I held one. The Delica has a smaller blade (2.875") than the Native (3"), but the Delica has more cutting edge...Delica's blade is 89% cutting edge while the Native's is roughly 82%. We're splitting hairs here (no pun intended), but it is what it is.

Sal already addressed this in a previous thread I started:

personally I would like a choil option and wire clip on the delica, here where I live the Caly 3 costs 1.5 times more so it's not really an option. Maybe Spyderco could make a sprint run to test the market reaction, I would definitely buy one.

Maybe a g10 sprint would be possible, but frn definitely wouldn't be worth it due to cost. The molds are a huge initial cost, and adding a choil would require a new mold.
