Help: Leek or Delica decision....

[Mustang]

I can't decide between the two. Which one is better? I just took a look at the two at Bass Pro Shops and walked away in complete confusion! I like the speed safe action but the syperco looks more durable and robust. Oh I'm so confused

Delica is a better built blade. It will cut circles around the Leek. It has better steel, design, edge retention, and sharper.

Delica. No doubt.

 

[John Watson]

Go with the Delica. Sypderco's are great.

 

[Mustang]

Thanks, Delica it is then....

Yup, it's gotta be the Delica. I carry one (SS, PE) as part of my EDC, and it hasn't let me down yet.

Please take a look at the two reviews -

Kershaw/Ken Onion LEEK (pics)

Kershaw Rainbow Leek - a pictorial review

then decide if you really need a Leek

Comparison: Leek VS. Delica

Handles- Delica is more ergonomic and more grippy.

Weight- Delica weighs less.

Blade Stlye- Delica becuase of the belly for slicing.

Looks- Leek by a mile unless we are talking the S.S. Delica

Blade Steel- Delica, no contest.

Overall- Delica 4 Leek 1

Thank you for reading the most unscientific comparison ever, have a nice day.

So what did you end up getting?

 

[Nimravus]

Go for the Leek it's a great knife. For light duty.

Delica might be better if you need that medium duty aspect.

The Leek...but it's probably too late after all this propaganda.



The Delica is sharp as heck but the Leek's fit and finish and mechanics are superb. Feels awesome opening and the frame-lock is second only to the Sebenza in my opinion.
