Massdrop Supergold Endura or Delica?

I just got mine today and now i'm wondering is this knife a user or a safe keeper? :confused:

I got the Endura version, and never again will I think people are overreacting when they talk about how easily SUS410 scratches. I went to wipe off some fingerprints with a soft cloth, and scratched the heck out of the blade. Then I noticed I had left marks with my thumbnail when I was checking for a burr on the edge.

In the end, I didn't fall in love with it, and it's currently up for sale on another forum.

I know (from experience) the cladding is soft but I have several knives with it and they've never scratched that easily. I haven't really used my SG Delica yet so maybe it's even softer than normal? Regardless, I know the cladding is going to scratch so I just use them and don't worry about it.

Depends on how you define scratches. I cut cardbaord with zdp 189 Delica, resulting in lots of hairline scratches.

I'm sure my thumbnail was probably dirty, but man. I just didn't realize how easily this stuff would mark up.
