My first Spyderco just arrived!

[ostanley99]

As soon as I get some zip ties, I'm putting them on this thing. A little bigger than I expected though. It came sharp enough to slice through paper with no tears

Fine choice sir.

You can feel the love for the Delica in this thread:

Looking good. Not only is the VG-10 sharp, but that green is sharp too.
I like a short lanyard on mine. About a inch or so long.

What does the lanyard do?

Nice-looking knife you got there!

Enjoy it in good health

Nothing really.

And so it begins!....

Yup...you're doomed. I'll warn you now about EWS (Empty Wallet Syndrome), it's a common ailment than one can catch after acquiring any Spyderco product. They're all proven to be a leading cause of EWS...thought I'd warn you now, though it's probably already progressed to an incurable state, even if you don't yet realise it.

Are you referring to the dozens of spydies I'll end up getting over the next year?

I use a lanyard to pull the knife. It's very handy... sorry bad pun. They actually work quite well and it's the reason I prefer tip up.

 

[Gizler00]

Love it man.

 

[AlwaysTomboy]

I'm a sucker for anything thing green and that is a great shade of green there. Super choice, both the knife and color. :thumbup:

Yep!

If it is braided 550 paracord you can unravel it when you need a short piece of rope to tie something down or back together. Very strong stuff but you probably already know that.

A chance to add an individual touch to your knife to make it one of a kind and all like that.

I don't use lanyards but I have a paracord bracelet in my EDC somewhere. I put it on if I might fall in a creek and be swept way and have to survive in the wild . . . well perhaps I jest . . . but handy stuff. Fun to braid and screw around with.

 

[ostanley99]

Yep!

I'm going to be broke, aren't I?

 

[Gizler00]

I'm going to be broke, aren't I?

Yes! 😈

 

[ostanley99]

With everything said, this thing rides almost TOO well in my pocket. I keep forgetting it's there

Congrats on a nice knife. Yes you are going to be broke. I fell into this rabbit hole earlier this year and can't stop researching my next purchase. Enjoy the ride and look for a 2nd job.

I love my Delica 4. Grey frn with ffg. It disappears in my pocket. And when I go running, I clip it to the waistband of my athletic shorts and I end up forgetting its there! Can take some heavy use for how light it is.
