Question about the ZDP-189 Endura

BadLlama · Feb 10, 2016

Hi guys, I bought an Endura in a light blue handle color with a blade stamped ZDP-189. Couldn't find much online about one like it. Maybe someone stuck the blue handle on what used to be a BRG one?

Anyone know what the hell I'm talking about?

no pictures yet, it's still in the mail, sorry.

thanks!

Blue was the original color for the Zdp189 knives. Switched to British racing green later on.

Oh cool, thank you! I couldn't find a single mention of one online - glad I came here.

I think that was only for the Stretch... not sure though.

Delica was like that...

Either way it's a legit color and it's rare.

Spydiewiki lists a sabre ground sprint Delica in ZDP and blue frn, but there is no listing for an Endura in this particular combo...

BadLlama, is your blade flat ground, or sabre? if its flat, my bet is that is a Frankendura....

You're right my bad

Really-- they didn't do a blue ZDP Endura?

Spydergirl88 · Feb 11, 2016

I couldn't find anything on it

I am unaware of a ZDP Endura that was blue. Can we get a pick? Maybe someone swapped a Super Blue blade and ZDP blade and kept the Super Blue with the BRG handle.
