Spyderco Delica. Love these little guys.

These BGM Regrind Delicas made me a huge advocate of these lockbacks. Actually appreciate the manual effort to open these.


Added one more. A Cruwear Delica also on BGM Regrind.

Are they retempered after the grind process??

[navman]

If they are kept cool enough, retempering is not needed.

Yeah. BGM/ John a custom knife maker insures the integrity is not altered

Looks like the one was modeled on the SpyOpera?

That was the inspiration for sure. But it actually is a Delica Emerson with wave chopped off.

That was the blade before

Are they BBB thin?

They had the full flat ground job done. I do not know the BBB acronym ?

The Delica is a favorite of mine.
Can’t seem to carry them enough, I’m looking forward to acquiring another in a few days.

That a nice one. I need another Delica too. Holding off for someone to offer a magnacut variant

I’m going for the super blue on the 2nd.
The df in the super blue has been excellent !

I like the Delica but I just picked up an Endela Exclusive. Havent used it yet but fits my hand good and the color combo is really nice, same as S Scar posted

I am a fan of the Delica. The modification to the handle shape that Sal did going from the 3 to the 4 makes a surprising difference in the amount of space . Great combination of a small usefully shaped blade with a hand-friendly handle. But I prefer the saber ground models.

Wish they'd bring it back in zdp-189.

Just lost mine. I had it for about 16 years so I was pretty bummed. It had been reground once and was due for another one. It had also had the tip reshaped and the blade kick ground down twice to lower the tip into the handle and prevent cuts. I’m leaning toward an orange scale, flat ground version.

Yeah. I’ll be first in mine if it’s offered again

Got my replacement for my aging Delica. I went by a LGS and grabbed a flat ground Delica with the orange handle. My old version was saber ground. I am pleasantly surprised how thinly it is ground. We’ll see how it holds up.

And now a Cruwear Delica to join the team. Also sporting a BGM Regrind
