I'm looking around for a Spyderco.
Now I'm looking at a Delica or a Endura.
What are the pro's and cons off both?
Thanks:D
 
I have to say delica... it is an awesome little knife to me whereas endura i am sending off this morning.
 
I prefer the Delica as well, but it really depends on what blade length suits YOU better.
 
The Delica is a bit better for discrete carry. I find the Endura great for camping/fishing/outdoor work, but its a bit too big for EDC. YMMV.

I am gonna carry it as EDC
But when I'm going outdoors I wanna use it to
I think I'm going with the Delica
 
If you like or are into smaller knives get the Delica, just the opposite with the Endura.

What are you going to use the knife for ? That makes a difference on which model you get. I started out witha Delica, didn't use it that much.

Just the opposite with the Endura. I really liked it a lot when I first got into knives. I got the zdp version.

If you have big or bigger hands,like I do, the Delica handle probably isn't going to be big/long enough for you. Again just the opposite with the Endura.

The cutting edge, not blade length, is going to be about 2.6 on the Delica and 3.6 on the Endura.

Hope this helps with your decision.

I like big knives.:D
 
I say endura its pretty much the same knife only bigger. It is easier to make a big knife do small things, than it is to make a small knife do big things. Just my .02
 
Endura is too big for ME to EDC but many people do, especially in the back pocket. It's pretty long but also quite flat so it packs pretty well for it's size, rather like the military only more so. If you get the version with the wave feature (licensed from Emerson) that adds quite a bit to the size in pocket.
 
Endura is my choice. The size is good for me, and it takes up no pocket space, as I carry it in a horizontal belt sheath at 5 o'clock on my belt.
 
My D & R.
That Delica is new... the detente has the force of a mouse trap! :eek:

I like the endura best overall, but I think the delica is better for smaller utility tasks around sheeple.
