Three EDC Blades: Delica 4 - Mini grip 556 - Kershaw 1740

It would be a dogfight between the Delica and Mini Grip for me. From there, it's really a Ford vs. Chevy thing. I love the extra bit of blade length with the Mini Grip, but do find the handle to be a bit cramped. On the other hand, I wish the Delica maximized the blade length, but really like the handle. And to be honest, I've never felt "under-bladed" with the Delica, but have wished for more handle length with the BM. Right now, a FFG Delica is my EDC, but if BM ever comes out with a G10 handled Mini Grip(not a Wilkins version), the dogfight might start again:D
I know Kershaws are supposed to be pretty awesome as well, but their designs leave me cold.

As you suggest, it would be also nice to try the 555 Minigrip that has a spyderhole and a sheepsfoot bladeshape plus hollowground (that I hadn't noticed).

Or even, as Dekz suggested, the Kershaw RAM.

What kind of steel in that 555 minigrip? Sweet looking knife.
 
That is a great design on the 555. :thumbup:

Reminds me of the Kershaw /Ken Onion original Random Task which is an all-time sweet design.
 
I've carried the Delica, a Griptillian 550 (not the mini) and a Kershaw leek. IMO the Delica is much better than the other two as an EDC tool. The Benchmade and Kershaw are both great knives but if I had to keep one in would be the Spyderco.
