I ordered a stainless Cricket and a carbon fiber Delica on sunday night from newgrahm.com. I recieved them both today and I am very impressed with the quality of both knives.

The CF Delica is a very sturdy little knife. I have been unsucessfully looking for a G10 Delica and this fits the bill. It has a steel liner on just one side. This makes the knife quite thin. The Boye dent is a nice option on the compression lock that keeps me from accidentally unlocking the blade while squeezing the handle. Scary sharp too.

The stainless Cricket a lot thinner than I expected. It has a very thin frame lock system that worries me because I think the steel liner might loose its spring. If I am wrong, this little knife is perfect. It very smoth and easy to open not to mention very sharp.

To sum it up I am quite happy with my latest purchaces. I would recommend these knives to anyone remotely interested.

I thought the steel might be too thin too but I think it's thicker than the liner lock in the zytel and I've used one pretty hard and the liner still has lots of spring. I'll give this one the benefit of the doubt. The locks are really tight and IMHO framelocks are stronger all the way around than liner locks....
