Folding Knives Descriptions

Spyderco Delica

This Spyderco Delica 4 knife has an orange FRN handle and a full-flat ground VG-10 stainless steel blade that is satin finished with a plain cutting edge.The blade on the Delica is premium VG-10 stainless steel from Seki-City Japan and features spine jimping that extends from the ramp to the top of the handle. The Spyderco original thumb hole on the blade allows ambidextrous one-hand opening for right or left handers and the phOSPhor bronze washers at the pivot make the blade action smooth. The Delica has a lightweight FRN (fiberglass reinforced nylon) handle with skeletonized stainless steel liners and a strong back lock mechanism. The handle features screw construction for quick, simple cleaning and adjustment. The FRN scales utilize Spyderco's patented Bi-Directional Texturing to keep your hand from slipping under pressure. The pocket clip is 4-way reversible for tip-up/down and left/right carry.The Delica is a smaller version of the Spyderco Endura knife. Both Knives have been extremely popular over the yeARS thanks to their lightweight, high performance build and afFordable price.
