SpydercoDelica 4 Lightweight Signature Knife with 2.9" Saber-Grind Steel Blade and High-Strength FRN Handle - CombinationEdge - C11PSBK

Bottom line - this is my third Spyderco knife, and they make a high quality, long lasting and durable product. I have never had an issue with their knives.I bought the model with the Combo Edge and Black FRN handle. The Delica comes in MANY configurations. I bought this model as it was the lightest Delica I could find at 2.5oz, and it has a clip on the side for clipping on your pocket or belt loop. I typically clip in on my pocket with the knife inside my pocket still - decreases the chances I will lose it!This knife, like all my other Spyderco VG-10's, holds an edge well. Please note, however, these are a little more difficult to sharpen than most knives with softer steel - so pay attention to that and use only good tools for sharpening. The VG-10 is not as forgiving when sharpening, and screw ups are harder to fix!!Note that when I bought this here on Amazon about 9 months ago, the description said AUS-6 steel for this knife. This description was wrong, the steel on this knife is the higher quality VG-10 steel. (it holds an edge longer and is harder than AUS-6). I knew it was VG-10 when I bought it, I have two other VG-10 knives and prefer them.I chuckled when I came back to write this review, and see the description STILL SAYS AUS-6!! I know Amazon has been contacted to change it, but I guess they need more time! ;-) Amazon seems to have a hard time getting the descriptions correct on Spyderco, and matched up with the right knives. Keep that in mind, and verify what is written with a known source.Overall five stars - love Spyderco, would buy again and would recommend this knife for those looking for a small, lightweight powerhouse with a good blade, and one that will last a long time.

Great knife well made sharpe perfect gift for someone and great for EDC

Absolute beast of a knife. High quality, durable, easy to sharpen, and everything a knife owner could want.

I have to replace the one I either lost or misplaced. I had that one for over a decade and it still got a lot of use. I'm a trucker and I've used it for some fairly tough items, but generally to do things like cut off metal seals, and open boxes or such. It's good tough steel and the serrated edge cuts through many things with little or no problem, and retains it's sharp edge for quite a while before having to sharpen it again.This is a tough little knife and yet is extremely light. It also has a tough handle that is easy to grip...especially when pulling the knife out to sling the blade open with one hand. With just a little practice this knife opens as quick or quicker than a switch blade knife. Which is something I've got down to a second from pocket to open and out front...basically for protection....We go to some seedy areas in trucking sometimes. Anyway it's a good little knife that I have no problem buying again....Buyer beware though. I got the knife and discovered this was a three inch blade instead of the four inch. It's still a nice little knife, but the bigger blade is a tougher tool. This size is really great for clipping into your pants pocket. It's so thin and light that you never feel itexcept when going into the pocket.

I have the bigger version which I carry more but for wearing gym shorts this little guy is perfect! Light weight and feels good in the hand

Very sharp and durable spyderco knife. Nice every day carry knife, not too big and very light. Very satisfied with purchase and would purchase again from this seller

Loves these knives - have three of them

While the quality is there I was surprised at the ergonomics of the Spyderco Delica, when it comes to one handed opening. For a one handed thumb activated knife using only your thumb in the thumb hole, it is surprisingly hard to open this knife. In fact because it is so tightly held, the blade is almost impossible to deploy. Compared to Buck knife I purchased years ago at half the price, this blade deployment is less than what I would have expected.The knife itself is of good quality and it is very light in weight. The blade while sharp and sharper than similar Bucks knife it is not razor sharp like Kershaw knives in the same price range. Overall I give it 3 stars.
