Features: This Spyderco Delica 4 knife has a lightweight black FRN handle and a full-flat ground VG-10 stainless steel blade in a wharncliffe style with a plain cutting edge. The blade on the Delica is premium VG-10 stainless steel from Seki-City Japan in a wharncliffe style with a perfectly straight cutting edge. 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.
