Description
Description
This Spyderco Delica 4 knife has a flat saber-ground VG-10 stainless steel blade with the Emerson Wave opening feature. The handle is blue/gray FRN.
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.

I have put this knife through the ringer and its never failed me. I carried it as a back up during a 10 month tour in Afghanistan. Just a little work on the Tri-Angle Sharpmaker when I got home, good as new. Great product.
Great Delica version

Love slipping this knife into my pocket when hard work is on my schedule. I prefer the saber grind for hard work and the Wave just makes a great design a little better. You can’t go wrong with this Delica version!
A very fun knife

I put a wisemen signet ring on this thing and it is incredibly fun. Not the best for everyday carry because the signet ring sticks out, but just the knife alone would be great. Lightweight and ergonomic. I would definitely recommend buying it, but maybe not as your first knife. Also can I get that spyderco warriorhawk?!
My favorite EDC knife

I've been carrying this knife for a year. It is my favorite EDC knife. I own three Emerson knives, but none of them fits the purpose of EDC as much as this Delica. Highly recommend it.
Impressive EDC

I bought this knife as an edc knife over carrying my yojimbo 2. I like the styling of the delica and the wave opener is awesome and is definitely a conversation piece when someone sees this knife. I've seen many knife reviews where people dont like the color of the scales but I love this blue/grey color and wish spyderco made every knife in this color!
must have

I’ve had the knife for a year, I added the wisemen company signet ring. Totally worth it.
Great version of the delica

Besides all the good and bad points of a regular delica we have these.
On the good: The wave works better than all the ones on emerson's catalog. The Blade geometry offers a strong tip and body.
On the bad: The blade definitely isnt as good of a cutter as on a regular delica.

I love this knife I carry it every day. I added a deep carry clip I think it works better with the emmerson opener. Stays sharp and can take a beating
Best of both worlds

All the quality of the Delica with the added bonus of an Emerson wave. There's a little bit of up and down play in the lock, however.
Great self defense

Great knife and easy to maintain the VG10 blade. Very light weight and smooth to open and close. One of my favorites especially for the price.
Great EDC

If your going to try a Delica why not get a bottle opener?
I did and I fell in love.

This is a great knife, it's got the wave feature so it can fill a self defense role. But it's also tough enough to handle a beater knife role as well. The vg-10 is a decent steel and can take a nice edge. On a side note the wave will open bottles which adds another useful feature for an EDC knife.
Not a smaller Endura

I've heard it called a smaller Endura. Is not. This knife is more than capable of standing on its own merit. It's sharp, and strong. I absolutely love the Emerson Wave feature. It is even better when coupled with the Wiseman Company's signet ring.
Solid Small Knife for EDC

Spyderco did not disappoint on this one. I love the feel of the handle. It is on the smaller side of the knives I own, but I love it. I am impressed with Spyderco's construction. The handle scales have great gripping ability. I love the Emerson wave feature. It makes opening the knife so much easier and faster. VG-10 steel is nice and solid. It holds an edge really well. This is a nice size for an EDC in an office environment.
Awesome knife

The knife opens right out of your pocket easier than an actual Emerson knife. It’s super light weight. I bought a signet ring for mine from wise man company and now I really like it even more.
Its not horrible but its not great either

Maintaining the edge has been no issue. Light weight and sleek design make for a great EDC. My only gripe is the lockback being relatively weak. I would not buy again, however I will continue to carry.

I bought this with the Wise Men signet. This combo by far makes the finest self defense blade. No better deployment than with the Emerson patent.
