I have big-ish hands (size L gloves) and I prefer the feel of the the Delica to the Native so that's something to consider. Both are fine knives, though. Have you checked out the Manix 2 Lightweight or the Endura? Thanks evan, probably should have mentioned my BIL is a real life Brutus, he can almo...

Sorry, I attempted to indicate that the FFG Delica would be thinner behind the edge than the Stretch. A reason I pointed to clarify the flat-saber vs FFG with Jeff. Great point and agreed! They are wrong per the spec sheet. http://www.spyderco.com/catalog/details.php?product=285 Sorry, never checke...

Very nice :) The ZDP-189 Delica will have a bit better edge geometry as it's thinner (2.5mm vs 3mm). You might email Jeff at CS and ask if it's the full flat ground or saber ground one though. I know he answers his phone readily too. If you have no preference don't worry. They just went to FFG as a...

I've got a Delica 4 with saber grind, and I kind of doubt that it's thinner behind the edge than the Stretch, even if the blade stock is thinner; there's a lot of steel in that primary bevel -- I know, because I thinned mine down to 20 degrees inclusive, a task which took me several hours, and crea...

Want a new Stretch, which steel ?
Hello everyone As title says i'm going to get a new Stretch, just don't know if its worth the $28 difference for ZDP over VG-10. I know thats not alot of money, just wondering if there is that much performance over the VG-10 steel. I already own 6 knives with VG-10 and i like it alot. I don't own an...

Again, thanks for everyones replies ! Ordered a Sage1 last night from the Cutlery Shoppe. BTW, Jeff told me the CF Caly3 (was) his EDC until he got his hands on a Sage1. I think something may be wrong with me, i haven't even received my Sage and i'm already plotting my next purchase. Pretty sure i'm...

Thanks everyone for your input ! I pretty much have decided on the Sage1. I have one question.........i assume the ZDP steel is different on the Delica4 FFG then the laminated ZDP on the Caly3, is one better/worst than the other ? rodloos commented earlier about the Caly3 blade scratching easy. The ...

Sage 1 or Caly 3 ZDP
New knife time again and this time i want something a little larger than my Chaparral and a little lighter than my Native 5. These two knives, especially the Sage 1 really stands out to me. I know the N5 is only 3.7 oz and really isn't that heavy, just want something that feels a little lighter/smal...

Thanks Kardinal, if i don't that will be fine. I don't have any sprints at this time and i have really been eyeing the Massad Ayoob as maybe my next purchase ? And Jack, i'm glad that made sense to you, i knew i would probably get blasted for making a comparsion between the Chaparral and the Sage 1....
