Just got my first delica

#1

Post by northern munkey »

Having had a UKPK dp sabre for a little while I found the need for a locker, so I got a meadowlark 2 frn but hated the build quality ( lots of movement in lock up/vertical play).
So I bought a delica wave.....WOW is all I can say great steel and ergos(thought I would miss a choil) will be a fave edc when out on my MTB or going for a hike.

The delica was my second Spydie, and still is one of my favorites. I have a Superleaf that is just plain fun to carry, but a bit large in the pocket. I really like the Delica as an EDC. Great blade.

Congrats on the new Delica, macatac! May it serve you well. :) Now all you have to do is buy a Dragonfly Salt and you'll be all set. ;)

Whoops! Just now caught my blunder: the OP was from northern munkey, not macatac. Sorry about that, northern munkey. :o As for the D'fly H1, I think you'll love it! I just saw a few yesterday on the 'bay for about $46 or so (either in PE and SE). I have the PE version and absolutely can't live without it. I've been thinking about getting the ZDP-189 version here lately, but we'll see. ;)

Your first Delica is a WAVE?! You're way ahead of the game! :)
