Hard to find Delica models

[blade_runner85]

Hello,

Anyone know the best place to find rare sprint run Delica models? Specifically the super blue C11FGYE? That particular sprint run seems to be ghost, can't seem to find one anywhere.

Thanks!

Hi Blade_runner,

Best chance is the aftermarket. I’ve had good luck finding older runs on the bladeforums marketplace in the past. You will probably need to be patient. It’s always nice to have a grail on your wishlist. Maybe you’ll get lucky and find it, or maybe Spyderco will come out with something you want even more.

Personally, I’d love to have a Super Gold Delica. I’m still kicking myself for not getting a couple back when Massdrop was still doing knives. Super Blue would be fantastic too, but I kind of gave up on finding those at a price I could stomach years ago and just bought a Super Blue Santoku for the kitchen. It is probably my most used knife. That steel is a dream to sharpen and keeps a fine edge long enough to be worth the effort at higher hardnesses.

Whoops! Double post. Apologies

HAP40 is better IMO

I'm considering a hap 40 for myself.

Bento Box has the Delica in M390, K390, VToku2, HAP40, Damascus, and ZDP-189.
