I wish walmarts here had them. There's a knife store sort of near me but it's a long drive. And it's dangerous..to the wallet. I went in there looking for another Delioia today and walked out with a Para 3. Ouch! I do like the Ambitious a lot though and the fit and finish is quite nice. Spydercos so...

Para 3, just got it,

I must be in the minority here but for the Delica I love the liners. Maybe offer linerless and liner'ed? Or a single metal peice on each side that loops around but is completely open in the middle rather than just drilled out? I also think the clip is perfect... i can always polish it if I don't lik...

If I only had money enough, and time...

Ambitious here. Used it to cut a substantial amount of cardboard this morning.

I hope this doesn't peg me as as @ss, but I kinda thought the OP meant the title of the post in jest. That said I never lend tools that are poorly maintained, nor would I blame the lend-ee, but as stated I assumed the issue was unawareness of knife maintenance not overt sexism. My bad if I was wrong...

Well it's still like a 40 min drive, but I love being able to check em out in person, youtube videos can't tell you how something feels...

Nothing fancy here... Delica4 and old Zodiac...

Thanks for the replies, sorry if I missed anything I'm kinda new here.

What would be kicking is if they made a knife with that size and blade shape but with VG-10 and a compression lock...

Well it's like this... a while ago got a Benchmade Northfork folding "hunt series" as "the perfect one knife". It was a great EDC, just under 3 inch blade, s30v steel, light, smooth as butter. But.... so expensive I was scared to carry it. I bike a lot and the idea of falling on ...

I thought the same, got the Byrd Meadowlark first and then wondered why my Delica didn't have it. I usually just put my finger on the little space by the ricasso (blunt section) at the bottom, half on that half on the handle tip. Not as comfy but works.

I just ask as I was under the impression w/out liners it was not strong enuff. But I do like the look of the thing and the better blade steel... Thanks.

Have you used one of these long?

Considering a Native 5 Lightweight... but only if the handle has liners. Does it? Any advice on this knife? Thanks.

. It's a great work knife, I would definitely recommend one. Search for the thread 'ok it's time to get serious' if you want to know the inside story of how the wharncliffe delica came to be. Thanks. I will probably check that one I saw out if I go there Friday... I did like the way it handled even...

Well, glad no one got hurt when it came apart. Re: Loose spyderco screws, I noticed when I got my first Delica I switched the clip the first day I had it. After tightening the clip screws, I checked the others, just for the heck of it. The one that apparently held the lockbar was loose enough I had ...

Spyderco Ambitious, my new fav tiny knife...

ZrowsN1s, what's the deal with Warncliff blades? Are they good? Saw a black handle delica with that the other day at the shop, but wasn't sure about it... never had a warncliff before...

Used mine the other day to cut a packing strap that caught on another box and was going to pull a 3 ton car jack off the shelf onto my head. Cut the strap, caught the first box with my other hand, and avoided having something the size of an anvil fall on me like the Roadrunner cartoons... all good. ...
