Favorite Color Delica?

#1

Post by zunedog31 »

I am picking out my Delica today and can not decide on a color. I am torn between the orange or the blue.

What are your favorite colors?

Being that I do not like FRN; I'm going with Foliage Green G-1:D
too bad its discontinued though :(

I only have the British racing Green which is nice. I actually like Foliage green, but that Orange looks sweet! The blue is very popular too.
As mentioned; I do not think you can go wrong with any color and it probably doesn't matter cause you will end up like the rest of these guys and end up with every color anyway :p

I saw a picture of an all black delica that was sweet as well. Its a tough call, good luck in your decision; I'm sure you'll be happy no matter what

Not a huge Delica fan, but I'd love to see the FRN/VG-10 Stretch available in the brown, the green, and the gray that are being used on the FFG FRN Delicas and Enduras.

Like Deacon, I'm not a huge Delica fan. However, with FRN, I like the blue the best, and the brown looks sharp too.

I lean more towards the earth tones, Browns,tans,greys, greens,reds,white. But if I were to pick one it would be... Brown.

Orange and blue for me. Though I prefer the silver clip on the orange model.

I was also torn between orange and blue, and finally picked the orange one :

Of course, it doesn't mean I won't buy a blue one someday.

Green (which would be my third choice) doesn't seem very popular : I'm not sure I've ever seen a green Delica. Does anybody here have one?

When I first saw the orange Delica I thought "sweet this baby looks sick!" then a few days later as I thought about it I was like "I wonder what it is like carrying one". It seems a little flashy to me and the blue looks a little nicer in terms of an edc.

Anyone carry an orange knife?

I have the blue and the green delica; the blue one is a little bit nicer.
But for christmas I got the orange endura and this is an awesome color.
So I've ordered yesterday the Delica in orange. :D

It's funny, years ago that Doug Ritter model was the knife that got me back into knives after a long hiatus. The funny part is, i didn't buy it, i bought another Spyderco lol. But, it caught my attention enough to give me the itch again.

Besides black, my favorite Delica colors are orange, grey and brown.

Out of those three 'colors', I would pick grey as my favorite to carry.

I personally love the Brown FRN and carry it every day. I have both the orange and blue as well as the black and BRG. The kelly green FRN will be my next, but I think the orange is the better looking of tthe FRN colors. I have a trainer red FRN swap planned for one of my EDC blades, but have been really disappointed with the dull color. I wish the red was as bright and vibrant as all the other colors are. Its a shame the G-10 models do not come in other colors. That would be awesome.
