I Got the SB Delica today. Like it. Like it a lot. I look forward to putting this one through its paces. I was surprised it did not come wrapped in the same paper as the Calys did, but it did come with a heavy amount of oil/grease. Here comes use and the resultant patina. I've been eagerly awaiting this "user"!

It probably did not come wrapped because it is laminated with 420J2. Your patina will be just below the braze line, and a sliver along the spine. I am looking forward to this patina personally.vaisforlovers wrote:I Got the SB Delica today. Like it. Like it a lot. I look forward to putting this one through its paces.

This is a beautiful knife. Enjoy! :)"Note: Aogami Super Blue is a high-performance, high-carbon steel and is not stainless. It requires proper and diligent maintenance to keep it corrosion-free. Spyderco is not responsible for the corrosion or pitting of a high-carbon blade."

Here is a photo. Lighting in my home is horrible, but I tried. I'll try again as soon as I have daylight. I Tuff-glided it right after the picture and will be carrying it tomorrow.
Photos added after a day of use.
I think this one give the best example of what the "Gray" really looks like in daylight. It almost looks like it has blue or purple hue in florescent lighting. I like this sun-lit Gray better.
