Cool.

And the “Buy a FRN Native 5 and get a free Tenacious” for $86 total is a pretty crazy deal...

I'm kinda digging this weirdness. The other Zome's didn't do it for me, but this funky one might get me.

The Zomes aren't for me, but this one would definitely be a hit for Oregon Ducks fans.
Time for another :spyder:!

I'm still not sure if I like it or think that it is about the ugliest knife that I have ever seen. A Wabi-sabi joke maybe? :confused:

I ordered one, very excited to get a Delica with stainless steel blade better than VG10. I can't judge it until I see it in person.

At the end of the day, is S30V better than VG-10? (I’ve got both, and plenty of exotic steel, and VG-10 always does me right).
The first time I saw a Spyderco was the early 90s at a knife shop in a mall. I can still see the SpydieHoles through that glass display cabinet. My parents wouldn't buy any of them for me... so now I buy them all. :spyder:

I'll pass on the Delica, but if they offer an Endura with S30V, I'm there.

(I would have gone with yellow and black.)

I would say that S30V has better edge retention. VG10 gets sharper faster. I like them both a lot.

I'm stoked to have a Delica I can abuse a bit. I baby all my carbon steel knives because I'm afraid of corrosion, like my HAP40 Delica. The color on this new one may be whacky, but I enjoy S30V very much.

Those were my first thoughts. Puddles would carry one for sure.

Is it better than the VG-10 and ZDP-189 versions or just a color choice?
