I'm definitely not a Delica guy. I wonder if they'll get around to a Dragonfly eventually though?
I have been wanting a Delica so this is perfect timing! I would love for them to do this for a Dragonfly next though. Those things would fly off the shelves! I'd buy a handful.

Wonder if the clip is black or chrome??? I prefer the chrome with non-DLC blades.

I've got a bunch of spare chrome clips if you need one. Just let me know once you get it if it's black.

Man, that's tempting! I love M390 and that BBS Dark Blue FRN..
Haha, I've been actively trying to buy fewer knives lately and this is not making it any easier.. I think I'm going to need to keep telling myself to be happy with the Delicas I already have, hope this one sells out quickly, and hold out for the Chief..
Ahh! such a nice steel/color combo though..

now what is the price of these going to be?? :confused: hopefully the cost of importing the M390 didn't jack it up too much. plus they charge like $12 or $14 shipping as well where most dealers have free shipping. they are going to need to price these low to offset their shipping.

Meh, I'm out.
I have a SB and Hap40 Delica. Zero interest in this.

Awesome! Thanks for the offer! Their Dark Blue FRN Lil Matriarch exclusive has a chrome clip, so hopefully they decided to keep that configuration. I'm still trying to track down the BHQ Teal Delica with chrome clip from last year. There are never any on eBay. Must have been a small run.

So with shipping $120.00 Hmm not too bad the most expensive I have seen in different steels are around $90.00 so figure most places offer free shipping on orders over 100.00 and you will spend at least $20.00 or more to get free shipping on different Delicas looks like they are right in the sweet spot for Delica lovers.

So $125-130ish out the door after tax and shipping. If it had been a Lil Matriarch I'd have got one. Too rich for me. Cool for people who haven't had a chance to try M390 though.

The individual price is a bit on the high side compared to recent Delica sprints, but cost of importing M390 may have been a factor. I hope they aren't upcharging the individual models in order to push their "bundles" and move stale inventory.
Also, $14.99 s&h to the east coast for 1 or 2 knives, and $26.90 s&h for 3 knives! Dude, 3 Delica's is probably still first class mail. They weigh nothing. How on earth is it $26.90????? :confused: :confused: :confused: :mad:

Bento Box price gouges because they know people will buy their products whether their shipping costs reflect actual costs or are inflated 4-8x.

I too was hoping it was a Para 3 LW but still a little early for a Sprint run. Too bad it's not a Dfly 2 I would have doubled up on that!

I think I'm out on this one too. I have plenty of Delicas, have the dark blue Lil' Matriarch (it is a nice blue), and I have M390 (+20CV & 204P). If it was $108 shipped I'd probably be in.

This is a cool knife to buy for people who just got into Spyderco or super steels. Imagine if you're a noob and all you have is a VG10 Dragonfly, this M390 Delica is the perfect next step up. Do noobs know about BBS...
